Welcome to Gaia! ::

She hadn't really thought of that, but the older women was right. Although people were weary of the Obans, especially older Matorians, that was was further back in peoples mind then the extremists one. In a way the extremist war was one way that the people accepted Obans more, due to the fact that the Obans fought with the rest of Tendaji against the extremists. "I couldn't agree more. Some people are afraid of letting go of the past as well, but I find more and more that those who have a mindset of the future are out numbering those of the past."

"They are all beautiful. Though how you manage a household with them and daughters I don't know. My mother didn't allow me a companion until I was older and going back and forth between my mentors house and my family home. She never had one of her own though..." She wondered if she was the reason for that, or if her mother just didn't want one.

She nodded, understanding more of the situation now. "I forget that only Alkidikes are allowed to live on their island. I'm sure your mate is happy to have you here with him. Coming home for the first time must have been wonderful, but to come home with the one you loved and your children I imagine would've been even more amazing."

She couldn't agree more with the other women. Seeing people becoming more and more accepting was something she wished for. Although she hadn't left Oba and Matori just yet she hoped that whenever she could muster up the courage to do so she would be welcomed no matter where she went and not judged upon the color of her skin and where she was from.

She laughed as the woman described her household. She was an only child who lived only with her mother and father so she couldn't even imagine the situation at V'demhe's house. "Well at least you have something to keep you going. The older they get the easier it should be at least, or harder depending on your daughters." Her mother use to tease her, saying she wished she had a son, simply because they were easier to raise. Now Eleina didn't know how much that was true, but she did know that she gave her mother a hard time from time to time growing up.

"What job is he pursuing?" She assumed that a trainer was like a mentor, but maybe other classes or other races called it something use? "Your mate wouldn't be able to go, but would your daughters? I hear that both the Shifter and Alkidike festivals are beautiful."

Yet another thing her mother had once said. The desire to keep ones children young and close to them had to be a strong one. She hadn't asked any other mothers, but she did wondered if it was something that everyone felt. It was funny though, because she knew that she always wanted to grow older when she was young. She always wanted to be bigger, stronger.

"Do you plan on ever having more children? Or are you and your mate satisfied with your daughters." Although her family was small she heard of some people having tons of children. When she was younger she sometimes wished for siblings, but since the woman said daughters she assumed that wasn't a problem in their family.

"A healer! That's wonderful. We can't have enough of those in the world." She herself knew a few healing spells, even if they weren't her specialty. Being able to heal those that were sick was not only useful during battle, but all the time. In her opinion it was one of the most important roles.

"Ah I see. Well something is better then nothing. Maybe one day things will change and if they wish they could stay as long as they wished."

That made sense. "Of course, you two are a team. I'm sure he wouldn't make such a big decision without you." She hoped that they did have more children though, not only because she would be happy with more and more hybrids out in the world but from what she gathered the woman had a good head on her shoulder which in Eleina's opinion would make her an awesome mother.

She bowed at V'demhe, "Thank you for walking with me and thank you for introducing me to your family. If you're daughters are anything like their mother then they must be wonderful people."

She looked towards the house once before turning her attention towards V'demhe. "I have a feeling this won't be the last time we meet, and I can't wait to see how much better your companions are trained then."
