"So, what or who are you?" that is a question that I do not know how to answer, cause seriously I am just a normal human who works way hard but does not get compensated the same so I did the most normal thing a being can do when meeting someone new
"I am Zoe, I live in the city Seit 19 years old" they look at me, judging me, the purple one spoke
"Hi Zoe, I am Lav a siren and I am 157 years old, the one with the red skin is Bate he is a dragon 154 years old, yellow is Tim he's a wizard while the green one is Gir an elf he is 160 years old" while Lav is introducing them they wave their hands when their names are called and holly smoke they are old. Tension is in the air until Tim spoke
"you are young" he said it in an accent I just do not what
"well I am already considered an adult where I am from and normally people from my place do not even reach a hundred or look that young after 50" because while they might be over a hundred, they look as if they are in their late teens or early 20s and I gotta say they have the looks. Lav has this model aura and body but also has this seductive face that guarantees death if you cross her, however her body shines cause of the scales that is placed randomly around her body and her hair that reaches the floor in this beautiful shade of blue not to mention an amazing voice, Tim has this sort of dreamy nerdy look but his aura speaks intelligence like he will know if you lie to him and if it weren't for his yellow skin I would assume he is a human like me, Bate speaks danger like mess with him and you are dead, and Gir looks like someone who will enjoy toying with you first before killing you they all have this sense of wariness in their eyes and I can feel that they do not like me.
"Zoe what are your species called?" Gir's question shooked me out of my thoughts
"Humans that is normally what we are called" I said though I can see that they do not recognized the word which is different for me cause I am familiar with their species name like I grew up knowing stories about fairies, mermaids, wizards, the tooth fairy
"Tim are you familiar with her specie?" Bate asks I can sense that they are apprehensive yet excited to find out about something new, " I do not know..." the three looked shocked at this and it seems like they forgot I am here
"Huh? You don't know? Like you are not familiar?" Gir asked in disbelief like it's the first time Tim does not know the answer they looked at him for an explanation
"Throughout my studies about the different species in our realm I have never once encountered the term human actually I don't think I have ever encountered it at all it's like the term humans does not exist in our realm"
