Mistiria looked up at the lion and tilted her head. She hid a smile as she thought about what she would say to her dad if she ever got to meet him. All she knew was his name and the lies her mother told her about him. The thought made her try to hide her anger about what her mother had done to her. Not to mention the lies she was told about the father she was forbidden to meet.
"I would introduce myself to him as his child. Whether he believes me or not it doesn't matter. Then I would tell him my mother's name and if he still doesn't believe me, I will tell him the lies my mother told me about him. I would tell him that it was because of her that I ran away before I even got to meet him. I am his forbidden daughter if there is such a thing as that," said Mistiria looking forward at those around her.
She looked at the lion who stood up for her. She gave him a smile thinking of how to show him her appreciation. There was nothing she could say so she looked in the direction she had just come from.
"Thank you for this opportunity to prove myself worthy to stay here," said Mistiria still looking at the direction she had come from.
