"That could very well be why." She agreed, then added, "I've never been away from home so I wouldn't know. I suppose I would miss my home as well. The farthest away I have been away from Xannyia's home is where she found me when I grew up." Sarria thought about it a bit longer before continuing, "Or maybe the shoppe is farther away than that. I'm not sure."

"Maybe you could come visit Greece with me sometime. It's really pretty, and you don't feel homesick if you're only visiting." Aurora thought about what Sarria had said.... she'd started thinking one thing, and one thing only.
"You need to get out more. There's hotsprings, and they're perfect during winter. And I'm sure there's other places around too."

Sarria smiled at Aurora, "I would like that. And yeah, I guess I should get out more..." She trailed off as she started thinking about doing so as well, "Hotsprings you say? That might be nice and relaxing." For a few moments, the simu let her mind drift off, imagining what that might be like. "I take it you've visted the hotsprings? What are they like?"

Yet again, Sarria was out in the backyard of the shoppe area. This was where she often went when at the shop, finding it to be a peaceful place to relax at. Just like last time, she had sat herself down by the pond area and was watching various fish swim by while thinking about a few things. The Simu eventually poked at the water, tracing little designs in the water's surface and watching the ripples for something to do.

Yeste' wondered out from the shop and into the backyard. She hadn't noticed this place before, but then again, she never paid much attension to such things.
She had left the mannor to get some fresh air to train her powers in. It wasn't that the air at the mannor wasn't fresh enough, it was plenty fresh. Yeste' just liked getting out and exploring, at least she thought so. Maybe if the mannor wasn't so dull and empty...
If only it was like the castles like I read about in those books of Sao's...
Yeste' sighed as she thought, walking further out into the yard. She wasn't paying attension (again) and stumbled upon the pond. She didn't touch the water, or almost fall in, but she was watching the ground and she saw it. The edge of the water in the pond... This sent chills up Yeste's spine and she hissed at the water and started slowly backing away from the water as if it were a monsterous beast ready to pounce on her.

Sarria had been about to start humming to herself when she thought she heard a hiss? Turning her head, she saw the other and was now quite thankful she hadn't started humming. How embarrassing that would be. "Hello?" She smiled, a questioning look forming on her face as she watched the other back away from the pond. Thinking something might be wrong with the water, or that the other girl might have seen something in it, she quickly withdrew her hand and backed away from the water herself, "Is everything all right? Did you see something?" Brushing any dirt and the likes that might have found their way onto her back while she was sitting she eyed the pond suspiciously, trying to see if she could spot whatever it was she thought the other girl had seen.

Yeste's head snapped around when she heard the other girl speak and when she saw someone else was around she quickly composed herself. Though she kept a weary eye on the water.
"No... nothing is wrong. I just," She paused and looked at the water with a look that would kill it were it a living thing. "Don't like water..."
Yeste' turned her attension on the other girl, thinking that she looked oddly familiar...
"Do I... know you?"

Letting out a loud sigh of relief Sarria relaxed a bit, "Oh, I see. For a moment I thought you might have seen something in it." She laughed at herself and glanced at the water and a fish or two. Walking back over to the pond's edge, she slipped her sandals back on and headed in the direction of Yeste'. "Hmm, I'm not sure." She began, "You might have, but I can't remember much of my childhood." After another few seconds of silence her face lit up slightly as she remembered who this was and where she had seen her before, "You're the red girl I met in the shop! I'm sorry, but I don't remember your name."

Yeste' smiled lightly as she looked at the girl. She reconized some features about her from when she was small, but not many.
"You seem to have had a growth spurt since I last saw you. I'm not sure if I told you my name. I'm Yeste'. Yeste' Tel' Avathar."
Yeste' held out her hand, she had met the girl before and found her to be likeable.

"Yeste'" She repeated to herself to make it easier to remember, and held out her hand as well to shake Yeste's hand. "It's good to see you again. And yes, I have had a 'growth spurt'." She smiled, happy she was able to talk/communicate with others more easily now. "How have you been since I saw you last? Well I hope?."

"I'm not bad, so that must count for something. I've been horribly bored, but that hasn't changed since I last saw you."
Yeste' stood back and took a look at the now taller girl. Why was everyone older and bigger than her all of the sudden?
Size is of no concern to me, I'll prove myself to be just as powerful at this small size as I would if I were a giant!
"I notice that you've been able to 'splerge' on your red fancy." Yeste' smiled. She liked red too, though black was a much nicer color, red was in close second.

"Yes! I have." Sarria exclaimed, sounding quite happy about that before laughing some, "Xannyia was in shock. Her ENTIRE house is practically all blue. She keeps rambling about how some lipstick mark on the mirror is to blame." Near the end of that, she was shaking her head some, "I'm happy she had decided to give in and let me have red things now." She gave her red belt like thing a pat. "Sorry to hear you're bored." She stated, "That's never fun. Perhaps you should try mediating? That would give you something to do and can be quite relaxing." She said with a nod. She wasn't entirely sure if that would be considered 'fun' by the other Simu, but it was fun for her, so she figured it wouldn't hurt to suggest it.

Yeste' smirked.
"I already do some meditating. It helps me with..." Yeste' cut off, not exactly wanting to call them powers.
"Well, let me show you..." Yeste' smiled at Sarria and looked around for something. She held out her hand towards a patch of darkness under a leafy bush and concentrated. It was even harder to call the shadows to her without actually touching them and she wasn't able to do it from a very far distance, and she couldn't do it many times in a row without rest. At least not now...
Slowly the shadows began to swirl and dance as they crept towards Yeste', after a few moments of mental 'sweet talking' from Yeste' the shadows finally massed around Yeste's hand in a swirling ball.
"See? This takes alot of practice and control, and to help with that I have to do a bit of meditating..."

As the shadows swirled around Yeste's hand Sarria stared at it with a blank look on her face. After her jaw dropped, she snapped out of the 'staring thing' and shut it. With a few blinks she moved her eyes to the other's face, "...What...was that?" She asked a bit quietly, still getting over what she had just seen, "Did you just do what I think you did?" Sarrria itched her shoulder a moment and blinked several more times while doing so, "I can see why that would take mediation." She commented with a nod or two...or four. "How long have you been able to do that?" She asked curiously, finding what Yeste' had just done to be cool.

Yeste' smiled, ammused and pleased with her reaction.
"That was me 'manipulating' the shadows to my will. I can also take shadows, which are an intangible thing, and make them tangible... its very nifty and has all sorts of uses."
Yeste' paused for a moment, trying to think back... waaay back to when she was first able to do this.
"Well... I think the first time I did this was the night that I had that dream... about a month or two ago... I didn't work with it much at first because it frightened me to be honest."
Yeste' dissmissed the shadows with a wave of her hand, which sent them evaporating into the air much as smoke does when one waves a hand through it.
