Kayala, though she had never taught anyone a language before, did her best to inform Uriel of the basics. She taught him words such as "what" and "traveller" and "food" as well as phrases like "I don't know" and "I can't understand". Although she wasn't really sure if he actually would remember anything, Kayala was just hoping Uriel would catch on quickly.
After about forty-five minutes of this, a stranger came into the hut. It was a little girl—maybe ten or eleven?—who hadn't been tattooed yet. The girl had shoulder-length jet black hair that matched her wings. Raven wings, Kayala decided.
The girl stood there for a second, first staring at Kayala's tattoos but then quickly switching her area of focus to Uriel's wings. The girl walked to them before saying, "Come!" in commoner's tongue. With her accent, it sounded more like "Ka-um!" She quickly turned away, ran back towards the door, and waited.
