She felt it like she was witnessing a crucial moment, although she couldn’t say why. Mynthae was speaking with the Children of the Water in a way she never saw in no one else, that people with cold eyes and emotionless words were really listening to all the boy had to say with something different from distrust.

Mynthae alone knew the words the crystals would listen to, that way they were able to introduce themselves and made them consider their plan about gathering the remaining Antiques free in an alliance powerful enough to free the ones trapped in The War and, then, fight against the Magicless.

Emisya felt kind of satisfied about how Vonaxie and she expressed their ideas because even if the crystals decide to stay hidden, they would known that the effort was done and, maybe, new ideas for persuasion would be find.

With that in her mind, she let the eight Children of the Water left their sight in order to discuss in privacy their thoughts. However, her mind lost its peace when Mynthae left to the opposite side that the other group took; since his part in the friendly treat ended, he returned to his usual silence although it looked to Emisya as something different in a way she couldn’t explain.

Firstly she noticed the unease the boy felt when the leader from the crystals showed in front of him; then, when he claimed “the mist”, the whisperer looked kind of calm with just a little bit of unease still in him. At the end of the conversation, when they decided to take their time to talk, his serenity broke down making him looked a bit angered.

Vonaxie was always amazed by how she read the cold whisperer and even she was equally surprised without a clue of how that was possible considering the few days she had knowing him. It wasn’t because his face was an open book, she thought that it could be because she felt his aura change or something related with her half breed origin.

That aura was the thing that made her think about the crucial moment in their lives, she felt the variations in it in a way too hard to explain even if she was almost sure of what she felt. Those things were the ones which made her believe that her other half of her blood wasn’t a lie.
