Eden smiles "Huh. Ad then I could finally be myself"

"Maybe he'd want to run one for us. I have the books, if you wanted to read them first."

Then a sigh "My parents think they're of the wevil"

"Well... in a way, it's math? Symon helps me with math."

She looks thoughtful "Maybe I could borrow the ancient tomes after all?"

"Sure! Let me take care of the dogs and we can head to the Barn."

"Tanks" She says

She gamely heads back for the lodge, shooing dogs towads dens. "And in M&M, you can be whatever you want - like, a magician or a bard or a ranger..."

"Or an enchantress with hips?"

"Sure!"

"Wow, it really is fantasy" She follows to help with the dogs

It's a happy ending for the canines! And books forbidden will be sorted over.

Dagmar doesn't really ponder why Eden is so easy to talk to, but she happily chatters away about the game, and dogs, and how proud she is of Tove, and on and on...

Eden does not grow bored, not even really in her heart, she lets the troll do most of the talking but sometimes lets it be known she IS listening and encourages

After all, in the mix are also plain statements that Eden is nice and Dagmar likes her company.

And Eden feels good, and they talk about warriors with weapons and enchantresses with hips.
