Two days later, the beautiful lights of Njomon could be seen in the far-off distance. A small knock from Kai's door could be heard as he found himself sitting at a desk within his room. 101Please respect copyright.PENANAaq7EUJob1o
"Come in," he spoke.101Please respect copyright.PENANA1SJk1bH4UP
The door opened before shutting quietly as permission was granted. 101Please respect copyright.PENANAdS1WuIXblX
"Njomon looks amazing at this time of night," a soft voice entered.101Please respect copyright.PENANAyhHLbNCvvo
Kai found his eyes averting away from his map of the Scarfil Expanse and up to the individual standing before him. Blue, sleek hair braided to reveal her worried face. Her blue eyes darted shyly to the ground.101Please respect copyright.PENANAhjaCHEERG7
"Aida," Kai spoke." I wasn't expecting you here, how have things been on the ship?"101Please respect copyright.PENANAQ2pzvMpUwS
"They would be better if you'd come out of this room once in a while."101Please respect copyright.PENANAXCaShIPzqq
Her response shocked Kai but was also true. Kai had spent most of their week-long journey locked away. He tried not to look as astonished when he replied.101Please respect copyright.PENANAZnmjZVjYD6
"Did you know the biggest thing I've been missing up until now was a Booster? This adventure is something I've dreamt of for years, but first I had to manifest this boat's existence for this moment right now. The true beginning of our Journey. We were fortunate that it was at Caecis when it was."101Please respect copyright.PENANAD9LK14g8US
"We were indeed," Aida said in return.101Please respect copyright.PENANAOSKbbDfCvH
"No matter where I am, I have to fight through every obstacle. So, being confined in here seems to be my best option at focusing to plan out our future as Faerlu."101Please respect copyright.PENANAl6KvAonuoS
"Do you enjoy sparring?" Aida asked randomly.101Please respect copyright.PENANA3J48Fv9Ta3
"Of course, but why-,"Kai began to question before being cut off.101Please respect copyright.PENANAfWzUf7i8FQ
"Assuming because I am a woman that I can't fight?"101Please respect copyright.PENANADMwVQ3sHWN
"No, no-," Kai started.101Please respect copyright.PENANAWAXjEfwJop
"I'm kidding. I only ask so that after Portam is finished with some more weapons, I'll know who my sparring partner will be."101Please respect copyright.PENANAFsIwjz0tiE
"Um, sure. But I warn you, I'm a master at my craft," Kai smirked.101Please respect copyright.PENANAEEOSwuIY29
Aida turned to leave, speaking once more.101Please respect copyright.PENANAcEoZ3Qsc3L
"Our home will come to you Kai, stop searching the map and let it come to you," with that she left the room. 101Please respect copyright.PENANAoT5e4vf9sr
Kai glanced down to the map, his eyes searching over it for quite a while longer before folding it and returning it to a drawer within his desk.101Please respect copyright.PENANAiHGOLUpcR3
"It's about time, we will prove them all wrong starting now," he whispered to himself.
