| Freya entered the gates that separated the city from the rest of the world, she had a smooth entry given her identity. Pulling her long silver hair behind her ears, she is careful to make sure that she is not been followed. The elders back home were concerned about her safety. But what they failed to notice it that she had been the leader for five years already, she is confident that she is capable of taking care of herself. The rain continued to fall, and she opened her umbrella that shelters her from the outside element. She slowly made her way to one of the shops across the streets. |

 Keito entered the gates. He hadn't prepared for rain and thus his clothes got all wet. It wasn't rare for Keito to see rain, but he just didn't prepare for it at this time of year. "Guess i should seek shelter soon.", Keito thought and looked around him. He didn't see much of shelter. "I guess i should get going to an alley, where nobody can see me.". Keito walked to a nearby alley and used his shadow, that had merged with the shadow of the alley to make an roof above his head. "What now..?" |
| Freya walked down into one of the alleys, counting mentally to the number of steps she had taken. Her destination today was a secretive place and she had no intention of allowing others to find out. Imagine her surprise when she notice someone hiding, and what really caught her off guard was that that stranger was using his shadow as a shade or something. Frowning a little, she approaches him and asked. "Sorry but who are you? You don't appear to be native." |
鏡花水月 |
 Keito heard the voice of a female. He turned at the direction the voice came from. It was a silver haired woman whom he had never seen before. "My name is Keito Kirikawa. And i'm not native indeed. Can i help you with something?". |
| "I could totally see that." She covered her mouth and giggled a little. "This is the first time I've seen someone in the Blues City walking without an umbrella. There is practically no sunshine around here." Coughing a little, she straighten her back and introduced herself. "I'm Freya Utau, pleased to meet you. Say do you have a place you want to get to?" |
鏡花水月 |
"I don't really have a specific place to go to.". The shadow above Keito's head returned to its position on the ground and the walls. "Is there someplace with shelter?" |
| Freya observes as the shadow retreats.Shadows huh? Interesting. When asked for some suggestions, she merely smiled and replied, "I am going to a bookstore, I am sure the owner wouldn't mind somebody seeking shelter there." |

| "Stepping out of a alley and puts his hand out and rain drips on the hand" hm.. "Said with a calm yet gentle tone" so this is rain? " looking up as his face is covered by a hood with mysterious symbols and designs" Gentle mother.. watch over me.. "as he steps out and starts walking about" its strange how this feels.. "Looks around the corners" |
 |
"Well then, would you mind to guide me there?". Keito walked over to the lady. "As i said, i'm not native. I haven't been in this place before either." |
| "As he was walking Lupushion notice's 2 people talking but ignores them completely and continues to walk in a straight direction" This place seems too quiet.. "As he sighs at the sight of Blues City" Perhaps I can some refuge in a small library..."Thinking to himself"  its probably a matter of time.. please lady auriga.. guide my way.."as he mumbles and search for the library" |

| Naphthalie Ytteria Location : Blues City Streets Holding the black umbrella firmly with her hands, she walks down the street. On her other hand was a plastic bag filled with groceries and necessities for the bar. Naph used to only buy stuff for the bar at the Town of Falform but after finding out that merchandise from the city that welcomes people of different constellations are far better that their own produce, she had been a frequent customer. "I hope I don't come in contact with that idiot." Naph sighed as her grip on the umbrella tightened. When she looked at what's in front of her, she saw a hooded figure drenched in the rain who seeemed to be looking for something. When she was able to catch up to him, she managed to cover them both with her not-so-large, black umbrella. "You'll get sick like that, sir." She said in a modulated voice. |
Must stop procrastination...later... |
| Freya nodded in acknowledgement as she scans the area for any familiar faces. Satisfied that the guards are not here yet, she rubbed her hands together. The rain is getting heavier and she is losing warmth, not a good sign in this city. "Follow me." She drops her line before moving towards the nearby Ayafuya Bookstore. |

