Out of everyone who could have come up to her and introduced themselves and started to explain the Nexus, Adia is probably the best suited and most helpful. It's not that the others are bad, or wrong, but Adia speaks in terms that Paladin is familiar with, as soon as she mentions the breeding of animals a light goes on and Paladin gets it. Even in her world breeding for strength, gentleness, or other traits is widely practiced. The Tiefling gives a small noise of delight in understanding. "Yes! Ah, yes, I see now, like when it comes to dogs or horses! Or races, yes? Two Dwarves will not have a human child because Dwarf genes are different in some ways than human genes."
Fun fact: half-elves *technically* aren't the result of an elf and another race mating, but that's what is widely accepted so, that's what everyone goes with.
"You are a very good teacher, Adia," and there is such a note of both awe and appreciation in her voice. "I did not go to school when I was young, that option is not open to my race. There was a Dwarf though who would teach me letters and numbers as I helped him in his bakery, you remind me of him. Except you aren't as surly." Which is nice, Paladin is too old for the gruff school of teaching.
Eyebrows raise and she gives a slight shrug at the description, the colors are certainly enticing: almost enough for her to reach out and take one but Paladin hesitates. "Do you like Jello?"
