Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Well, I wouldn't be playing at all by that time anyways, I'm sure," Haradhel smiled. "But thank you for the thought. I'm sure Ulrich and Ulani will help us to prepare for it. Come to think of it, if I were to ask either Ulani or Aliya, I'm sure they could show me what a winter out here looks like."

"Elros," Elrohir smiled. "This is Donovan Lau, our employer, and his son Triton Winters, and his daughter Lin."

He was rather enjoying himself at the moment. He liked Donovan well enough now, but that didn't mean that he didn't enjoy seeing the man being surprised now and again.

"How?" Cindy of course hadn't actually seen Ulani or Aliya's ability.

So she didn't know about the wishsong.

Triton chuckled a bit at Lin's question, it was innocent enough he supposed. Lin was one of those children who wanted to grow up tall, probably because she was tired of being called cute.

"It's a pleasure."

Elros looked down at Lin and examined her closely, his face perfectly expressionless. There were many ways that he could answer her question, but there was one way that was particularly slimple.

"How did you grow so small?" he replied to her in a soft voice.

"I didn't grow small, I was born small, I haven't grown yet!" Lin replied back.

Of course she wanted to grow up big like her Daddy, but she wondered if she had to do anything special to do that first. After all, her brothers Yue and Yukito were tall, so was Triton, but he wasn't as tall as her Daddy. While Feng and Ryu were really tall, but they didn't count since it was their talls the cause for it.

"And I was born tall," Elros replied with a gentle smile. "Not this tall, obviously, but very tall, and so I grew very tall. You can do nothing to make yourself either taller or shorter, it is beyond anyone's control."

He rose to his feet again, still smiling gently, and blinked slowly at Donovan and Triton, his cold blue eyes piercing and searching, then looked Lin again. "Even the elves of this land can no longer grow so tall," he murmured softly. "There has not been one like me in many Ages."

Lin wondered if she was told how many Ages there were, she did not think there were a lot, but she wasn't quite so sure. She blinked, but since he said many Ages, that meant that before him there had to be elves older than him, which....

The little wheels in her head began to turn, she couldn't remember if Sir Valemdar was taller or as tall as this man or not.

Donovan could see the glimmer in her eye, as she was thinking, he had a funny feeling Lin just found the person she would like to hang out with. He really hoped she wasn't going to get into any trouble here.

"She's plotting something..." Donovan mused thoughtfully.
