Welcome to Gaia! ::

[Vetra 1]

When Vetra thought of what going to Zinris would mean babysitting wasn't part of it. She didn't mind it; after all, Enya's family had been nice enough to her since she'd shown up looking for her. Vetra had just been hoping for more alone time to explore the island and get in touch with their roots. She imagined more beach time to themselves like a vacation of sorts away from prying eyes...

...Of course the fates had other ideas. As they neared the beach the more muscular Elidae looked across the sand and frowned. They weren't alone. "...Do either of you know who that is? Should we be worried?" She assumed Kyllha would be fine, she was pure Elaria after all, but the Elidae were often given weird looks.

She'd been a little upset that her sister couldn't join them but the feeling passed when she remembered she'd still get to spend time with her cousin at the beach. The added presence of Vetra didn't seem to bother her so much either. As she heard Enya ask if she was excited she leaned her head back in a dramatic fashion to look up at the Elidae and grinned. "Yeah!" Of course she was then distracted by the question the other one posed.

Who was who? The little Elaria lifted her head to look out at the other person and noticed that they were like her but not. She offered up a hum before shrugging her shoulders. If the girl knew who it was she couldn't remember a name. Then again Kyllha was horrible at remembering names of people. "Dunno. Looks like they came out here to train though... Weird. We have a training grounds." She knew Enya and Vetra had to have seen it.

When the other said she'd move on Kyllha scrunched up her nose. "Why? There's plenty of room." The beach was big enough. So long as no one tried to bully her cousin then Kyllha was fine. She might be a ball of energy but she also had a mean kick and shins were right on her level.

[Vetra 2]

Crossing her arms across her chest, the taller Elidae was far less welcoming than the other two of her group. Generally when someone wanted to be alone they also didn't want to be disturbed and it was for one of two reasons; they either didn't handle groups well or they were aggressive. For a moment she just stared at the other Aishan, trying to judge which sort she was, and when the offer to share the beach softened her features Vetra nodded.

No hostilities were for the best.

Reaching out for Enya's basket, Vetra sat it down atop the sand and dug around until she found a blanket amid the mess to spread out.

When her cousin put a hand on her shoulder she paused to look up at her. She knew that move. Her mother's did it sometimes when they wanted her to mind. Either because there was a threat or because they were being cautious. Kyllha blinked at Enya for a second before looking toward Ilsa. She saw no threat but knew she wasn't an expert.

When the offer to join them was giving she gave a friendly smile. Though she did glance toward Vetra since she was the one that moved first. At seeing the other Elidae grab the blanket she gave a soft bounce on the heels of her feet.

"Hm?" Her attention went to Ilsa when she asked about Pruu. "That's my Mata. You know her?" A flash of excitement hit her at the idea of meeting one of her mother's friends.

[Enya 3]

With Vetra 'sizing up' their threat Enya looked down to Kyllha and smiled. She was such a good girl, they both were, and as soon as it was deemed safe she ruffled the girls dreads before kissing her forehead.

"Pruu's my Aunt, and we're here visiting too." She motioned toward Vetra who just held up her hand in a very 'ditto' motion. "My name's Enya and that's Vetra over there. If you want to help out you can keep an eye on this little fighter-" She tossed a grin at Kyllha, "-and make sure she doesn't get too far into the water."

So her Mata had helped this person to find places to train. That was weird since there was a training grounds. Kyllha tilted her head a little. "I'm Kyllha, not to be confused with my twin Kyrrha." She offered up a big grin. Of course she knew her and her sister looked very different. For one, Kyrrha had rare markings!

She glanced up at Enya when she mentioned keeping an eye on her while in the water. "Can I go play in the water now? Do you need help setting up?" While she was eager to get to the water she also knew that if she was needed to do something she had to wait.

Then she heard Vetra's question. She leaned forward so she could give the other Elidae her attention. "That's not nice." She'd been told that asking why someone looked they way they did was rude. Mostly because people tended to point out her sister's rare markings. "She didn't ask about you." While she didn't know many Elidae - Enya was basically it - she figured out that Vetra's markings were a little different just like Kyrrha's.

[Ilsa 4]

There it was. Taking a deep breath, Ilsa prepared herself mentally to defend her bloodline, just as she had dozens of times before, only for a child to do it for her. Her eyes widened with surprise and the hybrid looked over to her, then up at Enya who just smiled it away. It brought a bit of Ilsa's own smile back.

"It's fine; honestly. One my mother's is an Elarian and the other is an Alkidike. That's it." She shrugged as if it were common place because to her it was. Looking back to Vetra, Ilsa held out a hand to help the Elidae off the sand should she want to take it.

"....I like your markings?" She didn't know exactly how to handle the other Aishan, but Ilsa was ready to try.
