"So he is gone." she said softly, "Is there any way that you can be helped? Are you alright with how you are?" Akira smiled gently at Ewan. "It would be unfortunate if you were unhappy."
"Yes, the moon is very lovely, but I don't know if I could call it more beautiful than it is here. There is so much color here!" Akira said gesturing to the trees, the flowers, the water. "On the moon every thing looks as if it is frosted." The princess explained as best as she could.

"My dear," Ewan replied with a grin, "after three centuries, I can honestly say I'm happy with the way I am." In response to Akira's description of her home, he added, "Ah, but is there not beauty in frost as well? It's all in the eye of the beholder." As the angel continued walking, he noticed a pair of humanoid shapes slowly coming into view.
"So, what would you like to know about this world first?"

"I am very glad to hear that!" Akira giggled, "I am happy you are happy with who you are." She nodded in agreement, "Yes, there is beauty in everything. It is all unique, but the colors of the forest are overwhelming." She said looking around again, her eyes gleaming with life. "So many colors, and shades." It was baffling.
"What can you tell me?" Akira asked looking back into his eyes expectantly. "I know nothing about your world! Please tell me anything!"

Alex blushed brightly. He was not really the social type normally and he was just kissed on his cheek. In addition the cute girl he just found snuggled her head into his lap making him blush even more.
"Uhh Uhmmm..."Alex said unintelligibly as he tried to relax.

Calisto pleasantly slept needing just a bit more energy to recover as she laid there. Her body seemed to recover nicely. She had the energy to move slightly just enough to avoid doing anything that would discomfort Alex any further. Her hands would lay near her lips as she slept. It made her seem almost child-like, though at times she might have acted like that in the past being she was still very young.

Alex stroked the sleeping Calisto's haiir as he looked across the lake. The people on the other side of the lake seemed to be walking along the edge of the lake and getting closer. He did not know if they were really as little a threat as Calisto thinks they are but he would be ready just in case.

Calisto began to awaken as she smiled up at Alex. “I’m sorry that I used you for a pillow. I was just so tired. But, you were a comfy pillow though, and warm.” Calisto gave a tiny yawn as she laid like she was enjoying the feel of her hair being stroked by Alex. It was nice. The spirit of the wind even was chit-chatting about it too. She might have met her match in someone that hears the elements.

Alex smiled as he looked down at her.
"It's okay Miss Calisto. I am glad you have had a chance to relax. Besides it is not like it was a painful experience or anything. Alex felt nervous and happy and it didn't help that the spirits were chattering about.

“The wind spirit sure has been chatty. I wonder what it wants to talk about.” She’d touch the wind spirit that was closest to her as she tried to listen in and only giggled. “We’re not a couple silly spirit. That would take time to happen.” She’d thunk the spirit on the nose if it had one to show it was being silly as she looked at Alex smiling. She found the root of its chatty nature.

Alex laughed nervously as Calisto listened to the wind spirit and he scratched his chin absently.
"You are a very interesting person Miss Calisto. It wouldn't be the worse to happen eventually." Alex said through his embarrassment.

“Thank you, I suppose. I’ve always been able to see the spirits and hear them for some time now. They are tangible to me though, so I am able to touch them. Are you able to see or hear them too?” Her words came gently as she looked at him. She noted his embarrassment and only giggled. She could see herself with him though, which made her blush not out of embarrassment but out of liking him.

"Let's see," Ewan said, stroking his chin thoughtfully. "The wildlife down here is astoundingly diverse. The same creature in different parts of the world may not look at all alike. Plant life is the same way. We have big cities, small villages, and everything in between. In just the last 200 years, technology has improved by leaps and bounds!" He smiled at Akira again. "How's that for your first bit of info on this world?"

Akira blinked. "It leaves a lot of room open for questions." She giggled, her eyes wide with wonder and fascination. "So many questions, how it is possible that there are so many different things? On the moon we have a handful of different beings, but they were not always there, some of them came from other places, so the moon is not their native home. Are all the creatures here native?"

Ewan nodded. "Yes," he said, "they're all native. The reason there are so many different beings is that the Earth is host to climates and environments of all kinds. Water and nutrients are plentiful, so the world is teeming with life. The diversify we have today is the result of millennia of adaptation and evolution. I don't really understand it that much myself." As the duo walked around the lake, Ewan could now see that one of the other two was male, and the second was female.

Akira nodded in understanding. "Alright seems simple enough." She laughed. Akira noticed the people before them. "Oh who are they? Are they like you? Do you know them?" She asked excitedly. There were more people she now had a chance to meet.
