Welcome to Gaia! ::

Since it was before chores were handed out Makatza decided to go out for a walk. By the time she was done and made it back then everyone else would be up and ready to go for the day.

She grabbed her small knife and tucked it away in case she needed it for whatever reason. It was a good rule to not leave the house without one anyways. Never knew if she'd need to cut something or someone. Nothing else was grabbed as she headed out the door and onto the road.

Since they lived on the outskirts - to give them more land for farming - she had to jog just a little to get out of view of the front door. Once she was beyond eyesight she slowed down enough to enjoy her walk. Of course she made sure to head around the town rather than through it. Katz liked nature and seeing the wildlife.

She was busy walking when she heard the complaint of someone nearby. Makatza blinked her pure green eyes and looked around. When she located the girl that had said it she opened her mouth to say something but she didn't get the chance before a beast came running up. Her mouth shut and she paused in her step to watch.

When it was discovered that the beast was in face a familiar she seemed to relax a little. "Its hot because you're in the sun." She mentioned before she looked at the beast a bit closer. "Nice scorra you have. Does it have a name?"

She seemed to be interested in the way the scorra behaved. When it noticed her and gave a shriek before hiding she leaned to the side to look at it. Katz blinked a bit but still ended up giggling at it. She also took note of the leaf girl clutching her basket as if Makatza was going to snatch it. She said nothing about it.

"You can travel along the wooded trail then.. or get one of those umbrella things for when it rains." Both options would block the sun from touching the girl's skin. Though she was curious as to why the sun was such a bad thing. Katz loved it. It was nice and warm.

"The thing likely thinks of you as its mom if its still little." And since the girl had called it a hatchling she would bet that was the issue. "I think most bird babies imprint when they hatch." She had heard that from some breeder or another somewhere she was sure.

Less dangerous? Well she supposed so for most. Makatza loved being in the woods though. The cover of the trees made her feel much more at home. "Then an umbrella might be the best option." If the person was unwilling to chance the woods then finding some other cover would be best. "Or I suppose a hooded cloak would work just as well so your hand is free." She brought both hands up so she could point at one.

Katz did notice the bird and smiled at it as it seemed to be trying to find its courage. "Its cute. Definitely thinks of you as mom if you were there when it hatched." She did know that much about birds. Though she had no familiar of her own. Makazta wasn't even sure if she wanted to get one. They tended to need a lot of care and with how forgetful she was it would be a bad idea.

As the girl gave her name she smiled at her. "Nice to meet you Aldara. I'm Makatza." She gave an awkward wave with one hand before dropping both back down to her sides.
