He scanned the surrounding trees in more detail, “They do have a strange, but beautiful aura about them,” he said at last, “although I’d like it better here if there was a nice, big river or lake nearby. So, are you from New York then?” He inquired, remembering that there was a Central Park in New York City.
Aella raised her brows, the fire on her arm dulling until it died out. She shrugged at him. "Fine, then. No need to be so aggressive about it. I didn't do it purposely." She muttered, moving past him and vanishing into the center of the group.
