 Illuminata had been dealing with a bit of artist's block. No matter how much she tried, she couldn't come up with anything new or inventive. Nothing new had come in that she could use for her Unity piece, otherwise Florizel would have told her. Trade with the Fire Tribe had been put on hold with the war or something going on there and there never seemed to be enough Alpacow wool.
Pacing through her workshop, she sighed. She needed some sort of muse! Something to shine light within her heart again! Something to motivate her towards greatness! She supposed she could get something out if she spent time with her family. Maybe something night sky themed, like her beloved Ecthelion... No, even that didn't feel right, and he was the most right thing in her life!
She dug her claws into the ground with frustration before heaving a great sigh. Inspiration wasn't going to fall from the sky, she told herself. If she wanted it, she would have to go out and look. So she would start with scale collecting, because at the very least that would help Lucent, even if she was unable to find any scales that inspired her. So, she left her workshop with empty bags on her back, ready to look for anything, or anyone, who would catch her eye and brighten her inner light.WC: 229

What to do, what to do. That was a constant motto currently for Kamala. The silver-eyed, red scaled Nan walked through the district observing the life and skills everyone displayed. There were merchants and artists, all buying, selling and trading yet most importantly all of them had a purpose. It was a great purpose that Kamala wished she would be able to discover. As gentle-natured as she was and even a little bit shy, it has taken until this moment in her life's journey to decide she wanted to be a part of the fold of her tribe, to be useful in some shape or form. Yet she didn't know how to go about knowing what to do and how to do it. Kamala....knew she needed to be an active member of her tribe but establishing herself was the first step. Though every day that she had traveled she was able to see how life worked in mysterious ways to bring miracles and opportunities to everyone who would be aware of it. She was ready to embrace them.

Illuminata must have been blessed by the Weaver himself, for she didn't have to walk long before she came across a lovely Nan walking through the District. With wide golden eyes, she observed the other, who was a solid red with distinct pale eyes. Rarely had she seen a b'alam of a solid color, especially in such a vibrant color and she found herself drawn to the other. She suddenly wanted to make things to compliment this coat, but she had a nervousness that made her wonder that if the other left, would her muse go with her.
So, as she saw it, there was only one thing that she could do. She had to convince the Nan to come back to her workshop with her. So, without futher adieu, she stalked right up to the vermilion female.
"Greetings!" She chimed with a smile on her maw. "I do hope I'm not being impertinent, but I saw you from across the way and I had to come up and tell you what a beauty you are!" She went on, without taking a breath. "You see, I'm an artist here and when I see someone as breath-taking as you, I need to approach them." Now she paused, took a moment and then asked. "I don't know if you've got anything to do today, but if you're so willing, could you help me with a project I'm working on? You see, I haven't been able to create anything of any substance lately, I don't have the muse for it, you see. But seeing you, it makes me want to create! You're inspiring, my dear! You'd need only come back with me to my workshop and naturally I'd pay you for your efforts, so long as you don't mind it being in jewelry." She looked at the other hopefully and then perked her ears in realization.
"Oh, dear! Where are my manners? I'm Illuminata, by the way. It's a pleasure to meet you, Nan...?" She trailed off, waiting for the other to supply her name.WC: 342

Kamala jumped with her fur standing up at being startled by the appearance and greeting from another Nan. Blinking slowly, she looked around to figure out where she had came from but looked right at the Nan with wide eyes and a slight smile. She was a beauty? Kamala didn't think so especially when she was a completely solid color and the majority of her tribe seemed to be of light and soft colors. Focusing, Kamala listened to the Nan stated that she was an artist and that she had to be approached. Chuckling, the deep red Nan relaxed, shaking her head. "It is very nice to meet you Nan Illuminate. I do not know much about art but I know that I believe you may be mistaken with one such as me among already beautiful colors surrounding you. Though my name is Kamala and I am new here but if this is help you require I would be more than happy to oblige." Kamala felt a curiosity stir within her at the artist Illuminata especially when she didn't have anything in particular to do.

Illuminata waved a paw dismissively.
"Oh, piff. I'm always surrounded by light hues and scales that shimmer, but you are a new kind of beauty entirely, Nan Kamala." She smiled broadly. "And in that, I believe your newness is exactly what I've been looking for. Follow me, my dear, and I'll show you to my workshop." She told the other and quickly turned, her tail coming around to rest on the ruby Nantil's shoulder as she led her back on the path to her workshop.
"Now, you said that you are new here. Where have you come from?" She asked the other curiously. WC: 103

Chuckling Kamala nodded before following Nan Illuminata with a slight blush that added to her already red hue pelt. "Thank you very much, Nan Illuminata." The Nan followed while also looking at the world around her to take in the sights, sounds and sensations of the vibrant life as well as the vibrant pelts and scales of her fellow kin. Red ears perking forward at the voice of the artist, Kamal tilted her head to the side and looked thoughtful with her silver eyes smiling as bashful as the smile that tugged at her maw. "I....I don't know exactly where I have come from to be honest. I don't know if it has a name but the only thing that I know is that I awoke southwest of here where it was a little warmer and from that spot I have just explored until I found my way here....my way home with my kin. Have you been here all your life?"

Illuminata turned her ears towards her companion as she learned of her travels, though she did not know where the Nantil spoke of and it seemed that Kamala herself didn't know either. She smiled indulgently at the other all the same.
"Well, I'm certainly glad you managed to find yourself here of all places, rather than anywhere else." She told Kamala, her tail patting the female's shoulders appreciatively. "How else would I have found such a muse? Certainly not in my own family, though they are a sight to behold." She gave a happy sigh, thinking of how her family's scales reflected the stars above. At the question that was presented to her, she was brought back to the present.
"Yes, indeed. I've never been away from the Light Tribe. That may sound, well, odd to others. I know a great many that come and go travelling and the like, but I've never seen the need. One of my dear friends, Stella-an Earth triber, comes to our tribe to do business with my son, Florizel, as she's a traveling merchant. I don't think I could do that, have my workshop be something I could set up on the road. No, I much prefer a stable workspace." She prattled on.
"Luckily, my family has kept close too. I don't mind them moving to other districts, but the thought of Florizel or Inlustris leaving the Light Tribe forever, oh banish the very thought of it." She shuddered, looking ahead to find that they had arrived. "Oh my, we're here already? Weaver, that certainly didn't take as long as I thought it would." Her workshop, rather than be a tent like one might see a healer put out, was unusual. It was underneath a crystal tree with enough space beneath the tree that a few b'alam could sit comfortably beneath. It was a place that was very special to her, for it was along this very tree that she had been woven.
"Well now, let's get you inside--unless you prefer standing out here? I'll work around your needs and preferences, so you just let me know. I'll just need to grab some materials in my workshop, if we're doing it outside. Then we can begin. Sound good?" She asked with an excited smile.WC: 380

Fascinating. Life flourished well and strong within this tribe of hers and it was interesting to hear a different perspective of Nan Illuminata. As they came to her workspace, Kamala looked up with widen eyes at such glorious between of her hostess' crystal tree. Coming to a stop at the entrance, silver eyes looked on the kind Nan and shook her head. "I would be honored to be inside this glorious example of beauty from the Grand Weaver." She said gently then chuckled softly. "And please feel free to tell me what you need of me, again this is new and a first for me so please, you are my hostess and director, so to speak and respectfully." Kamala bowed her head respectfully to the artist.
