A male approached them, greeting the sisters in a cheerful manner. Ellisa was so nervous however that she could only dip her head to the man in hello, pressing into her sibling's shoulders. He introduced himself as Leo, Sovereign of Fiori, whatever that meant, and asked if Ritz knew her and Sorya. Pretty sure her voice would break if used, the girl would look to Ritselli and hope she would do the talking for now, eyes almost pleading silently. When names were given, Ellisa nodded her head as she looked to Leo. "I..." Voice was a whisper initially but the girl would swallow and take a deep breath. "I d-don't know much, but I can learn!" Voice was shaking, sounding more like she was trying to convince herself more than the leader.
