Lyra held her hand still over the page letting Kej touch her, she was probably just as curious of him as he was of her. He mouth twitched as he called her blindness a weakness, but for the most part it was true, she had worked very hard to get to where she was today. "You're very cold." She said at last.

"Do elves really have pointed ears?" with her free hand she reached up and brushed her own soft round ear and got a questioning look on her face.
