Hearing K'luha's voice she carefully pushed the tent flap wider; still hesitant to cross the threshold into the darkened interior. She'd rarely been before the elders personally, and never before in such circumstances that even the Nunh himself had not been welcome to preside over the discussion.
She shuffled her way to a spot near to K'luha, eyes glued to the floor, only half aware of what she was doing, overthinking K'luha's simple question.
'Good news first, and I can give them my report and be out of here quickly. But then the expedition will seem like a complete disaster.Â
If I hold the good news til last, then it'll underline that the expedition was anything but a waste - however, that means..."
K'haali cuts off her selfish train of thought as she sat down, folding her legs and dropping the a small sack into the gap. K'luha was going to have a hard enough time, without her plotting to get out of there quickly and leaving her to explain all this by herself unsupported; besides. K'luha still hadn't given her the full versions of events either, and she hadn't wanted to push for the details...
"Let's get the worst over with, from there on it's all good news..."
