I am magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
Exuberant and chatty Seren may be, but she was not insensitive. The lack of joy, the lackluster smile and averted eyes were not lost on her, and some of her own delight faltered. Not faded, not yet, but hiccuped into uncertainty. "Is something wrong? Do you... not get along?" Not a common occurrence in Seren's sunshine world where everyone was either a friend or a family member, but... she thought of Aurelia and tried to picture living under the same roof as the woman. Possibly she would be smiling a bit less like that.
Leaving Melita space to think, to avoid the topic if she wished, the starchild considered Stormbreak instead. The plaza and the fountains, the many statues; the big temple and Dragoon barracks where the sky was thick with dragon wings. "A bit, yes. Everyone is very pious and very sure that their way of doing things is the correct one. They are not bad people, though." Only very fond of rules and order, in the way Torchers loved their drink and their chaos.
"My favorite place... is probably the Celestine. It is a garden that Frey and mother - er, Safrin - made together. It is always twilight there, and there are all sorts of animals being cared for." Tilting her head aside, she considered. "Mh, but I like the Falling too. The city is on the cliffs by the sea, and there is a place where there are geysers. Only, they shoot air instead of water, and if you time it right you can fly. Oh, and the Skyport... there are many many boats sailing through the sky, and when night falls their lanterns glow as they return to the docks. It's very beautiful."
