[He'll grab his things as well and Iskender comes along as well, naturally. Though he lets Iskender take flight, circling the air as he follows Mahmut to the well.
He knew what to look for thanks to Guren's description. Though the bit where he said she was 'pretty' was a bit...it wasn't something he had intended to use to begin with. It wasn't something he had ever looked for in a person first. To use it as a standard to find a person seemed even more awkward.
Luckily, long blonde hair and pointed ears are helpful enough. He dips a shallow bow, one hand held across his chest in greeting when he sees her.] It's good to meet you in person.
[ zelda sits at the well, back against the stone, toiling away in her thoughts as she waits. as she sits a shadow from up above gets her head to tilt up and see a large bird circling up above. and for a good time she's entranced by it, only looking down and ahead when she sees someone approach from the corner of her vision. and when he makes clear who he is, she scrambles to her feet and bows as well. ]
Hello, Mahmut. It is a pleasure to meet you. [ she raises her head slightly, still stiff. ] Thank you for taking me as a student. I greatly appreciate your time and guidance.
[There was a moment after he lifted his head, just half a second there and gone again where he looked at her and thought, Ah. I see.. But then his expression smooths into a polite smile again.]
I believe we should all do our best to help each other in a situation like this. [This. As in...yeah. He's not up to really processing it. Hence: looking for distractions.
He scratches at his cheek.]
I should warn you though, I'm not an easy teacher.
[He had nearly made grown men run away after trying to force them to learn how to ride a horse at full gallop in two days.]
[ she straightens up and then deflates a little, trying not to be overly stiff, and nods at his little warning. ]
I've never had easy teachers, so I'm certain you will follow in their footsteps. [ her hands go to her lap and coil together, expectantly. ] But I must learn to be of use. So please, don't go easy on me.
