There's a Wide World Out There

Leaving Elysium's territory behind was more exciting than she had originally thought. It wasn't a difficult journey, and their destination wasn't too far away in the grand scheme of things. But the promise of a new healer to learn from outside of the ones that lived on Alias Island was something that she was pretty enthusiastic about. However, the butterflies in her stomach didn't manifest until her mother announced that they had arrived at Valta. Her summons was something that was familiar to her, and the paw along her back brought a sense of comfort. However, when the violet-hued man came into sight, she was immediately captivated.

She sat quietly, though her mind raced as her attention remained fixed on Indigo- as he came to introduce himself. As he offered a little dip before them, she couldn't help the grin that began to tug at the corners of her lips. "I'm Mariah ..." She started, for the first time in her life, suddenly feeling a little sheepish. She cast a quick glance to her mother for reassurance, before continuing on. "What first?" Mariah asked curiously, ready to get started as soon as they could.
