Alessa was surprisingly calm as she erased the symbol from the sand. She didn't want to fight either. Her mind was already preoccupied with more important things. She answered Tenel Ka in a soft spoken manner as well.
"Hi, Tenel Ka"
There wasn't anything else said while Alessa was now drawing the Halo of the Sun. Three circles inside of two larger circles. When she tired of that she erased it. Without looking at the woman, Alessa looked out at the lake, and said, "I didn't come here to argue, but to clear my mind."
Alessa noticed the defeated tone in TK's voice, but decided not to say anything about it. She only assumed that she was depressed about something.
