[ You would think that a very tall plant man would be difficult not to notice (and, thereby, avoid bumping into), but you would be underestimating how deeply Zelda is absorbed in her thoughts. It's a good thing Trahearne manages to catch her by the shoulders or she probably would've fallen right onto her backside.
As she collects herself, she opens her mouth to offer an apology of her own (no, really, it's her fault for not looking where she's going) but the words die on her tongue when he says her name.
Another person who recognizes her? Zelda's memories of her past time in Songerein are still unfurling and sorting themselves out in her mind. Over sixty years have passed for her since she disappeared, but apparently only a fraction of that time has passed here.
So instead of greeting Trahearne like a normal person, Zelda is caught staring up at him, searching his (very familiar) face for a name that goes with it. ]
Forgive me, I am... still reacquainting myself with this place. [ Then she realizes- ] You knew that I was gone?
