It was another boring day on Odayakana Island, even for Sia who could always find something to keep her busy. Working near the port, there were always ships coming in that needed repair, and the work load was always heavy. She had been here for two and a half years, and in that time with her hard working nature, she had built a reputation as an accomplished ship wright in town next to the owner of the shop where she worked. she had been hard at work on a ship that came into port two days ago, not that it was anything she couldn't handle on her own, even if it had taken her all night to fix most of the problems. "Sia don't you think you should take a break? You've been working all night" One of the other workers asked. The girl yawned as she looked up to find the owners daughter standing over her, "I'm fine, I don't need one. Besides I'm almost done." "But you've been working on that thing since yesterday morning, and you look like you're ready to collapse."
"I said I'm fine!" She snapped. The girl flinched at her sudden outburst, and held her head down in fear of what she would do next. Sia had seen how she upset the girl as she had started to give her the "You kicked my puppy" face and blushed a little. If there was one person in this town she could tolerate, it was the owner's daughter. The girl was always worried about her health when she wasn't. "I'm sorry, look if it's that important to you, I'll take a break." She put her hammer down as she yawned once more and stretched her arms as high as she could.