| Naphthalie Ytteria Location : Blues City Streets Pissed Off Gauge : 12% "Yes. Quite a serious sickness, actually" Naph replied at the shocked gentleman. She meant to say 'Yes, Idiocy is quite a popular epidemic lately' but decided to try and hold her temper. This temper was actually reserved to be let loosed on a certain guy after all. "So, are you going at that direction?" Naph pointed to the direction in front of her. It was the guy's direction he was facing before he turned around to look at her. |
| Must stop procrastination...later... |
| "Yes i am going to place where i can find shelter and maybe perhaps-" Lupushion suddenly drops to his knee as if attacked by an unknown assailant. |
|
| Naphthalie Ytteria Location : Blues City Street The guy who Naph was with suddenly drops to to the ground. She, however, remained standing, still holding the the umbrella up above the two of them. "You okay?" She asked, not even holding out her hand. Pissed Off Gauge : 18% One thing Naph learned as a bartender for many years it to never get too involved with customers. Although, with the current situation, one could say that the saying could also mean to not get too involved with strangers. |
| Must stop procrastination...later... |
| "Yes, Forgive me young lady" as he spoke with pain in his words "By any chance you know of a shaman or a healer?" as he looks up at her with pain in his eyes |
|
Keito followed the young lady, Freya, to the bookstore. It's not like he had any place to go and seek shelter right now anyways. "Thank you." |
| Naphthalie Ytteria Location : Blues City Streets "Well, in fact, I do." Naph replied to the guy's question. The question was not if she knows any, its that if she was allowed to disclose such information. "I just know them. It doesn't necessarily mean that I know where they live." Naph addedto her last statement. She wasn't being uncaring, she was just being the stranger she was. Naph isn't living such a cliched life like wanting to help random people she meets on the street. Especially since she's at Blue's City, where everybody from any constellation can walk. She has to bear some pride for her title, after all. |
| Must stop procrastination...later... |
| "I see" as he lets out a sigh "Hm, its too bad you do know know where such a person lives" as he stands up on his feet a little. "But it is still strange i have not seen any of my fellow kin in such a place like this" as he looks around the streets "Tell me do you know of the Auriga?" a questioned that popped in the conversation. |
|
| Naphthalie Ytteria Location : Blues City Streets "But it is still strange i have not seen any of my fellow kin in such a place like this... ...Tell me do you know of the Auriga?" Naph stared at the guy. She wasn't sure how to answer that. There are some things which can and can't be said, after all. If she answered wrong, it might be possible that a fight would take place. Naph wouldn't want any of that. She isn't a pacifist nor a battle-crazed woman but she'd rather much prefer it if everyone was just normal. Flicking some of her bangs, she tried to humor the question. "Auriga. Does that mean the Constellation of Auriga?" Of course, the question was intended to mean the real constellation and the people of Auriga. |
| Must stop procrastination...later... |
| "Yes, I am a tribal chieftain of the Auriga, but do not fret we are but a humble kind" as he smiles warmly at the girl. "But i cannot say the same for the rest of the constellations, we stride through battle but we also stride in peace" as he lets out a sigh and takes off his hood revealing his face. |
|
| Naphthalie Ytteria Location : Blues City Streets "Hmmm..." Naph showed a pondering face. In the bar she works before, she could gather information from the conversations of the customers and that's why she was searching her knowledge base for information about the Aurigas. From what she could remember, the Auriga is a tribal constellation which was split. Although the information might seem unreliable, she'll try to piece things up if she manages to get information about their constellation straight from the horse's mouth. Pissed Off Gauge : 23% "Well," Naph was starting to get annoyed by the rain pouring down heavily on her umbrella while they chat away. "Let's go find ourselves some roof, yes?" |
| Must stop procrastination...later... |
| "Yes of course" as he nods a little. "I believe some people find rain to be annoying correct?" as he starts to walk straight down the road. "Its hard to imagine people here are afraid of the rain this really feels good on the skin for i have not seen so much water in many moons" as he smiles and stares up a little. |
|
| Naphthalie Ytteria Location : Blues City Streets "That may be so." Naph replied in a half-meant tone. True enough, she was annoyed but not by the rain alone, but on the fact that they were chatting under the rain and the guy wasn't even a gentleman enough to hold the umbrella for her. She was also taking note on the speech pattern of the person while she followed him down the road. 'Moons?' Naph thought to herself as she took note. 'That's a different way of telling time.' "I'm not really a rain person, sorry." She tried to make casual talk so as to not create dead air. |

