Anna was grateful for the woman's support in walking, this made the whole thing much more easier on her as much as it killed her pride. She noted the woman's observation about their homes being close, which the wizard filed away as possible useful information. You never knew when a trusting individual might be useful for various tasks. The wizard allowed herself to be led into the sun, which was a little too bright for her own tastes. Leaving the house today had been rather unwise.
Anna noted the small puppy following and narrowed her eyes slightly at the sight. Animals and her tended to not agree, for some reason they disliked her though considering that she was not only a wizard but a servant of Rhysol himself it was not really surprising. She cut her gaze from the thing and instead focused upon the path that they were headed down, the destination clear in her mind.
The wizard noted the question and pondered its answer slightly before giving her answer. Professors were generally well regarded in Zeltiva, a respectable and relatively high ranking position to hold in the city. It had advantages and disadvantages, but it was useful for a person like Anna to possess such a position as it not only allowed her to spread Rhysol's influence but also to satiate her hunger for knowledge.
"I am a professor at the University of Zeltiva. My name is Annalisa Marin. Might I inquire as to your own name? Also, I hope you'll excuse my forward question but are you fully human?" The wizard replied.
She had her doubts that the other woman was indeed human, but it was speculation unless confirmed by her. Anna had a sneaking suspicion that she was Kelvic, but it was just a hunch based on common traits she had observed to be true for other Kelvic she had encountered. They always looked very human but possessed a few tells if one looked closely enough. It could be her hunch was wrong but Anna was always on the look out for non-humans to research.
The more she learned about the world and what dwelled within it, the more wise she became and the more able she was to combat threats. A wizard was not one to take chances when they could be avoided, they could very well cost one's life. Anna had no desire to come to terms with her own mortality just yet.
So she researched and learned all she could, knowledge was power and Anna was always learning. Even now as she was dragged along down the street by another she sought new knowledge.
