The World of Rhune

“Really, you tell your life story to just anyone?” Hannah questioned, her tone light. “Besides, I never said it was strange to share. Just that it was strange for you to ask for my own story in exchange for yours.” Hannah was teasing him slightly now, though she doubted he picked it up. She had changed her own informal tone to match his. In its own right, she was teasing him, but few usually picked up on it. “You should know though, that when I am searching a person I have just met, it is rarely for something in particular. It is merely another way to gain insight on your own story.” Hannah answered another statement of his that she had picked up on right away. “You say I must be higher than you because I am a guest of Prince Trei’s. But who’s to say I am when you are also equally a guest of his, as I cannot think of another reason you would be here,” Hannah raised her eyebrows mockingly. “So, again, I think the real question goes to you first, Demetrey. Why are you here?” Hannah leaned forward and rested her chin on her palm.
