She sized the two; Anne already had a very good opinion of Dodger in her mind, and with him having lived in Vaald for the longest of the two, he was bound to know one or two things more about the city and it's denizens. Especially about the Dreamers, Anne felt that the ones appearing in the Lunar Festival would certainly not be the only ones. There were bound to be more, preferring to remain hidden between the shadows of the capital. [color=forestgreen][i]"Gnara's teachings should reach those unfortunate souls as well..."[/i][/color] Anne sighed inwardly as she shook hands with Isyph, who then promptly walked towards the exit of the Guild Center. Be it because she was distracted by her thoughts, or because she had simply gotten used to getting stared at, Anne did not notice Isyph's eyes lingering on her for a moment. [color=FFDAB9][b]"The temple to Gnara should be by the Serene Pools if I remember right. We should get headed there, soon,"[/b][/color] Isyph said. Anne paused for a moment, thinking of something, before nodding in approval. [color=forestgreen][b]"Let us be on our way then,"[/b][/color] she said and strolled right outside. [hr] On the way to the Serene Pools, Anne asked her new friends a lot about the city and whatnot. Since she was new in town and would certainly spend quite some time in the capital, at least until all of the festivities and rituals were over, Anne was eager to know more about Vaald. [color=forestgreen][b]"So, I presume the two of you have known each other for a long time, right? When I entered the Guild Center building searching for information, I noticed that you were sitting on the same table,"[/b][/color] Anne said curiously. [color=forestgreen][b]"You were quite engrossed in your reading those papers, Isyph. What were you doing, If I may ask?"[/b][/color] she added, opting to use a more informal tone with the two, much like how Isyph had previously done.
