The more Helvil signed, the more frustrated she felt that not a single present individual understood her. Still, though, none moved but the one. He was gesturing and pointing, but did not seem to be speaking. She did not see lips move as she watched, confusion still plain across her scaled features.

Desperately she looked around them at the others, yet none seemed to be as confused as she as to what was happening. No elf among them to explain, to speak a language she'd know.

This is a hat, you wear it.As if explaining to a child that did not understand.
Even if she was, perhaps, the child that did not understand.
