Huā took her time as she paced lightly beside the unfamiliar river in the direction of the sea. The strong, chaotic winds were troublesome- they threatened to knock her small frame over- and yet- she had no desire to head inland towards calmer weather. Even though the ocean and the air and the sky seemed angry here, Huā was drawn to the water like a child to a candy shop. Heading into the forest for too long would bother her- restricting her view of the sky or the sea. So, despite the winds, she kept heading in this direction. In the distance she could see the unusually gigantic waves as they rose up, and then crashed, back into the rest of the water. 

At this time it seemed the coast was somewhat devoid of wolves. 他们觉得这里不安全...? She wondered to herself with a snicker. What she was perhaps too oblivious to realize was that, it was, in fact, quite dangerous here. The wind and water that she saw as her friends could quickly become her enemies at any time if Mother Nature decided to let loose. But rather than being cautious enough to head inland- she instead enjoyed the peace. Without other wolves nearby she could relax without being disturbed from her concentration on nature and alone time. 

Huā's ears twitched backward as she heard the slightest noise of approach behind her. She continued her slow walk, debating whether to turn. She was not one who particularly enjoyed company in her times of relaxation, but her curiosity got the best of her.

She swung her charcoal head backwars to look. Two strangers, together in silence. They juxtaposed eachother in an intriguing way- both looking as dull and unkempt as Huā, but the boy had something of a feline elegance to his figure, while the woman looked rough around the edges, face and ears scarred and tattered. But the two seemed to be together- that is how it appeared to Huā.

The woman already seemed disinterested in her, and she was prepared to return to her walk, but the younger boy seemed intrigued. Her blue-green eyes stared at him, expressionless. She wanted to watch them leave before she continued- but with the boy's nose twitching like crazy attempting to catch her scent, she wondered if an interaction would arise.

When Rosalyn decided that Huā had "nothing for them", the unkempt lady was ready to continue on her merry way. She was partway through turning back around already, when suddenly the raggedy stranger spoke again. Spoke of things which Huā had no idea about, and spoke with some hurry and impatience. Rusalka... the willows... And then, the boy added a comment of his own- Elysium. His innocently childsh gaze bore into her own as if in some trance. Why was he staring at her like that? 他没有大脑吗? She wondered silently to herself with an internal chuckle. 

Anyway, the slew of words they threw to her were meaningless in her eyes. "What you speak, I don't know. You were right first. I have nothing for you." She had grown impatient herself, by this couple of strangers disturbing her walk with their presence. Only looking for information to benefit them. How typical. And then, in response to their strange words of the common language which she could not understand, she threw out her own words which she knew would be indecipherable to their ears. "再见, 老太太. 再见, 宝宝." Despite this comment, she remained still, her sharp gaze cutting into them as if prompting them to leave without her words.

The dark woman made to leave again, but hesitated. Meanwhile, the boy only stared more, seemingly shaken by her foreign words. A sneaky little grin crept onto the girl's face at his expression. Then she spoke loudly, as if calling across the sands, wondering if his eyes could widen bigger, if his jaw could drop lower. "什么, 怎么了? 难道你不说中文吗? 太伤心了...现在我们不可以聊天儿这个Rusalka, 这个Elysium..." She smirked to herself, wondering what further effect her words may have on the precious little kid. Surely it sounded like babbling to them, but she had dropped a bit of their own babbling in there, so maybe they'd be intrigued.
