Bluebird briefly bit her lip. "...It was not always that way. But recent events have turned many of the people in this land... sour, towards Travelers." She shook her head, the dark look on her face quickly wiped away. "However, it appears that Astorea performed an act of great kindness...

A scary world, Attia said. "No more dangerous than the world we live in now. After all, it was the works of man that brought about the downfall of Eden." The statement was very nearly a joke by Mira's standards. Eden, the paradise. Eden, the cult. Both gone, forever out of her reach. Until...

Bluebird nodded. "I do not know where such stores may be here in this city, as I have only recently arrived." She tapped her cheek with one finger thoughtfully. "But there were many such places in Finweald, will all kinds of instruments. I'm sure we can find someone selling a... guitar, you...

AP: 1/3 (1 AP spent, 1 remaining) Location: Grania Trail, Western Brisshal Prompt: Lander Exodus Narrator Tag: N/A Bluebird had experience weathering the ire of others. People looking down on her, or people thinking she was something... lesser, or dangerous, or somehow broken. She knew how to...

Bluebird tilted her head thoughtfully as she sat back down next to Yume. "Well, I simply... knew it, when I first came to this world. After that it has simply been... practice, and experimentation, I suppose. It is hard to put into words." How did one explain the feeling of magic, the way it...

Bluebird nodded. "It is, yes! It is called Harmonic Magic." She hopped onto her feet with a rustling of feathers, before stepping back from Yume and the edge with a twirl. "You can stir the heart with a song, or lead your allies into battle with a rallying cry. You can even manipulate other...

Bluebird returned the nod with her own, wings fluttering as she decided to take a seat next to Yume. She stretched her back and let her legs swing. "My name is Bluebird. It is good to meet you, Yume!" It was a lovely view. In reality, Bluebird didn't care for high places, but Terrasphere gave...

Bluebird wished she had found Oflainn sooner. The world of Terrasphere was already quite fantastic, especially compared to reality. But Oflainn was something straight out of a fairy tale. The towering tree alone was remarkable, but the village built within its branches was beyond anything she...

What is the current situation with the Yladian diaspora that settled in Astorean territory? Are they also migrating, or are they remaining within their current enclaves? Does Falderen's new approach as the "lander kingdom" affect the relationship between the two?

"They are quite interesting, are they not?" Mira nodded, her smile more sincere. A note of excitement colored her voice now. "It was only recently that I began playing. Technology is not my forte, as you may have guessed." It was, after all, the one thing she was known for. "It is a good...

"Then let us put this unfortunate chapter behind us," Bluebird said. Ruby seemed calm now. Bluebird certainly felt better, even as her voice scratched against her throat. She coughed softly, once again trying to clear the phantom sensation of EVE's cutting song. She looked around and couldn't...

Bluebird nodded, expression neutral as she listened. "I have... heard those stories," she eventually said, voice low. And she had - heard them spoken among the travelers repairing camp Ilusus, or whispered by the people within the villages and cities she'd traveled through. "And there are faces...

Bluebird hesitated a moment, still gently patting Ruby's back. She was... unused to this kind of contact. But it wasn't unpleasant, and Ruby seemed to need it far more than she did. She hummed softly, a melody meant to soothe pain and quiet tears. "...thank you, Ruby. And next time... maybe...

Bluebird was quiet, her breathing slowly calming as Ruby spoke. She heard the scattered emotions within her words, a song of sorrow and regret silently ringing. She gave Ruby the space to lean back, to look at her face to face. Bluebird's expression had softened - still controlled, but no...

Mira smiled, accepting the handshake and taking the seat. The young woman carried herself well, with reserved movements and perfect posture. It was the sort of performance one might reserve for a public showing, and it didn't fit here, in this place meant to be a casual resting place. Alas, she...

No matter how she wished otherwise, Bluebird... no, Mira could not simply spend all her life within Terrasphere. Certainly, she could live comfortably on the money saved and invested by the people that managed her, but they kept her moving, like a bird forever migrating from place to place...

Bluebird rode the wind, her warbling whistle lost amidst the squall. The air sang with terror, and beneath it all was the sharp bite of the machine song, inaudible save for the way it made her throat ache in remembrance. It was too strong to tear apart on her own, and she had heard no others...

145 Vulnerable Cold: 0 Location: Zone 2: The Leviathan's Body Until now, she had stayed back and let the others fight. The wood of the oar was rough beneath her fingers, but the labor was comforting, and it let her focus on more subtle ways to help, keeping the hearts of the others roused as...

Bluebird froze as Ruby closed the distance, eyes wide as her instincts warred with themselves. The desire to freeze, to run, to even go so far as to strike back in self defense. But this was Ruby. This was her first friend in Terrasphere. Perhaps her first true friend in years. A phrase floated...

There was no chance for Bluebird to catch herself - not when Ruby could move that much faster than her. And in the time between their last meeting and now she had improved. Fortunately, so had Bluebird. She saw the wall approaching, and opened her mouth to warble hoarsely. The air swirled...
