The Path of the Ancient [open]

The woman meandered the woods, gathering herbs. Some were still
more than available, even with the change in seasons coming
near. The cloak swept the ground behind her. It wasn't so cold
that the winds irritated her cheeks and ears, so her face is
uncovered in cameo relief. Her long dark hair was swept back
from her face in ornate combs.
She carried a covered basket, and moved at a slower pace.
There's something serene and timeless about the woman as she
works. Even her greyed lilac eyes were quiet and calm.

A little fox sized red dragon trotted through the forest.
Normally the little one would have been chasing after some
forest creature, attempting to play with a bunny or a fox.
Today however she was quieter than normal, almost appearing lost
in thought. However inside her mind there was nothing. She
didn't want to think, thinking led to emotions, emotions led
to.....
The little dragon sighed as she contined her wandering. She
noticed the woman, settling those red eyes of hers, currently
duller than normal, on her. She sat slowed her pace and tilted
her head lightly at the woman.

Those lavender eyes moved over the dragon, fey and knowing. She
shook her head, gaze sympathetic. "The scent of heartbreak
lingers over you, little dragonkind. Come speak with me, and
unburden yourself. We will have tea." Aska said, her voice
light. Her English is very clear, but there's the vaguest of
accents in them.
"These trees. they have seen sorrow. And these eyes have, as
well. Come with me, little one. We will have you feeling a
little better soon. Forget the man that garners tears. He is
unworthy. My time has taught me." She held out her hand, to lead
the small dragon through the trees. It was one of the only ways
to find her home.

The little dragon looked confused for a moment, as the woman
spoke. Was she really that easy to read? Shaking her head
lightly at herself, she found herself at ease at the woman's
gaze. The sympathy was real, but she couldn't feel any judging
in it.
The comment about the man being unworthy put a instant of pause
in her movements towards the woman. However in a few seconds
Homura shifted, standing next to the woman in her human form,
feeling safe. She took the woman's hand nodding softly, "Okay."

"Homura-chan!!!" A girl voice is heard as the brunette suddenly
glomped Homura out of nowhere. "I finally able to find you! I
miss you!!!" She said, hugging homura.

Aska had just wrapped an arm around Homura, beginning to lead
her away. The appearance of the other girl made Aska recoil in
her elegant fashion. It was one thing to choose to touch. Quite
another to have it foisted upon her. Her shapely brow arched as
she watched the happenings. It's fairly obvious that Aska is not
leading on until something is done with the newcomer.

Homura was quite shocked when she was practically tackled from
behind. Her face however likely read less shocked, due the
shutdown of her emotions. She looked at Yume with a smile,
although it was a carefully crafted mask. Without knowing her
incredibly well you wouldn't see through it.
"Oh hi Yume. It's been a while." She said quietly. She tilted
her head lightly as she spoke. "You were looking for me? I
didn't know you were back. We should catch up sometime." She
took a half step backwards, wringing her hands together softly.

Yume smiles and pull her up. "Yeah i just got back 2 or maybe 5
days ago, crazy times while i was gone, i will tell you another
times. So what wrong? Love problems, sweetie?" She ask, noticing
her emotions is less and suggesting that it relate to love.
After a min of thinking, she finally look at Aska.
"OOPS! Sorry, I'm Yume Kasai, a friend of Homura. And you are?"
She ask after dusting her off.

Aska watched the interactions, and couldn't understand how the
people of this island could be so very blind. "My name is none
of your concern, and your presumptuous nature is a painful thing
to witness. I will forgive your misstep, because you are very
young. In love, let the aggrieved speak with you. Do not
pressure them. You are making her uncomfortable. Listen and see.
Find her later."
Her cool lavender eyes remained on Yume's for a moment, before
her arm closed around Homura, and both disappear from view. All
that is left behind is the scent of jasmine and honeysuckle. And
Aska's voice whispering a warning. "Be careful in my woods. They
are not always hospitable."

Homura had tensed up at Yume's questions. She wasn't sure how
she was going to respond. As Aska wrapped her arm around her
she let out a sigh of relief and gave her a grateful glance.
"Thank you." she said softly. Feeling pressured into speaking
would have made her spiral further into her own mind, retreating
as far as she could. The woman however had a calming air about
her, Homura felt safe with her.
