"I-I don't know I just could," replied Arya, eyeing Cassandra at the corner of his eye.
{Do you think she heard anything?} asked Arya.
{I don't think so. She didn't seem to be able to talk to Errol without her mind link, so I doubt she knows anything unless Errol told her. But why? Shouldn't we tell her what we are?} asked Esla, confused by Arya's secretiveness.
{And what exactly are we? What if she tells mom? You know how she can get. If she finds out there's a chance I may not be fully human, she might have a breakdown. She might even think that we are suspicious of her cheating on...} Arya couldn't bring himself to complete the thought. But with everything that was happening, there was a possibility that he might not even be Neel's son. In fact, it might be the same for Armin, since they were the only ones capable of using magic.
{I see,} replied Esla, understanding why Arya wanted to keep things a secret.
