Sohalia
It was a beautiful day for a flight: clear and sunny, with not a cloud in the sky. This kind of early Flowerbirth day was Sohalia's favorite, and it was not uncommon for her to shift into her snowy owl form and enjoy the fresh spring air. Today, though, she'd be flying in something a little different.Sohalia paced back and forth on the banks of the Stone Symphony, wringing her hands nervously. Today was the day she had been both longing for and dreading: the day she would board her first skyship and take flight. It wasn't the flying that scared her - she flew all the time. It was the deathtrap that was a skyship that was the problem. She fundamentally did not understand how they worked, and that lack of knowledge frightened the young woman.
Movement caught her eye, and she paused in her pacing, glancing up to find that Tal and Boreal were approaching. She perked up immediately, raising her hand to wave enthusiastically at her friends. She was still nervous, but she trusted Tal. If he said it was safe, then it was safe. And him being the pilot was better than some stranger. After all, flying around in a skyship was his job, and no harm had come to him yet that Sohalia could see.
"Tal!" she squealed as he drew closer. "It's so good to see you again!"
