Welcome to Gaia! ::

The whole family nodded at what she said, and Shelley seemed to be more egar than the rest of them to go to town. That would mean she could leave too, wither it was with Sophia or not.

As the Centaur left the house Shelley darted from her chair after her.
"Wait for me!"
"Shelley! Your plate!"
Her mother called, pointing to the dirty plate Shelley had left on the table. Rushing back inside she grabbed up the plate and put it in the kitchen, running some water over it before dashing back out. Her mom might be mad that she didnt actually wash it, but at the moment Shelley didnt care.

Running to catch up with Sophia the girl panted to keep her breath up for the run. Slowing to a walk once she got close the girl looked up to the centaur and smiled.
"I am going traveleing too."
She said, seemingly very proud of the fact her parents would allow it. Her status almost demanded it of her though.

Hopping onto her back she watched as the items moved past them on their way into town. Once they were in the town Shelley jumped off her back and walked over to the shop with Sophia, looking at the items she bought and in her own way keeping track of things as she saw fit. For someone so young she seemed to understand more than she should.

Making her way out of town with Sophia, Shelley looked up and smiled in a childish manner.
"Off on our own adventure! Where do you want to go first."
She asked, though the question was quickly thrown out when Sophia started to laugh. Tilting her head then smiling she put her hands on her hips in a motherly fashion.
"Whats so funny?"

Shelley giggled quietly as the Centaur told the tale of her childhood. It was amazing that the races, while very different, always seemed to share the same kinds of childhood fears. At least for a little while anyway.

"When I was little, I used to be afraid of the thunder durning storms."
She admitted, speaking as if she was far older than she actually was. With her little bare feet padding along on the road she put her hnads behind her back and smiled.
"But then I learned that there are much scarier things out there than thunder."
She said, smiling like a child and skipping slightly down the road. You would have never guessed she was talking about the night of her attack.

Looking up to Sophia she shrugged her shoulders and sighed.
"Dont know. Where do you think we should go?"
She said, looking down to road to see if there was a road sign or something to tell them where they were headed.

Now Rui had been traveling for a few days, having been home and back again she was looking for some new creatures to tame and call a fortune, back in her old stomping grounds of Blize. Ahh, the fresh sent of trees in the air and varried creatures tracks made her feal right at home again.

As she made her way through the forest, tracking a wild kirin suddenly the whole forest was drenched in silence of an uncanny measure. As if something unatural had come about in an almost sudden event. The stillness extended to a village that she knew of nearby, and she decided that the kirin could wait and if she was to get anything done the silence that had a new grip on this forest would have to well... be silenced! So to the village she went. Appon arival she notaced the sorce of the silence instantly, a ghost trapped in limbo had appeared and was looking for some sort of revenge that apparently the village leader could help with, judgeing by how blue the poor gaurd's face was from the chokeing he had recived.

So she diplomaticly stepped over, in an atempt to solve the problem she spoke aloud with a commanding voice that most creatures paied attention to without thaught. She figured that this guy was all bron and no brain so he might just listen.

" Whatever you came here for you are in the wrong place... A god has declaired this place sacred and has voued that any who cause another harm on these grounds is to be punished."

She told him, and although she despised any religion for takeing her fauther away from her, it didn't stop her from evoking those old punishments for the torment of others.

Rui stood her ground, knowing that because he was not a being of this world it was only a matter of time, with his interfearing of the living world, before the god of death came to claim him. She put her hands on her hips defiantly and gave him the 'so what' look.

"Yes it does... your scareing off all the creatures for miles! It's almost impossible to catch anything with you here."

She said, sounding every bit difiant and pissed with that same commanding voice that every creature took notace of and obayed. Hopefuly he was that same kind of animalistic stupid that he would listen to her.

"Now put the nice chief down and get the hell out of this forest."

Rui stood indefinately in her spot, stouborn as a newbourn Skud with her hands on her hips. Defiant to whatever the Ghost had to say. She wasn't going to fear something that she could walk right through, since he couldn't make every part of himself solid all the time... Or so she hoped.

"Well they are of mine. I don't care about your 'purpose' I just want you to get the hell out of here so I can be on my own marry way living the good life!"

She said, still defiantly standing in place. When the death threat came she still didn't budge, dispite the fact mear touch seemed to make everything around him die. She had seen Nightmares, a little ghost with a bad aditude was nothing.

"Depart and I will leave as well."
