Talori's emotions had been all over the place since Zale found out about Brennan and sent her away for her own safety. Guilt for deceiving him. Relief that he wasn't about to let the merking marry her off. Sadness for their separation. Excitement about finally seeing the surface. Worry about burdening Brennan.
At least the last one was taken care of because of the water fairy's reassurances. Excitement ended up taking over by the time the long and boring swim tailing the boat ended and she was finally able to meet the much-talked-of Harmony.
She and her boyfriend looked very human, much like Brennan when he had his glamour on, until they made it to the witch coven and all removed them once inside. Elf ears were less pointy than fairy ones but their hair was very long. The only thing that looked different with witches was their glowing eyes. And, as usual, Brennan didn't show his wings.
