[The Sanctuary] Letting Feathers Fall into Place

[Venya]

Venya gave a nod. “I agree,” she replied to the the healer before her, “And I will be sure to seek your brother out. Guess the sooner the better on learning how to defend oneself.” The Konti gave a small smile, putting Vanator’s description in her mind. He shouldn’t be that hard to find with Kavala's description in mind. Venya just hoped she would be able to put her nerves aside in order to talk to him. Talking with Kavala was so far proving to be hard enough for her when it shouldn’t have been. Venya could barely imagine how tight her stomach would get when introducing herself to Vanator. She sighed softly. Nerves were something she needed to get rid of. They were just going to hinder her. As they continued to talk and finish off their food, Venya started to become more at ease. More comfortable with the situation. Still, the nerves weren’t gone. The Konti found herself questioning herself a lot. Wondering if she was saying or doing the right things. It felt as if there was an unseen pressure in the room and only she could feel it. It was a feeling Venya had never grown used to for lack of experiencing it enough. She never before cared enough to worry about it. Now that the care had come, the pressure had as well. Moving was helpful, taking in information. The facility was large. So many different elements to it. Including a prison which Venya couldn’t help but wonder about. Has it ever actually been used? If so for who or what? Venya couldn’t help but wonder. As they moved back upstairs the Konti tried to recall where all the places downstairs were. Already the exact locations were slipping from her mind. She could vaguely remember where her room is and the training area. That last one she tried really hard to remember, sure that she will be needing to use it after her meeting with Vanator. Still, it was a lot to take in. As they toured the above part of the facility, there was more information. More learning. Venya listened. Trying to soak in as much of it as she could at one time. Looking to Kavala once they have stopped, Venya thought on her question for a moment. She gave a nod. “A couple really. Not necessarily related to one another,” she began, more at ease with herself than before, “You have mentioned multiple skills that would be.. beneficial for me to learn and I was wondering is there any others that I should make a point of working on? Anything that wouldn’t necessarily be required but useful and helpful around here.” She bit the skin of the inside of her lip softly. She wasn’t quite sure if that is what she wanted to say, but it didn’t matter the words were already out there. “Also, I was wondering, do you have resident birds here? Or are the birds that Chalce works with all owned by other people?” she asked, more sure of herself with this set of questions. “Also, when would be a good time for me to meet Chalce?” Venya’s voice dropped down a note with her last question. It wasn’t that she was nervous asking it, for she would like to know when a good time to meet the Inarta would be. Knowing the would have to meet sometime if they are to be working together. The Konti is just not fully sure of herself yet. It is a process that seemed to be taking longer than Venya would have liked it to. “Shall I seek her out and introduce myself to her as well or would you like to introduce us?”
