Zella nodded her head at Claudia and greeted her in return. "You mean the twins are not always like this?" she asked her, turning to look at the twins. She turned her head as Claudia greeted Drayth, and noted a hint of disapproval in Claudia's voice. It was obvious that she was contemptuous towards the illusionist. Zella herself knew that she would have to be careful around him. Anyone who could manipulate her mind was seen as a potential threat. It was this feeling that had driven her to learn how to shut her mind to telepaths. Her mind was hers; nobody had the right to read it without her permission.
Zella looked up as Everard suggested they show her around the circus. She did not mind the idea. It was a good way to get to know the other circus members and the routes to different places. "I would like that very much. Thank you." she said, bowing her head slightly. Out of habit, her hand smoothed down her hair on the left side of her face, which contained a very old scar.
