Lorelei

She's a shy, meek creature and she appreciates her solitude. She's a thinker, a daydreamer, an observer and a remarkable intellect. Whilst in the company of beings, she holds her tongue. Seldom ever does she speak and when she does, she speaks with purpose and her voice pours like syrup. A hush falls upon those around her and each are listening enthusiastically. They hang on every word that she speaks and when she has finished what she's had to say, the listeners' ears crave the graceful words on which they floated about the room for that short moment or two. She understands more about this phenomenon than any of the listeners had imagined. She's aware of how her words are admired and knows just when to assert herself.
