Nuru grinned at Rie. "Well, Alasse is dancing with Firramer, and when those two are done, I'm sure he wouldn't object."

Rie nodded. Nuru studied her friend carefully. Her hair had been done up with great care. After all, why not? Today was a special event. Nurumaiel suddenly felt a little ashamed of her own hair, just falling loose. I would have liked to do it up like Rie, she thought. Why did she think that? She silently scolded herself. What was wrong with her. Ever since she had met Rie she had become more and more interested in the mortal ways.

Firramer looked at Alasse as they danced. The music had changed now. They had hardly spoken any words but with their whirling around the Hall he felt like he had known her for a long time.

Don't think you've known her for a long time, not yet, he thought. Wait until you know her better... she might not like it if you call her Princess or Lady. She might not....

On they whirled, Firramer to shy too say anything, but wishing that something could break the silence between them.
