4th day of Summer, 511 AV House of Broken Mirrors The Dhani didn't introduce himself or she just didn't catch it among all this hissing and spitting. Still felt a bit insecure that he knew her name and his remained a mystery. It didn't matter in the end, the Dhani would always be one, name or not. “Glad to hear it” A hint of irony could be heard in that statement, but not overall hostility. The initial shock and fear subsided, leaving only unpleasant sense of unsettling anxiety, although she was still ready to run if the Dhani felt a sudden urge for a snack. ”No, I didn't know Dhani worship gods.” Jamisia admitted coolly, hiding her surprise. For a long time she had considered his kind to be like animals and animals don't worship gods. They were just a gathering of instincts and cravings. Why would they need to worship anything? She shook off few petals from her hairs, wondering about the uniqueness of this Dhani. Finally, Jamisia decided to learn his name, maybe he was some strange kind of the snake people? ”Do you have a name?” The girl asked, still trying to keep her voice neutral if a bit cold. ”I have never met a Dhani like you. Only small and fast ones around Ahnatep...You almost seemed nostalgic when speaking about your goddess. ” Jamisia hesitated and stepped closer to the exit from the room as if that observation could anger the snake. The air was thick with sweet smell and she wondered how the Dhani can find his way. Her nostrils were clogged with nauseating aroma. This time Jamisia didn't object his bossing around, since a really big headache began to creep in, probably from the heavy smell, even if it was all bu hallucination. ”How you can find your way when everything reeks like that?” She tried to ignore the darting tongue and focus on mirrors that were oddly calm. Maybe the House decided to release them? Or it was just the calm before the storm? Jamisia, despite still being scared of the Dhani, tried to keep close. Even a snake was better than loneliness in this place. |
