It wasn't that she necessarily disliked her family, it was that she disliked being social, even if that meant interacting with her older sibling. They both tried to make it home at least once in a decade, if not more, though it was rather rare that they both returned around the same time. Fortunately, such moments were brief. Unfortunately, it was proper protocol to visit. That and their mother insisted rather pointedly on the matter.
Personally, Mahat would have rather spent the day buried in research or perfecting her casting. As it was, she found herself casually striding through the hustle and bustle of the Necropolis' market. While she wasn't as persnickety about noise compared to her older compatriots in the temple, she had her limits. The saving grace was that, at the very least, she could pick up another set of robes and, perhaps, more casting materials. Maybe her parents had been right. Maybe she had picked up a touch of Aquilian pragmatism since the treaty.
"So," she began, her stride attempting to match her older, and bigger, brother's. "Mother said you've been spending most of your time to the heathen south, across the water? I can't imagine that retracing our ancestors' steps would be of much educational use."
