Lady Two

            Well this was different.  

           At first she had started to become worried; it has seemed the woman was having trouble breathing. But her demeanor lifted almost immediately, and Nanna barely had a chance to react before she was in the mage’s space, her eyes widening she she finds her face within the other’s hands.  

      "Um…"

           Slightly uncomfortable to say the least.

      "My…magic. You mean my magic?”

           Well, she wasn’t wrong in her previous observation. There was power within her as well, for her to in turn sense it within Nanna. Was that magic? She wasn’t sure. It was…strange. Different than any sort of power she’d felt before. Large, in a way, and somewhat erratic. Whatever it was, or what this woman was or her intentions, Nanna couldn’t be sure just yet.

      "I did not get it from anywhere. It is merely something I have always had. I was born with it."

      "Born with it?          .... that can't be." 

  Despite her shattered state, Two was well enough to comprehend a lot of what this stranger said and knew enough that such events weren't possible in Midgard. Wizards, Mages and the like often had to sacrifice much of their humanity to gain magical ability. 

   Only the ancient times were humans born with such a gift, but all had died out. That's till the Intoner's came to be, of course. "......."

            Nanna wasn’t quite sure what to make of this woman, clad head to toe in blue. The way she swayed in place, and from what she could see of her eyes, she did not seem to focus on any one thing in particular. Something felt a little off, leaving the mage wondering if she was alright.

           And then she spoke, and her back straightened in response.

      "…Miss?" Her brows draw together, assuming the statement was directed at her. Nanna was fairly certain she’d not met this woman before; she’d likely remember if she had. Her general appearance aside, there was a strange…power about her. Something the Warden couldn’t describe, but it set her senses on alert. A hesitant step was taken towards the cerulean woman.

      "Are you alright, my lady?"

              ".........."

    Snapping her attention to the woman entirely now, Two continued to sway left to right, her breathing heavy and almost otherworldly; as if two were breathing for one. Like her throat was slowly being closed off and she was clawing for more air, "are you?" 

   Yet her once mellowed and depressed-like state quickly took a one eighty and flipped her around to a more peppy outward appearance. With a spin on the edge of her heel, the Intoner of Mercy trotted her way closer to the mage in question.

                    "Power...                        Where did you get it?"

    Just out of the corner of the Intoner's eye did she spot a woman draped in both velvet and cotton, while her ringlet curls draped just at the back and shoulders, with an expression of both confusion and hesitance. 

                This hesitation was not unwarranted. 

   The Intoner of Cerulean had been swaying left to right just a few inches away, with her head downcast to the ground and her shoulders slumped, while her bright eyes fixated on random objects that either passed by or flickered in the light of the sun. 

❝It sure is a beautiful day but, run? I don’t know about that, we’ve done a whole lot of walkin’ today, runnin’ doesn’t sound like it’d be too enjoyable. You can go on ahead and do that though, I’ll just sit here and watch your pretty figure twirl around and what not.❞

                    "Hahaha! But... But Maaaggooooo." 

   "Hold in there, Three! We're almost there -- see?!? One said we'd be staying in that Inn right there, and you can sleep on a bed instead of in the street!" Two chirped while marching along through the now scarce market place. Due to the sun setting, the sisters had decided to make for the nearest city and rest before they headed out again to defeat the next Lord. 

   The excitement got the better of everyone, though, and separated they all became. Each given a small amount of coin by One to purchase food and other necessary items, and it was no surprise that while on her little adventure she stumbled ( literally ) over her baby sister; Three, in the middle of the walk. Why had no one tried to wake her?! Oh well, she supposed that was the job of a big sister, after all! Watching out for the little ones, carrying them around on your back, too!

       "Hey! Are you awake, yet?!"
