Cleaning her throat, she sat on the ground, wiggling on the spot as if the sheer excitement of getting to know Ira, and sharing her own experiences was just too much to handle. I was born far north of here, where snow is always abundant. She began excitedly - only for her smile to fade...

Fussing with her own emotions, she struggled to share - but the desire to show Ira she too was willing to open up, to let a friendship blossom, she swallowed the lump in her throat and continued should Ira allow. After my sister took the throne, after my parent's passing, I was exiled and traveled far... She paused for a moment. Eyes falling to the ground as she was deep in thought, for a moment she was lost but shook herself free from those bonds quickly enough to meet Ira's gaze once more, eyes lit brilliantly as she pushed aside her sadness to allow glee to take over once more.
