The town was smaller than Kyra had been expecting. It stretched beyond her immediatey vision, but it wasn't the bustling centre of population that she had been expecting to find. Still, it was safe, it was welcoming, and above all else - it wasn't a road surrounded by trees on all side.
Smiling, mostly to herself, she took her first steps towards the town, following the small Fae being as they began to explore. The town was lovely, reminding her of some of the smaller communities that she'd visited in the past. She could see the almost communal attitude that seemed to hover over the air; the concept of supporting your neighbour one engrained into the very essence of the community.
"It truly is lovely here, isn't it? Almost like a dream come true, in some ways."
She knew that one day, she would look back on this and realise the evils that hid beneath the facade, but for the time being, she was happy to enjoy her illusions. It appeared that her companion was just as accepting, bouncing from place to place, trying to take everything in.
It brought a comfort to her that she hadn't expected, as if watching a child exploring the world for the first time. An innocence that she herself could feel at times, one that she valued so highly.
"Perhaps there is peace to be found, in ignorance and bliss. Simple, yet lovely...let's enjoy this while we can."
