Considering that Arialla still spent a good bit of her time beachcombing, finding shells and other trinkets to trade, the trashed beach was quite a blow. She'd taken part in beach cleanups at home -- though the storms there were never this bad -- but hesitated to attempt such a monumental task alone ... so, of course, Melita's notice seemed like a godsend.
Arialla showed up bright and early, carrying a few bags that she thought might be useful for smaller debris, once they had the big pieces moved out of the way -- though maybe that was getting ahead of herself. She put her bags down near one of Milo's piles as she greeted the others: "Hello, Melita; it's good to see you again." To Milo: "I don't think I know you, but I'm glad to meet you. My name is Arialla."
Pleasantries complete, Arialla started grabbing debris for the two piles, finding a thick plank off of some destroyed building or ship the first object to come to hand.
please don't take my sunshine away
