"H-hi, Nephele, I'm Quanil. Wait, I already said that." They cleared their throat.
"Uh, I'm looking for my sister, Freina. She's been missing ever since the Fiat Lux festival, and I don't know where she could be. But, also..." They looked around at the trees and the sunlight filtering through them. "It's just nice here. I hope she is here, not just 'cause it'd mean I'd found her, but also because it's such a nice place to be, even if there aren't any books."
They looked back to their new Fae friend. Well, acquaintance. Quanil had learned that "friend" in their book didn't necessarily mean it was mutual. "What brings you here, Miss Nephele? I haven't met a Fae before."
