I went to visit Gridania today. Pokiki wanted some company on the way back, and thing have been kind of quiet lately, anyhow. Besides, it'll be nice to go somewhere cool, and pleasant, and full of rivers and lakes.
There was this girl on the Airship with us. Xaela, I think her people are called. Black scales, right? Her people can be so varied. Pale skinned, dark skinned, blazing eyes of all sorts of colors... she was... well, I used to think grey was just drab, right? But she was all black, and white, and grey, and... I had trouble not looking at her. She didn't seem to pay it any mind. There was just something almost ethereal about her. Like a walking ghost.
Another Xaela sat across from her. He was quiet. Didn't speak. Just looked at her. She smiled at him, but just sat there, staring out over the landscape. She seemed twitchy, kind of. Her hand kept moving. Don't know what that was all about. She smiled at him again when we docked, and then got up and left. She smiled at me, too.
Pokiki practically had to pull me out of my seat while I watched her leave. She was interesting.
