Rainn tilted her head and listened to Eyvind talking about the cities. She didn't understand it all, confederation and principality not exactly in her vocabulary, but she knew the basic idea in all his chatter. He hadn't talked much, so to her this was chatter.
Rainn liked his voice and how he looked when he smiled. He made her feel safe. She turned back towards the map and looked at it carefully. She almost looked like she was searching for something, though that was highly unlikely.
"S...e...a... SEA," she spelled and smiled to herself, "of D-i-a-n...DIANA!" she said flashing him another of her smiles.
"There is Sea of Diana." she said and pointed to the southern part of the map.
Then she looked at the map again and it looked like she might have recognized a city, because she could read its name with little effort.
"Port..A-lex-and-rya... PORT ALEXANDRYA!" she said and pointed at the map again.
Then she lost her interest in the map and began hopping around the room with one leg.
