Lily nodded enthusiastically. "Sure, I love tea," being greeted in such a friendly way he soothed her.
She was a beautiful girl, sociable and curious. Maybe too much sometimes. But one quality Arius would surely appreciate was that Lily knew she was ignorant and was there to learn.
She sat down composed, waiting for tea. It was evident that she was quivering to ask the great wizard questions about magic but she didn't want to pester him.
When she saw Arius magically ignite the fire her expression turned vaguely guilty, as if she were remembering something.
She wasn't very good at hiding her thoughts and at that moment she thought that mastering that magic would have been very useful a few days ago, already.
