[ Zayana 1 ]
The trip across the sea was a bit more bumpy than the last one, but they made it safely to the shores of Matori. It had been ages since the Elaria had visited the mainland, back then it was when she was young and accompanying the curious mystic. The thought made Zayana quiet and pensive, remembering a time long past where she was a different Aishan.
For now, she was here with her daughter, intent on visiting the trees neither had seen and hopefully making some nice memories along the way. As they walked along the beachy shores, she could tell her daughter was excited to see a land so similar to the beaches of Kahikina.

[ Nayyara 1 ] Nayyara was so grateful to see sparkling waters and crisp beaches. Yael was nice, but it was so dreary and it felt a little bit like a prison. After hearing the history of the island, both on the Earthling and Aishan side, she felt bad that her assessment hit so close to home. Either way, being on the new continent and seeing so many beautiful visions was something that caused the young Blade to bounce with excitement. " So tell me again where we need to go to see Aisha? Will we be able to see the tree from afar like Elzira?"

Zuella 1 Zuella was out foraging for all the delight of the ocean that could be found during low tide. She tried to fill a bucket everyday and what she did not eat or preserve was taken to market to supplement the allowance that her Mother always sent her. As she walked to the shore with a clam or two, (she had lost the fight with the octopus and the rocks,) she noticed some tall beautiful ladies coming around a curve in the beach. Both of them looked familiar and she smiled thinking that two sisters were out for a walk. As they got closer though, she got very excited and waved in delight at the approaching ladies.

"We'll have to travel a bit still..." Zayana replied to her daughter, thinking it over, "Through the Matori waters, across the desert of Oba, and then the jungles of Jauhar. By then, we'll just cross the water to make it to the islands..."
It was a simple trip, or so she's been told, so she figured it wouldn't be too much for the two of them. Maybe it would have been faster if she had her mount, but she didn't want to stress the creature out. For now, she'd just travel by foot.
It was at that moment she caught sight of a small Aishan waving there way, possibly a growing teenager based on her build.
Hopefully, she was more friend than foe.

[ Nayyara 2 ] She knew enough from speaking to others what a desert was, and was excited to get there and experience the new type of land. A giant beach as far as the eye could see, it sounded absolutely fascinating to the blade. " Do you think it'll take long?" She asked, before she noticed her mother's gaze and turned to catch sight of the Aishan. Gasping out at the girl ahead of them, Nayyara raised a brow in interest before slowly waving back. " Hello, cousin!"

Zuella 2
Zuella walked to meet them. The thought never occured to her that these fascinating visitors might not be all that friendly. She hadn't met that many mean people so her first instinct was to trust. Especially since they were from tree tribes, distantly related and all that. This was her first time being close to anyone not from Aishia's buds.
"My name is Zuella, welcome to Matori." She nodded at them respectfully as she would have to sisters from her own tribe.
"Forgive me if I seem rude, I have not met any who look like you and I am unfamiliar with your customs."
She offered a hand for a shake of truce, trustingly.

[ Zayana 3 ]
The older Elaria gently gripped her bow as the other approached, resisting her sigh at the trusting nature of her daughter. Sure, she loved how trusting Nayyara was, but the Elaria ways still caused hesitancy in the elder when approached by a foreign sister.
As Zuella approached and eventually greeted them, Zayana loosened her grip and relaxed her stance, appreciating the respect and calm of the other.
"Greetings. I'm Zayana, and this is my daughter Nayyara." She replied with a nod, glancing at the hand but holding off for now.

[ Nayyara 3 ] Nayyara noticed right away how closed off her mother was. It was similar to how she acted as they approached Zinris. Maybe it was something to do with being around another Aishan? They were stronger and more dangerous than the local Kahikinans, after all. But still, her mother wasn't normally this reserved. Shrugging, she moved closer and took Zuella's hand, " Nice to meetcha!" She said brightly with a smile. " You must be from Chibale if you haven't seen either of us, right?"

Zuella 3
Zuella smiled brightly at them both. "Yes I am from Chibale," she gripped the young Ashian's hand in a firm but gentle grip. Truly delighted to get to talk to new Aishans. She knew there were some old school sisters out there, but Zuella was a firm believer in the until harm is done onto me philosophy. Besides they didn't look like they were invading, it looked like they were adventuring for more knowledge which was the best reason to adventure in her opinion. She was grateful to have done a bit of travelling.
"What brings you here? Any special travel plans?" She knew most of the area they were in and could point out restaraunts or markets or whatever they wanted really.

"We're just passing through on our way toward Jauhar." Zayana replied slowly. They still had a ways to travel, and both girls weren't too keen to see the sights more than a glance. They didn't complete this trip for pleasure, so while they did explore and get to know each region, the plan was always to keep moving toward Chibale.

[ Nayyara 4 ] Okay, so her mother seemed more keen to communicate with anyone but this Alkidike in front of them, so Nayyara took the lead (while still keeping a bit of restraint just in case her mother had a motive for her behavior). Shrugging, she moved closer and took Zuella's hand, " Nice to meetcha!" She said brightly with a smile. " Yeah, we're passing through and heading to Chibale to see the Great Mother. We just came from Zinris. We're trying to see all of the trees in our own little pilgrimage. "

Zuella 4
She liked the younger one immediately after the woman took her hand. She was more open and friendly more like herself. Whereas her elder/mother? was more closed off from her. She understood that, but she still felt a little hurt. She hadn't done anything, she was in fact born after all of the hooplah between the tribes happened.
"All the trees?! What are the ones you have been to like? I want to see them as well, but so far only Great Mother Aisha in on my already seen list."
"If you want company on your walk, I'm due to return for a visit as well." She liked to go back to pray at the solstices and equinoxes, to be with her mother's troupe for a while and to refresh herself spiritually.

[ Zayana 5 ]
"We just came from Elzira and are on our way to Aisha." Zayana explained calmly, starting to keep an eye out in the surroundings to make sure no one else was approaching. Of the few that lingered, some showed curiosity, but none dared to approach three warrior women. Finally, Zayana relaxed and just continued to observe the young girl before them.
"Hmmm..." She replied slowly at the offer from the girl to join them, glancing at her daughter.

[ Nayyara 5 ] "That's right! We're going to see each of them. Momma is from Zinris, but I've never been outside of Kiros so she's taking me around. But Chibale and Chiume are new...plus the whole of Tendaji...so it's a bit of an adventure." She shrugged and whipped her hair over her shoulder a moment, thinking slowly at the offer to join them. She glanced toward her mom, wondering what she thought, before nodding and smiling. "Well, we'd appreciate you at least showing us the best way through Jauhar. I hear there are a lot of nasty creatures in the trees..."

Zuella 5
Zuella smiled brightly, "Oh for sure there are, Jauhar can be rough but it is almost one of the most beautiful and rugged places. It really does take your breath away, and when the radaku howl and call at night it makes your hair stand on end, but it also helped to wake up the primal spirit we all share. I've spent a little time in a few of the tendaji places but not all by any means, when I was younger I traveled more with my mother's band of warriors and they ranged from home with Aisha to Matori and everything in between."
"I'd be delighted to be your guide." The place names the younger of the two spoke of sounded wonderfully exotic to her. She loved going to new places.
