"I think I must continue to borrow it for a time," she says, instead of admitting this directly. "Though it's...more bright, than mine were."
She rubs the fabric between two fingers. It's a dark red color unlike any she's ever seen in fabric--how did they dye it? Reds are difficult colors to manage, second only to purple, which she's never even seen used in clothing.

She keeps having to pull the sleeves up, and finally moves to fold them so they stop draping over her hands. "I wouldn't want to wear it for hunting. Game would see me coming from miles away."
