ROANA
Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me?
Roana grinned at him. "Day three after the first workout after a long break is always the worst. You'll be butt-bumping down the stairs of your guildhall I bet." she joked with a small snicker. A run like this in a new, completely unconditioned body? Yeah. He was going to be feeling this for awhile. She made a mental note to check on him so he wouldn't find himself with a screaming child and the inability to get up from wherever he sat himself. Staring straight back at me?
She nodded at what he described. Seemed about right. While he panted, she was perfectly fine, breathing steady and unperturbed by the exercise. "Maybe, maybe not. Some of the things people said as insults others would call my best features. Though the best one was 'Outlander whore'." she said with scoff, rolling her eyes. "But if starting a riot and making damn near everyone hate me helped prompt whatever got the Spire open, and the barrier down, I would do it again in a heartbeat." she said without any hesitation. It was difficult, being probably one of the most hated people in the area, but whether people liked her or not hadn't been the objective. Bringing down the barrier had. But now there was a new objective...and she was pretty sure she wouldn't be able to do it alone.
The stopped near another structure so Ronin could catch his breath. "Try keeping your hands relaxed and not in fists. Helps you not run out of steam so fast." she said, having observed his form on their run and wanting to be helpful. Of course, his brain obviously still remembered what good form was, but getting an untrained body to do it was a significant challenge. He spoke of freedom and she frowned a little, stretching her calves while he recuperated. "Ronin...I'm going to suggest something, and I want you to really consider it and don't just say no right away." she said after a moment of silence. "But first...do you know why the barrier was put up in the first place? And why and how we were brought here?"
Why is my reflection someone
I don't know?
I don't know?
