ISLA
Ascended and the sun are not a great mix, so rather than long, hot days with the sand beneath their feet and golden light tanning their shoulders, Isla opts for a moonlight dip in the Oasis. She really doesn't come here often enough - not at all, since Ascending, she doesn't think. And oh but it makes a difference under the light of the moon, her eyes cutting easily through the shadows.
Exhaling a sigh that's as relaxed as it is full of awe, her gaze dances between softly pulsing glowstones to the shadows that ripple upon the water. "I never expected it to feel so alive out here," she murmurs to Varus. Because even if it's tranquil, even if they are alone, the Oasis is anything but quiet to her keen senses. "This is wonderful."