| "Hm.." as he stopped and looked at her with a questionable face. "Is something bothering you?" as he question's her behavior. "We of the auriga can feel the presence of negative emotions.. but yours seem to be directed at something" as he turns completely around and stands firm. "Do you sense danger perhaps?" |
|
| Naphthalie Ytteria Location : Blues City Streets "Nothing at all." Naph was serious about that. Nothing was bothering her, well, nothing that this guy is doing is bothering her, at the very least. It was then that the guy turned his back to her and faced some part of the city. Feeling that something ominous might be afoot, the guy said something before she was going to ask something. "Do you sense danger perhaps?" "I don't understand." Naph wasn't trying to act dumb but, she didn't really know if the feeling she just got was danger. It probably wasn't danger, it was just...ominous. |
| Must stop procrastination...later... |
| "Forgive me, I do not know of customs of other constellations please would you teach me some?" as he looks at her with plea. "The great mother told me to seek guidance and understanding from another constellation, well that or i seek someone from the Cassiopeia constellation" as he implies and turns around. "Shall we get going then?" as he looks at her with a little bit of concern. |
|
| Naphthalie Ytteria Location : Blues City Streets "The great mother told me to seek guidance and understanding from another constellation, well that or i seek someone from the Cassiopeia constellation" Pissed Off Gauge : 37% Naph raised an eyebrow when he said that. She never said she was a Cassiopeian, nor was her birthmark visible, and that made her wonder how this guy somehow knew. She decided that she won't be sharing her information after that. "Shall we get going then?" the guy asked with a bit of concern. Pissed Off Gauge : 42% "Let's. And what made you think I'm a Cassiopeian?" She asked to confirm something. |

| Nana walked around Blues City with no sense of direction. She hated to admit it, but she was lost and she damn well knew it. Not only that, but she had no idea what she was doing in this city. It was so... plain. And definitely too calm for her. She needed adventure. Looking around, she pushed her wet hair out of her face, frowning because of the constant rain. "What to do... what to do?" she asked herself, whistling. |
 |
| stops in the middle of the street and looks back a little with only his eyes visible. "I know because of natural instinct" as he puts his sight forward. "My race has always been... somewhat uncivilized and we rely solely on our shamans and tribesmen... for that is all i can say" as he puts a little anger in his words. |
|
| As she walked around the corner of an alley, Nana noticed two people talking. She stopped, stepped back, and went back into the alley. People were easily her most constant cause of irritation. As the rain pit-pattered against the floor, she lifted up the hood of her jacket and leaned against the wall, listening to the bickering between the two people. |
|
| Naphthalie Ytteria Location : Blues City Streets "I know because of natural instinct...My race has always been... somewhat uncivilized and we rely solely on our shamans and tribesmen... for that is all i can say" Naph's conversation partner sounded angry. She wasn't surprised at all though. Who wouldn't be after getting their lives pried open. Like how she was right now. Pissed Off Gauge : 57% 'Instincts. That's dumb.' Naph thought. 'But if this instincts of his are authentic, then this guy might be either a high ranking official or a prodigious child.' "Hey now, Hey now. No need to get so angry now, alright?!" Naph tried to calm him down despite being quite pissed off herself that is sounded more like an arguing tone. She knows that talking in an angry tone wouldn't resolve anything. And she knows that she herself is easily angered thus it would be better if there was only one of them who's angry. |
| Must stop procrastination...later... |
| "hm, you are right" as he lets out a sigh "forgive me but i am truthfully lost in this kind of environment" as he gestures to move to some shelter beside a small library. "Perhaps you must be going to your bar?" as he is confused on what he just spoke of. "for it would seem i am taking some of your time perhaps?" as he pulls his hood back and looks down a bit on the young girl. |
|
| Naphthalie Ytteria Location : Blues City Streets "Whatever are you talking about?" Naph tried to throw him off. She remained to think that hiding her information was the best decision. If the guy's intuitiveness is this sharp, then she'll have to continue throwing him off. "But..." Naph continued. "...bar or not, Indeed, I have some places I need to be." She tried to wave a goodbye before leaving but found out that she can't since one hand was holding groceries and the other is holding the umbrella up. She decided to just wave the umbrella a little bit from side to side before walking away. |
| Must stop procrastination...later... |
| Nana stands her ground, watching the girl walk away. There were a ton of reasons why she ignored other people, so it was normal for her to stay hidden- even if there was no danger here. Seeing the grocery bags in the girls hands, Nana smirked to herself. She'd thought the city was so barren that they wouldn't have places to buy food, but apparently she was wrong. Food was exactly what she needed right now, considering she hadn't eaten in days. She reached into her pocket and counted a dollar in cents. Sighing, she shoved the money back into her pocket. She'd need to find a job to complete for money before wasting it all on food. |

