Welcome to Gaia! ::

Lan laughed. "Oh yes, thats a great purpose." He mused easily, taking a sip of his hot chololate and finishing his whipcream before placing the cup down. He pondered over her next statement for a bit. The odd creatures roaming the forests? Now that he thought about it, he remembered children and teenagers chatting about it at the cafe. Something about beasts and being scared to go into the forest. Even Willow was too scared to travel into the forest at night now that the rumors had started. He hadnt really thought much about it up until now. He crossed his arms and closed his eyes, humming in thought. "Maybe you're right." He said, watching the clouds with his light lavender eyes. His interest was now growing for these odd children, and he wondered what would happen in the long run. What trouble would come upon them? If any? Lan hummed in thought. "Maybe you're right. But how would they be able to balance it? Do they have some sort of a ability or something?" Lan pondered this, absently wondering how Krinn was doing with Sable.

Krinn was indeed doing well, with Sona on his shoulder and Sable at his side. The young dust child was watching absently as the stream went on when a rather odd looking man passed by. He wouldnt have noticed it really, but the man just had an odd look to him that made Krinn watch him suspiciously until he was out of sight before turning to Sable again. "Yeah, it really does." He laughed, enjoying himself more then usual as they walked along, turning throughout the market and its odd corridors as they walked along. Some sun glinted off of glass that was hanging from above them, and in the distance, chimes sounded amongst the wind. Looking back at Sable, Krinn curiously blinked and wondered where this could lead them. "Do you think Lan and Mia will get mad if we go farther then this?" he asked absently, looking at the corner they were about to turn at.

"Hey, you're okay there ? That was a nasty fall there." He pondered for a moment. Silver definitively had an exotic look to him, pretty much everywhere he went, due to the mix of dark skin, white hairs, and gray eyes. Out of his siblings, he was the oddest - the others, at least, had dark hairs that melded with their skin more.

He'd entered without noticing what the place truly was, and going out without buying anything would probably be... quite rude.

"If you're alright, then... would it be possible to see the menu ? I've never been here before." He admitted with a embarrassed smile.

It was a long walk - but an interesting one. Being a discoverer, Tori always had her senses open to the world around her, observing every new movement made by the nature itself. "You know, nature is a peculiar thing, Millie," Tori explained as she raised her had to move the branches aside, " So many people, so many events always destroy the nature, but everything just grows back to its original place... It's quite miraculous... I am really facinated by the powers life itself has. As long as there is a single life in this world, I believe that everything will be fine." As soon as she finished her sentence, the branch swung back as her, swatting the side of her head. "OUCH!" she cried out, then quickly covered her mouth. A sudden loud noise in the forest these days weren't a smart idea - you don't know what kind of "life" you might attract. Just a pace behind her, Millie giggled.

"You know, Tori," she started to say as she did a little hop over one of the rocks, "I believe that too... I've always wondered about how life is so interesting, yet people destroy it. But," she paused,"people like you keep the world going" Millie was happy with the way things were now. Herself and Tori, just nothing else to disturb the silence. Although she didn't really enjoy the trips into the forest, but she liked Tori. Even in the times of fear, Tori has always been there for her, to protect her and keep her company. "So..." Millie said twisting her body and rolling her eyes, "What are you going to buy me for lunch? I think i'm starting to get hungry..."

Tori turned around to face Millie. It's been a while since Millie said she was hungry. "Well," Tori replied skipping across the trickle of water, " maybe we should have pancakes, some cereal, possibly some fruits, and for dessert, Ice Cream..." Both of them gulped. By just thinking thinking about the prize of the long adventure in the forest made them both hungry.

"I think i can almost see the pond, Tori!" Millie said. "That's great Millie...Even though you only have one eye... you do see better than me.." Tori said with a chuckle, then took out her music box from her pack. After rewinding the box, she gently tiled the cap. "Why don't we enjoy the next little bit of the walk?" Tori said. Her words were accompanied with a sweet tune, almost like a lullaby, that took the exhaustion away from their minds.

"Yeah..." Lan laughed a bit. "It seems they both have unique powers. Krinn seems to attract the rain at times. Light showers always happen when he wakes up or goes to sleep as I've noticed." He paused, remembering the time where he had been eating breakfast and noticed that Krinn had walked out and the rain had started up lightly. It had happened again the next day and Lan had deemed it odd and out of the ordinary. He paused, thinking for a moment. "Yes, you're right. It would be hard for someone to be in combat with anyone like them I'm sure. And the bottles must need an owner that wouldnt throw it away, so maybe its the bottles own will that brings the person to it." Lan hummed in thought, rocking his chair back and forth and almost falling out of it at one point as he thought about what could possibly happen if Krinn got more powers. He had always liked the water Lan supposed. But then again, thats where Lan had found him anyways. "That makes perfect sense." he said thoughtfully, and glanced at the sky, its beautiful blue dotted with small white specks for clouds.

Krinn frowned and caught up. "I didnt say I wanted it to end. I was just wondering." He glanced around them, eyeing everything and anything. Lan had promised to take him out on the town one day, but exploring with Sable was just as fun. "Yeah, you're right." he mumbled, then perked up as a melody sang on the air. Krinn was instantly drawn to it and glanced over at Sable. "Can you hear that?" he asked curiously, glancing back in the direction before speeding up and turning a corner. Then he realized they were on the outskirts. Green vines and buds were all around, and the trees were beginning to show. But what made him curious were the two people around there. One of them had something about her that made him feel like he knew her somehow. Or felt a sense. It was so faint though that he didnt pay any heed to it. Krinn glanced up at the older girl with a small curious glance. "Are you the one making the music?" He asked curiously, looking at the girl and her companion then back at Sable who he hoped was coming with him.

By the time Silver had gotten seated and started reading the menu, he was in his own little world, and he hadn't even noticed Aren as he slipped by to sit in front of him. He was quite hungry, he'd noticed, he'd just been entranced with finding out about the bo-

Wait.

One eyebrow perked up and his eyes left the menu to look at Aren. The same man from the harbor... still all bundled up. But, right now, what trully interested him was the sentence he had just said. Maybe word had gotten around.

"Really ? Ill'd be willing to learn more about it, yes." He did not reach to take it out. Not yet.

The man opposite of Aren was evidently suspicious of him, he could not blame him since he was wrapped up in cloth and scarves and his face wasn't shown, aside from the fact that the bottles were really something precious.

"Those bottles..." he was about to explain to the man on what the bottles were meant for but was interrupted by the perky woman who seemed to be working in the shop.

He looked at her quizzically, "Nothing really, thank you madame." he said as he bowed his head slightly, still confused on why she would ask him of what he wanted to drink. He did not even know who she was. Facing the dark-skinned man again, he awaited his response to the girl.

Damnit, just when he was about to get an explanation !

"Hrm... just water, please." Silver managed after a moment. Shouldn't the other at least take his scarf off ? It was pretty hot in here...

Well, there where always some weird ones in Amies. His reaction to the waitress really did puzzle Silver a bit. Sounded almost like him when he got out of the manor for the first time...

"Water it is," Toni tucked her pad into her apron and went behind the counter in order to get the gentleman some water. She grabbed a pitcher, filled it with water and ice cubes. Just in case, she grabbed two glasses as well.

She brought it back over to the table and placed it between them. "Just let me know if you need anything," She told them before walking back to counter to see what needed to be done.
