Welcome to Gaia! ::

Kora's response to Feather's greeting was a tad bit too late as the young girl's curiosity was sparked by the green-clothed woman that had just been brought in. "So pretty!" the girl exclaimed as she ran circles around the bird-like female. At least, she seemed female. Consequently, she also ended up running circles around Kora, who was so close to Amana, Feather managed to pick that much up, that it would have been quite rude to run in between her and the bird-woman.

Finally, after running around the woman at least ten times--Sora was understandably very dizzy as a result--Tsubasa skidded to a stop in front of the beautiful woman and bent down slightly so that she could be eye-level with her. "Your name is Amana, right?" the girl asked, her voice brimming with energetic curiosity and wonder, "What are you?". As rude as the question might have sounded in a different voice, the way Feather said it with round, curious eyes and a childishly enthusiastic voice sounded so genuine that it was anything but rude.

Sora, meanwhile, hopped off of his summoner's shoulder just in case she decided to go running around in circles again. Instead, he scampered over to the next-familiar shoulder in the area, Arete's, and promptly began chewing his bandanna as he usually did.

As Sora chewed on Arete's headwear, his eyes moved casually from one face to the next, Reading them all for their rank, class, and bloodline. As he moved on to the last one, the red-haired woman, the summon frowned momentarily before returning to his content expression. The change was so fast that only someone who had been paying attention to him would have noticed. She couldn't pinpoint exactly what about the red-haired woman seemed different, but it was the same type of different as Pix's, meaning that it was probably something like Greed, a sin. Which one, though, was beyond Sora's comprehension.

Tsubasa, meanwhile, had been so into the unique and new Amana that she completely didn't hear Arete. Well, she heard something. She just didn't know that it was addressed to her.

Name: Read
Energy cost: D
Description: When Sora is concentrating on a specific target in any form, he is able to Read his target and gain basic information about the target's abilities. At the most, he can understand the rank, class, and bloodline of the target. Read reads the energy signatures of the target to get information, it doesn't read the mind.

Sora: [200/275]

At Amana's reaction, Feather grew slightly depressed. What had she done wrong?

{Feather.... Feather!} Sora shouted mentally at his summoner.
At the mental shout, the girl's head started up slightly.
Sora continued, {The queen just asked what you were doing here.}

Tsubasa, hoping her lack of concentration hadn't been too obvious, looked up sheepishly at the queen as she straightened up. "Erm, sorry, yeah," the girl started hesitantly with a quick bow, "Oh yes, the new King of Yuran, Arthrun Shimizu, would like to meet you in about a week's time." There was a pause as Tsubasa tried to remember what else Arthrun had told her. Then, with Sora repeating the information mentally, the girl continued, "He wishes to make sure that you understand that he feels no ill will towards either you or Kranila and that if you are still hesitant even with such assurances that it is alright to bring one other person with you to the meeting to ensure that no tricks are involved." Honestly, the girl didn't understand half of the words she said, but that was what Sora told her the king had talked about so that was what she said. Hopefully, no one would notice?

Once more, as if for good luck, the girl bowed at the end of her speech and then stood by politely to wait for the queen's response.

(OOC: Wait.... What?... No, now you made Feather sad gonk !)

Tsubasa clearly heard what Arete was groaning about from behind her and turned curiously to see what was bothering her friend. Not having really been taught to show courtesy and respect to the leaders of the nations, the action was natural to the girl even if it was rude. "What's wrong?" Tsubasa asked as she hopped towards and then knelt down besides Arete. Her head was tilted slightly to the side and a slight pout could definitely be seen on her face. The sight of her friend being sad saddened Feather, "It's alright. I still care about a poor bard like you."

Sora couldn't help but smile slightly as he watched what was happening. However, he let out no noise and, being on Arete's head, the bard wouldn't have noticed. It was apparent that Tsubasa was completely obvious that she had been the source of Arete's groan.
