[Inessa listens with sympathy, and Garahel gives a soft whine as well. She remembers alienage life to a degree, but she was also taken while barely out of toddlerhood. However clear some memories might be, there is still much she did not witness. That would include the lives and difficulties of the elfblooded, as well.]

In time, I hope the difference will be clear. An alienage is always in need, in one way or another. There won't be a lack of means to prove yourself, I'm certain.

...but I will not speak over what experiences you have, either. I'm sorry you met with suspicion rather than acceptance. It's a view I can't understand and perhaps never will, spending more time in a Circle than an alienage. [Growing up in the Circle, she didn't think twice about working alongside and living with humans, elfblooded or otherwise. What mattered, what set them apart, was their magic.]
