Snippet #2495505

Auriel watched the creature in front of her and took note of how he wasn't eating. Perhaps these creatures didn't eat food? Or maybe they didn't have food like this on this planet? These questions ran through her minx, but then if dawned on her that he didn't trust her. Why should he, her people did just take him captive after all.

Now her mind went to how she was going to get him to trust her. If he didn't and he was similar to her kind and he continued to refuse to eat it could end badly. Last thing she wanted was for him to die.

When his questions came she sighed as she realized she didn't have a complete answer for the first question. She hadn't talked to her father to find out truly why he was here. Instead she had just asked around the ship about what was going on.

"Well," she started, trying to choose her words. "I was told it's because they want to learn more about your species. They were not expecting to come across intelligent life on this planet so I would assume they want to study your behaviors. Perhaps in order to find out if we can maybe share this planet? I'm not positive on this because I have yet to talk to my father, he's not too pleased with me at the moment." She hoped this answered his question to where he was at least satisfied.

Next was the question about what she wanted from him. "I don't WANT anything from you. I saw them bring you in and I grew curious about you." She shrugged, knowing it wasn't very convincing but it was the truth. She had nothing to gain from talking to him. "Plus I figured you may need a friend, so here I am." She said with a friendly smile, hoping it may calm him some.
