[b][color=00ffae]"Are we... all going the same way? Uhh... Hana? Right?"[/color][/b] [color=00aeef]"If we are all here for the Indigo League, and our first challenge is north of Viridian, then I would say we are all going the same way, yes,"[/color] Hana answered. [color=00aeef]"And yes, Ezra, my full name was interrupted. I am Hana Tatsuyama, of the Sengun region's Kingdom of Platinos."[/color] It was the exact same choice of words she had given earlier, but it was the best way to ensure everyone was on a level playing field in terms of introductions. As before, she sketched a short bow, though this was aimed at no-one in particular due to the larger group. Hana imagined if everyone sketched bows or conducted handshakes all at once, they would be standing outside the Laboratory for longer than some of them would like. [color=00ffae]"Sengun... [i]really?[/i]"[/color] It was a region that was rarely discussed. Naturally the name caught his attention. [color=00ffae]"I got family out there! An aunt and uncle (well, [i]great[/i] aunt and uncle) in Mystriver Isle!"[/color] He said, trying his hardest to keep his voice and tone regulated. [color=00ffae]"They own a dojo out there. Last we talked to them, they were planning on passing ownership down to their son."[/color] He nodded and crossed his arms. [color=00aeef]"You have family in Mystriver? How curious. I haven't been out that way myself, but that Kingdom is one of the most popular among travellers and folks who wish to move to a new region, as I recall."[/color] Hana paused a moment, thinking this over. Extended family likely meant that one of them had moved to Sengun at some point in their life and settled down there. Ownership of a Dojo - presumably the most well-known in the Kingdom's borders, if Ezra was aware of the details - likely meant that that part of his family line had inherited some Warrior traits, or would do so at some point in the family tree. She didn't give voice to any of this immediately, however, knowing that it would likely overwhelm her new acquaintance with information. That was just bad form. [color=00aeef]"It seems my day is full of surprises,"[/color] she eventually noted aloud.
