Kali didn't say a word, quietly observing him as he spoke of magic, and family rivalries. She couldn't believe such a thing would exist if it weren't for the proof of her own powers and the training she had to endure. Why didn't anybody in her family ever tell her? Surely, something like this was important!
She couldn't help but blush deeply at her ignorance of her own family's history as he talked on about his. She knew well enough about the branch families and her own family being the main branch. But then again, the only one that mattered in the family were the eldest son and the best mage, which often turned out to be the same person anyway. And given the size of her own family, nobody really gave much notice to her, the only exception being if she got into trouble.
She should be afraid of him, as she was sure that he was much more skilled in his magic than she was with hers despite the fact that water extinguishes fire. But if her aunt taught her one thing, it would be to never panic. It would be of no use to her if she did. He hadn't made a move to hurt her nor did he seem that he intended to. One never knew, of course, but she saw that as a good sign. Besides, he wouldn't be this open with her if he did see me as a threat or an enemy, she reasoned. She then waited until he finished talking, thinking of what to say. Better be honest, she supposed.
"Nope, never heard my family mention you." she said sheepishly as he finished. "Then again... I don't think they would have ever imagined me meeting you like this." she continued as she shrugged.
