As soon as Aailiyah said that she was a shifter, Allynna had gasped with awe. A shifter! Incredible! Growing up in the kingdom, she'd never really learned much about the other races; a princess lived a sheltered life, and elves weren't really known for interacting with other species much anyway. Never once had she dreamed she'd meet a shifter, same with weredragons and a fire fairy.

Now everyone was busy asking Aailiyah questions about herself. Allynna realized her shocked silence may have come across as rude. She turned to face Aaliyah. "A shifter, really? Thats amazing!"
