Nayru was nervous. 

From what she had heard of the Ascendants, she knew that she really didn't have anything to worry about. They were peaceful and kind and would never hurt a child such as herself, she was well aware of that. But despite their overall gentle disposition, she still felt as if this was a massively terrible idea. What if they didn't like her? Or worse, what if they didn't like Chad? She had brought her alligator companion with her, too afraid to leave by herself and too unsure to ask Fenris or Amunet to come with her. She was almost an adult and more importantly, she was the Sawbone of her clan. If she couldn't muster up enough courage to abandon her territory for even a little bit while she interacted with a new ally, than she had a serious issue.  That being said. she really wasn't permitted to go anywhere without her reptile friend following close behind. If she didn't know any better, she would have thought him to be a puppy trapped in an alligator's body.

[b][color=#6b7e99]"Um.. Hi.. Hello?" Nayru would call out, cerulean gaze brimmed with worry. It felt strange, being out of the swamp and all. Here, there were rolling fields and flowers and an Observatory- no muddy waters and foreboding muck that could swallow a girl her size whole. Admittedly, their territory was a beautiful place, one that, had circumstances been different, she could have seen herself thriving within. She straightened her posture then, forcing herself to tilt her chin up and pull her shoulders back. She was a princess, born and raised, and no matter how scared and nervous she felt on the outside, she had to show them that she was unfazed. Unbothered.

[color=#6b7e99]"My name is Nayru and my companion goes by the name of Chadwick," she paused, permitting the tiny gator at her paws to hiss merrily, [color=#6b7e99]"And we come from Tanglewood. I just wanted to.. uh.. talk to your medics if that was okay?"

Her attention was first drawn to Bastilleprisoner who, thankfully, was a familiar face. She appeared rather pleased to see him home in one piece, having worried about him given the deadly nature of the Tanglewood swamp. He seemed a bit... apathetic, but it wasn't anything that bothered Nayru. No, she preferred casual indifference over something like, say, rage or hostility. [b][color=#6b7e99]"Hi," She greeted quietly, nudging Chad as he began to hiss louder now- remembering Bastille from his prior visit. For an alligator, her companion was surprisingly intelligent and continued to shock her with new developments in his behavior time after time. [color=#6b7e99]"I just wanted to... um... ask for some help actually. I also wanted to see if you all had some herbs that we don't and vice versa, things are a bit funky in the swamp," She confessed, glancing down at Chadwick as if he was the funkiest thing to emerge from the muck.

As Radeken arrived, Nayru would frown. She wasn't saying that she was intimidated by the other female but there was something that made the timid Sawbone retreat into herself a bit, pale paws shuffling against the ground. When she looked towards Chad, Nayru was met with the strong desire to usher him from sight, feeling unsettled and uncomfortable and most importantly, awkward. There wasn't anything wrong with Rad... she had just lied: the canine was indeed rather intimidating. [color=#6b7e99]"Like I said, I wanted to uh... talk herbs... and maybe get some help."

At least Wren didn't seem too perturbed by her arrival, actually managing to coax a faint smile out of her with his simple greeting. [color=#6b7e99]"Nayru, if you didn't catch it," The tiny scientist responded. Her blue eyes would flicker to the snake, widening with intrigue as she wondered if he, too, worked to train and hone its abilities. [color=#6b7e99]"It's so cool that you have a reptile too!" She chimed brightly, suddenly behaving much more relaxed than literally a few moments ago. [color=#6b7e99]"And hello, Luna," Se finally greeted, her words aimed in the direction of the last to arrive.

At least everyone seemed as nice as she had heard.

She still wished Fenris or Amunet were with her though.
