Kalia laughed at the sudden change of subject. "Don't worry, Pity is the last thing you'll get from me." She murmered under her breath. "The weather? No...I isn't that bad...I personaly would love it, if I was somewhere else aside from this swamp." Kalia smiled in reply. "Would you like to take a brake? I think were far away enough."

A break did sound good, I decided. I hadn't realized until that moment that I was growing thirsty. I nodded, pausing to slip my pack off of my shoulders and pull a waterskin out of one of the side pockets. Taking a quick gulp, I relished the cool water slipping over my tongue, holding it in my mouth for a moment before letting it slide down my throat. I offered the skin to Kalia.
"Thirsty?" I asked.

Kalia smiled, as she accepted a skin. "Thank you." She also took a sip, her mind was else were, she handed the Ailiana the skin, and looked up. That man wasn't the only thing that would go wrong today, or before they get out of here for that matter. "How do you like rain?" Kalia asked out of the blue still staring up.

"It's... yuck." Fantastic, Ailiana. Way to sound intelligent. "I mean, I guess the small sprinkles are all well and fine. But these downpours..." I made a small face to express my disapproval. "I guess you're right, though. If I was anywhere else but in a swamp, I might not mind it as much."
Shrugging, I took another chug of water, swishing it around in my mouth in an attempt to entertain myself.

Kalia laughed. "You don't haveto Pretend...I can see that you are anyhow."

I paused, trying to think back to my thoughts in order to make a connection on what Kalia had said. Oh. Being intelligent. I certainly thought her comment was a lie, but I gave her a small smile.
"Thanks," I mumbled, looking down at the sloppy ground, which was now decorating my boots. I lifted up a leg, crossing it over my other in order to closer examine the muddy mess. This would take a good hour worth to clean off. Throw in a decent bath, and make that two.
I brushed the hair out of my eyes, using the pitiful shelter of leaves to twist the water out of it. My blond waves were slightly tangled, and I raked my fingers through it, trying to comb it out.
"How long have you known you can... read minds and all that?" I asked as I continued to unknot.

Kalia thought for a mement. Trying to go back down the path of her memories, figuring out where it came into the picture. Then it hit her, she remembered. "I was in some town alone, I don't remember the reason, people there always spoke in riddles meaning everything else but their true meaning. I begged the spirits to give me strength to see what they ment in oreder to seperate enemies from friends...Then I heard a music like voice echo in my head that I had that power, I just had to look deeper in my soul...It was less then 4 years ago." Kalia paused. "4 years of a curse..."

A curse? I certainly didn't think of it as a curse. But I wouldn't say so; primarily because it wouldn't matter. Kalia could hear me anyway.
"I guess it would be kind of weird," I agreed under my breath. Hearing everything. Even things you didn't want to know; what people thought of you, for example. "So... can you do anything else? Like, magic-wise?"
It was a relatively lame question; but also one that could provide a somewhat interesting conversation.

Kalia still stared at the ground but managed to break her trance. "Magic wise? Yes, I can. I'm not sure exactly how much, but yea some tricks. Can you?" Her face brightened up at the change of subject.

I chewed the inside of my lip, ignoring the sting. Shrugging, I mumbled, "I can kind of see the future."
Kind of was a bit of an understatement. I recalled the images of death, battles, sorrow. My power was growing every day to the point where it was becoming harder to control. "It's kind of a pain in the butt."

"I know how you feel there." Kalia paused. "Well, seeing things before they happened must be torture...Knowing something your not supposed to is hard..." She smiled at Ailiana. "But, hey! We got to make the best of it."

I frowned, turning to stare at Kalia. "How am I supposed to do that?" I asked, shaking my head. I had already tried to make the best of it; and look where that had landed me. Running away from a power hungry king and getting lost in a swamp.

"How did I manage to get the best of it? With time comes experiance, and the longer you have your...er...Gift the more you can, or should get it under control. By doing so you can choose the time and events you wish to see, insted of it just showing up randomly." Kalia smiled and looked up, getting lost among her thoughts.

I glanced over at her, my eyelids lowered so I could just see under my eyelashes. Snorting, I stared at the ground again. "Look, no offense meant," I began, "but you don't seem to have a lot of control over your mind reading."
It sounded much ruder than I had meant it to. I swept my wet hair out of my eyes. I was going to think it anyway, so why not say it? "It's just that I've had this... this premonition thing my entire life. And it still sucks."

"No...You're right, Should I be the one to speak? My power is still unmanageble...and I had it for only a little, but you should have your's under control...or atleast use it for good and to help people..." Kalia said looking back down.
