55th of Summer, 510AV
Ora had found The Stone Garden on accident one day while wandering the streets of Sylira. She was surprised by its beauty, even with it’s saddening meaning the young woman realized this was a place of mourning and celebration of bravery and strength. Since her first visit, the pale woman found herself visiting the site often, frequently it was void of any living creature which invited the timid woman to practice her dancing.
There wasn’t anywhere private for the young woman to dance, her currently home was too small, she was likely to hurt herself or easily break something, but, at the stone garden it was a place of peace of memorial, the young woman would quietly tell the souls who died for this place that she was thankful for them with each visit.
The morning of the 55th was like any other. The young woman woke and dressed, ate a small breakfast. Today was a dancing day, it was slightly overcast and cool out, odd for the middle of summer, but Ora enjoyed such weather. The woman gathered a pair of small, black dancing shoes, and placed them in her small bag along with enough food to nibble on throughout the day.
Ora left her home and happily walked through the streets of Sylira, it was early, only thirty chimes after the seventh bell once she was out of her abode. Ora had become much more comfortable with herself in her new city; she was comfortable enough to not feel the need to hide her race under her cloak.
The young Konti reached The Stone Garden with a smile on her face. “Hello, my dear knights,” Ora spoke in her native language, it rolled smoothly and naturally from her tongue. “I’m here to dance for you again, I hope that’s alright.” The young woman sat on a stone bench off to the side of the garden. She took her dancing shoes from her bag and began to lace them up her thin legs. “I enjoying coming and dancing here,” The woman smiled as she finished lacing up her shoes. “Thank you.” She said in common to the silence around her.
As soon as she finished speaking to the stones around her, the vibrant violet eyes vanished behind pale white eyelids. Her arms moved fluidly, her fingers pointed, her feet nimble. She seeming floated across the stones, her eyes opening slightly as she moved slowly. Her dance was from a traditional dance on her Isle. The movements were slow and fluid, as if she was surrounded by water. Ora stopped suddenly, frowning. “I am sorry, Sirs, it seems I’ve made a mistake.” With a small sigh, the young Konti started again.