|
| as he looks at the girl walking away and turns to his left and proceeded to walk he lets out a sigh. "Hmm.. what should I do now.. this place.." looks around again "is too barren for me.." suddenly his left eye caught something in the dark "Who's there?!" he shouted "I am well armed and trained!" as he grips the hilt of something on his back. |
|
| As she heard a quick shout coming from the boy, Nana sighed. Obviously people would be protective of themselves in such a city, but she meant no harm. Fighting would just be stupid. So, with a little laugh, she walked out from behind the alley wall, her hoodie casting a shadow over her face so her tattoo stays hidden. Nana held her hands into the air, in a surrendering motion. "Calm down, I was only watching." |
|
| he immediately stops and slowly pulls his hand off something from his back and looks at the girl. "Watching?" as he asked in the fly. "For what reason do you watch someone?" as he folds his arms and looks at the girl intensely. |
|
| Nana shrugged, chuckling. "Because watching kills time. Watching is interesting." She walked closer to him, her feet splashing in a tiny puddle. She looks up at him, letting the light touch her face and revealing the Taurus birthmark scattered across her left eye. "And who would you be?" |
|
| "I am Lupushion Tribal Chief of the Sky Piercers and a humble follower of auriga" as he spoke with respect. "And i can see you are of the taurus constellation" as he looks down on her a little and smiles a little as well. "I have not seen tauren people in many of my time" as he ponders to himself. |
|
| Nana raised her eyebrows in question. Sure, people had long titles to their name, but usually they didn't reveal their full titles upon first meeting. Now she felt it to be her responsibility to give him her full name too, despite it being unjust in her head. She placed her hands on her hips and looked up at him. "I'm Nana Koira, warrior of the Bull and traveler of Taurus," she said clearly, smiling. She shrugged. "With our constant battles to the death, most of us are dead. A dying constellation, if you will." From the corner of her eye, she watched another person walk by, but decided to currently ignore it unless they got closer. |
|
| "I know of what you speak" as he pulls of his hood revealing his face. "But seeing one of you in person makes me very confident that your race will somehow raise again" as he lets out a small friendly smile appear on his face. |
|
| Looks at his face. A strong one, she thought, remembering that her face was already revealed. Being so open scared her, so she made sure not to give away much else. She gave him a happy grin and clasped her hands together. "Exactly. I plan on letting out race continue." And she did believe that, but so far her idea of trying to make Taurus's live longer isn't going well. Suddenly, despite their 'fun' conversation, Nana spun around on her heel. Her foot pushed into the earth's surface and gravel scattered across the pavement. She didn't bother asking who he was. "What's your business here?" she asked loudly. |
|
| looks at the direction she spun to. "hm?" as he questions her movement in his mind. |
|
| Nana let down her strong stance and put her arms on her side. The little pebbles from the ground kept bouncing, but she became calm. If someone tells her they mean no harm, there's usually truth in it- although that didn't mean she was letting down her guard. She wiped off her hands on the sleeves of her jacket and looked at the man. He didn't look violent, but then again, you could never judge someone from their appearances. "You're right, it's none of my business," she said, turning around. |
|
| "You are very observant of the surroundings lady nana" as he lets out a small smile. "Do tauren have such keen eye sight?" as he ponders with the question. |
