Sohalia
As they lifted above the trees and Tal relaxed, Sohalia found herself enjoying the flight. What the young man said made sense, and she appreciated the sentiment. She flashed him a warm smile. Now that they were in the air, she was beginning to see the appeal of skyship travel, especially when she contemplated the long-distance travel she would need in order to see more of the world. It would take ages by wing - skyship sailing would be much easier.Tal grinned at her and Sohalia warmed, pleased to see her friend excited. She leaned against the railing and took a moment to enjoy the view as Tal talked. There wasn't much to see - mostly treetops, broken by the winding curves of the Symphony - but it was beautiful all the same. A tickle of nerves caught in the back of her mind, but it was easy to ignore. She sighed happily, no longer quite sure what she'd been so afraid of.
"Hmm," she said in response to Tal's question. "That's tricky! There are so many. I really love cardinals, especially in winter. The red feathers against the snow - there's nothing quite like it. But my favorite?" She grinned mischievously. "Probably owls."
it's just a spark, but it's enough to keep me going
