Jun was rather self-absorbed during her recounting of some of the Land-Tiller's lore. Her frustration came from the shadows of a once raging jealousy Jun once had towards her grandmother, a jealousy which might have taken her down a very dark path. All she needed to do, a simple thing yet totally out of her reach, was create a pool of light and a pool of darkness, one in each hand. If she could do this, she could cast some of the most powerful spells the world had ever seen.
But she couldn't, and she never would. And for an overachiever like herself, this took a great deal of effort to come to turns with.
She suddenly became aware of Keph's feelings when she saw his determined look and thumbs up. She suddenly realized how brave Keph was, so much so that it actually made her a little wide-eyed. Everything she was dumping on him, all the pressure, and all concerning a mysterious and powerful abomination from another world, and there he was, determined and adorable-looking.
"Keph..." Jun reached out and put a hand on his shoulder. "You're a brave young man, and not the stupid reckless kind of brave that I am... well except when you're eating you human drug trip you." She chuckled and pulled the hand away. "I'll be honest. I don't know if I'm the most qualified person to help you and Rara. Magic is one of the most mysterious forces in the world, and even I know only a fraction of all there is to know out there. So, I'm not gonna make you do anything you don't wanna do. And I'm not gonna pretend I'm the most qualified person to do this."
She grinned. "But if you'll let me try to help, I can promise I'll try really, really hard not to screw up."
