"It's beautiful, isn't it? The view of the sunset from this balcony, I mean."

Kallen, pulled from her thoughts by the wonder-filled words, softened the harshly neutral expression she could not help but wear when dragged by her father or that woman to such formal occasions as the current party. The young woman in frills and bows next to her seemed honestly enraptured by the evening's slowly fading colors. Her pale hair and the rusty red-browns of her gown seemed to glow with all the colors of autumn leaves in the dying light.

"Yes," Kallen finally responded. "It's very beautiful."
