Private Finished {agodr} Running Some Truths and Lies

Zora was often good at spotting things and knew that sometimes the oddest things were often the truth. The girl before looked like she could have sisters, and as strange as it sounded Zora suspected the last one might be true.

"I think the lie is the one about fighting a bear."

Zora just nodded, aware of at the fact that the girl had done very much what she had done by altering slightly what would have been a correct answer to make it wrong. It was a good strategy,

"I am a witch." Zora said with a small smile, "My magic is non-elemental magic, runic magic. I can tell when somebody is cursed. I am cannot be bound by magic."

"Actually that is a truth. I can't be cursed," Zora said with a grin, "I am actually a water witch. I can manipulate water. I am terrible with runes." she laughed. They both had a loss now.

"Your turn," Zora said as she looked at her regalia and got an approving nod.

At her words, Zora actually looked at the young woman again, thoughtfully considering her, trying to judge which statement did not suit her.

"All three statements could be true in equal measure. You don't look old enough to have fallen completely and madly in love yet, however..." Zora added, "I love you could be easily said to a family member," she surmised, not about to comment on the sexuality of the girl. Zora had actually been having sex since she was fourteen and so she knew that could easily be true or false. She also didn't feel right about saying Ria wasn't a virgin, somehow, Zora thought it might be insulting and steered away from the topic.

"I think the I love you statement is the lie," she said looking at Ria calmly.

Zora was not shocked to hear the girl wasn't a virgin, it had been at the back of her mind that it might be the correct answer but she hadn't felt she could state that. What did actually shock her was that the girl had never said I love you to anyone before, and found herself, without warning saying what was on her mind,

"You should you know. Tell people how you feel," Zora said as she looked at the girl kindly, "I almost lost someone I care for deeply, someone I love, and the idea of him not ever knowing, or him dying and not knowing, makes me... " here she stopped, she couldn't describe the anguish she felt at almost losing Broen, it had been undeniably heart-wrenching, and she didn't want others to be like she had been. Closed up and not wanting to let someone in, or not letting others know that she actually cared.
