"Really, it's nothing," she repeated.
"Really?" Zeir asked, clearly not convinced. His gaze made her feel a little pressured, and she found it hard to keep her secret any longer.
"Actually… the voice in my head gave me some important information," Roxanna said, lowering her eyes. "It said there's a way for my healing ability to work twice as fast, but it's a bit…"
"What?" Zeir asked when she didn't continue.
"Diabolical? Weird? Or maybe… a little inappropriate," she said with a soft hiss. "It's actually hard to explain."

[Wait? Why does he want to wait?!] Roxanna panicked inside her head. [He should just give up!]
She really hoped Zeir would get tired of waiting for her, but to her surprise, the lizard beastman stayed silent, as if he really had all the time in the world, which was ridiculous.
