RUNNER UP | open + ascendant on the border

[london r.]

There had been a few unfortunate occurrences within the Snowbound lately, an attack that had ended in death and another similar but more puzzling death. London wasn't quite sure what to make of it. The atmosphere seemed to have changed the slightest, but she did her best to remain unaffected by it. It would be a shame if there was a storm that passed without leaving a rainbow after all, someone had to be the sun. Though that was easier said than done, especially for someone running from the deaths of her loved ones. Perhaps she wasn't meant to be a sun, as there was melancholy deep within her veins, but the girl didn't feel like giving up either. Why should the gloom win, there were still plenty of other things to smile about.

And one such thing was the newcomers that always found their way to the border. The clouded leopard had greeted a few of them already, so she knew what to look for, but this guy seemed different. Initially she couldn't place it, but as she neared Jacob and the stranger, something stuck out about him. His scent. It was not one she knew, but it held a similar quality to that of clans. She had yet to visit the other clans, but she knew Killua had. And Jacob had been to the Typhoon, but now by choice. This guy didn't smell like those pirates though, so perhaps he came from one of the other groups, Tanglewood or the Ascendants? Just the thought of learning something about either of those groups made a smile light up the albino's visage.

"Hello." the girl chirped. Her voice remained as soft as it usually was, holding that warm, melodic tone and of course her accent. How would she be able to live up to her name without having an ironically British accent? London wondered what another clan could possibly be doing here, seeing as she was pretty sure none of the others that resided within this snowy wonderland had been kidnapped by wherever group this stranger came from. That was the only reason another clan had come here before, other than when Guru had decided to cause trouble. But this boy looked kind enough not to go around attacking the first person that caught his interest. Hopefully she wasn't wrong to make that assumption.
