Shiva is keeping her eyes practically glued on Nathan, in a casual and non-threatening way. It was almost curious. That was, before he aired his thoughts on what she just told in a way that was everything else than friendly, but at the same time...
You could have expected such a reaction from him.
Now that I think about it... I could and should.
Nevermind, my dear - at least now he has the info, what he does with it is his call.
I did nothing wrong, did I...?
No, you haven't.
...She was aware of how stubborn he could be or already has proven himself to be. Ven told her his patience and tolerance tpwards this was even thinner, she got the feeling that now she understands a bit better why this is so. She was also aware of his (Nathan's) unopen mind towards anything that cannot really explained by science, the logical thinker prefering to keep oneself grounded to the earth. Magic and elusive things had no room in such a mind.
Speaking of Ven, when Nathan gave that look to him and directly and openly spoke out what he though, that look Shiva gave Nathan evolved into a silent cooled glare that Apsis would stop in wonder to admire in awe. It only lasted for a second though, so when Nathan looked back at her, it was already toned down to a lesser degree, which was a pretty unimpressed expression that might speak enough for now. She let Ventus speak before she replied to Nathan, but before that could happen, she finally moved her gaze away from that stubborn young Trainer and his psychic dancer to look at a familiar oddball of sociologist instead. The look she gave him was a silent appeciating one for he isn't loosing hope, while everything of her was silently yet directly telling him:
'No, don't ask for forgiveness. This feels not correct.'
She even 'concidently' brushed his hand before slowly turning her gaze away and back to Nathan. She looked back at him before actually speaking up, when she did so, her voice was lower and neutral. The soft tone was hidden between the lines, she was still ignoring any stains of tears. "I would not call this 'magic', Nathan. More like...folklore. The people of this village value their myths and tales, so for them it is real enough. Your thoughts don't have to rhyme and you can dissmiss it as unreal, but please don't speak for others. My own belief in the mysterious and magic and in this ritual being real as I read and heard enough about it are proof enough for me to believe in it being done as well as me being able to do it if preparations are fruitful. There's also a Professor and Reverend in this village, you'll certain find him if asking around for a little. He breeds Starter Pokemon for new Trainers, and he told me that he succeeded and completed the ritual, experiencing the finest moment of his life as they flew together is what he said."
"We don't have to do this. However, why should we throw away this source, especially if I already looked into things, have the lyrics for the ritual, Ven agreed to keep and already repaired his Shamisen just for this, and I have the feeling that it has a high chance to be the right path?" Her voice only got more serious the more words she spoke, until discontent got mixed to it. "You want to go to the Great Divide, ignoring everything I've found out and continue doing things your way and keep on burdening yourself with the whole task of saving the city from these vines? Fine, you can do so, but you'll do so alone. I'll start preparing myself for the ritual meanwhile and eventually me and Ven will pay the Mamo in the Nature Preserve a visit. You can gladly tagg along as well, but please don't burden us with your pure disagreement if doing so."
Next, Shiva slowly looked away, leaving the words dwell and responses income. Her expression was still neutral, but inside she was clearly disappointed and hurt by Nathan's thoughts on the plan and her theory. Had he that litte faith in her?
