Ru
The voice that rings back is girlish and pleasant, and Hotaru mentally adjusts the age of the newcomer in her mind. Though she does automatically scan surreptitiously for any parent or partner, as she is wont to do with the youth of Caido who seem to habitually grow up and become independent far too fast.
As the girl swims closer Hotaru wades further out to meet her, sharp eyes watching the odd stillness of the girl’s upper half and slow-dawning realization edging closer. “Hello Chrys,” Ru replies warmly, “my name is Hotaru. I’m just exploring as well, enjoying the weather.” As evidenced by the warm, light tan of her skin. “Though I heard there are plantlike creatures here that can aid in breathing underwater. I was hoping to test the truth of that.” Though her powers over wind and air are growing, she doesn’t feel they are strong enough to aid her underwater just yet.
