Lind was unsure how to react to Lady Oba. She was very powerful, techniques to hide cultivation realms were fairly common and even his Eyes could be fooled, but he did not even sense a formation breaking or any other usual reaction when revealing the truth like she did.
She was still a changeling but she referred to her current shape to her chosen form. It was not something he knew about from the literature on changelings but he recalled a conversation with Senior Skingwalker.
[Changelings seemed like a solution to many of my problems but they weren't. They can change their external form, but inside they remain the changelable aether beast as before. I had to find my own path to understand all life but I feel they were very instructive in looking at different perspectives.]
