As she did so, she noticed a blue-haired girl walking up to them and offering a hand to the downed adventurer. So that must have been a companion then. All the same, it took the “Mysterious Lady” a long while before she looked down on herself. Realization kicked in and she nearly facepalmed were it not for the hood. [color=82ca9d]“Oh, I see. Ah, that would confuse people now wouldn’t it? Then allow me….”[/color]

With a theatric arm sweep, the woman cast aside her dark coat to the far winds. The clothing dissipated with a soft green hue as the [url=https://i.imgur.com/rwErVvm.jpg]figure[/url] beneath was finally revealed. Most of the villagers didn’t bother to look as usual. Magic and whatnot were commonplace in this shattered world and Rivenwood was a gathering hole for weirdos anyway. All the same, some of them did gaze in awe at the woman’s more…magical assets.

[color=82ca9d]“….to introduce myself! There’s no need to fret dears. I should be the one apologizing for my grouchy tone earlier when clearly you two are simple adventurers on a grand quest,”[/color] the woman cheered. Seeing Rose and Kanbaru together, she locked eyes with the bluenette for a moment. There was a stench unbeknownst to Kanbaru clinging to her form, a scent of trouble that the woman was too familiar with. But she paid little heed in acknowledging it.

[color=82ca9d]“The name’s Bella, dears. And your names would be…?”[/color] Bella leaned in expectedly, not going to be satisfied until a proper introduction was given. And once it was, she continued with, [color=82ca9d]“Such brave ladies you are. Your outfits tell me you’re ready to explore the worlds, no?”[/color] Worlds? That was an interesting way to put it. What was even more interesting was how Bella looked at Rose now with a small smirk. [color=82ca9d]“You need to be prepared when traveling. Is that why you stole my card~?”[/color]
