She's quiet for a long while, until she finishes the tea. She only moves away from him to set the cup on the table and when she settles back she hugs his arm tightly and brings her legs up across his lap.

She doesn't believe she deserves much of anything good, but he means it when he says she does. So she decides to put her trust in that.

"I'm from Daggerford, originally. I don't remember my mother, and all my father told me about her was that she was beautiful and that she left him because of me." It's another thing that's hard to say when his eyes get so sad, so she turns her face to his shoulder again. "He used to leave me places, but I was good at finding my way home. I thought it was a game we played and that he would get mad because I won. Eventually he took me all the way to Baldur's Gate because it was much too far for a child to walk back and he left me in the Temple District. Figured one of them would take in strays. I was six, maybe seven? So since the start, most people who get to know me decide I'm too much trouble to keep."
