Re: Before Class

At the sound of granite on paper Maven peeked through her fingers. Notes? For what?

Getting a hold of herself, she took a breath, "No no, nothing like that. We simply met while he was on the surface." She knew how strange that alone sounded, a devil going to the surface, but decided not to divulge more to this person she'd just met. No need for them to know how he's gone up at night for reasons entirely related to his own hubris only to end up trapped in the shadows during the day until she found him. Particularly not if she didn't know why he was taking notes. Thus she kept it simple, "I assisted him in getting back to the Neath, and we developed a friendship from there, meeting periodically until I eventually decided to descend to the Neath myself."
