Feeling the light touch on her hand, Tahj turned with a smile to K'mih, only to have it fade to puzzlement as her sister dashed off like she'd seen a ghost. She glanced around to see what could have frightened the girl but saw only the male by the tent. She didn't have time to think on it long, as she heard K'luha's voice call to her from inside the large tent.
Tahj was sure she was going to be sick, never had she been so nervous. She paused just before entering, eyes closed, to gather her wits and attempt to control her flip-flopping stomach. Taking a deep breath, she nodded respectfully to the male and pushed open the tent flap and stepped inside.
Taking a second to let her eyes adjust to the absence of blinding light, Tahj spotted her aunt and K'haali, and moved to be closer to them. Surprise registered briefly on her face as she spotted the elders, surely she had never seen a miqo'te so old. Recovering her wits and manners quickly, Tahj forced her ears and tail to a more respectful, yet friendly postion and remembering handshakes might be appropriate, she thought for a second as to how to greet such respected personalities. She swung into a deep bow and spoke clearly with a voice that didn't shake too much,"Hello I'm K'tahjha Yohko, but my friends call me Tahj."
