Alia picks up on Fajah's discomfort,as her mother taught her how to read people from the time she could toddle. (And it's an important skill for a healer to have.)

She leans forward and whispers conspiratorially. "I've never been so far from home before, but people expect me to know what I'm doing anyway." Hopefully, that little confession will put her roommate more at ease. It's best that they're not too awkward around each other, right?
