Hi!
Yes, this is grammatically correct, but it doesn't sound very good as said by Kerani. Or anyone at all, for that matter – people don't just speak like this anymore. Though this would better suit Ajia than Kerani, I think. Maybe you should change it to "I don't need anything in return" or something similar.
Put commas after "this" and "velum".
Change it to "Then Kerani left", put a comma after "longer" and ditch the last sentence – it's just redundant.
More than.
I think "Well, that's a reason good enough, I s'pose" would sound better. =)
Uncapitalize the "she"s and replace the period after "Shenora" with a comma. Even though the "she snapped/asked/grumbled" would start a new sentence in principle, they should still be uncapitalized.
Put a comma after "horrible" and uncapitalize the "he".
No need for the exclamation mark; the question mark is enough.
I don't think you need the quotation marks in the last "wonderful", you can leave them away. That'll emphasize the irony in her voice.
The women don't fill her mind, but the thoughts do, so change it to "Kerani's mind filled with images [for example] of women...". I would've suggested "memories" but I don't think she'd remember her great-great-great...grandmothers very well
Comma after "weren't".
Comma after "clothes".
I'd change this to "whether he never came to visit".
Overall:
This was a rather good chapter! Kerani's character develops all the time and I like reading this story, it's so different. As you can see, many of the things I've corrected have something to do with punctuation, and that's quite an easy thing to improve on. So with a little more practice, you'll become very good. Good luck and keep writing!

Hey there!

I just wanted to let you know that I shortened your line break (the ~~~~ things). If you make them too long they can stretch out the front page.
