Emille continues past Héctor's "oh": "Yes. I have nothing to conceal."

But before she can speak any further to that topic, her expression softens when Héctor says he can commune with spirits. It's not that she can't speak with Aitelle, but the few minutes they are allowed once a month are precious. And it would be a lie for Emille to deny that she would like more time with her sister. Yet... Aitelle's spirit is a different case, from what she has gathered. All because of the way she died, at the teeth and claws of Dragons.

"I... I see," she hesitates to reply, trying to restore her serious façade. "I did not know that you could speak to spirits. Unfortunately, I am not sure you would be able to reach my sister." Emille's gaze drifts off into the crowd on the dance floor.
