The world was terrifying. Not only were there germs, diseases, and possible health hazards everywhere, but there were also dangerous people out there. Mirabella knew that all too well, and had far too many run-ins with them. She feared for her life almost constantly, and one of the few people she actually trusted that ripped it all away from her.
Her life would still go on, though, and she wasn't planning on anything stopping her. No matter how horrific her predicament had been, she couldn't afford to just sink into a pit of despair. Mirabella honestly didn't think things were going to get better, but she couldn't even let her stop herself from moving on in life. She was scared to continue on, but she did nonetheless.
That, of course, would lead her to the Ascendants. Yet, despite the peaceful reputation the group found, the serval couldn't build up the courage to speak. She sat at the border, her entire body shaking. A constant stream of what-ifs and overthought worries crossed her mind. What if they weren't peaceful? Would they hurt her? Maybe she was walking into a trap.
Deep breaths. In and out. In and out. While she didn't feel any less anxious, her shaking had stopped. Now there was just a swell of nervousness in her chest, threatening to explode and make the situation even worse. She opened her mouth to speak, but no words came out. Was she really this nervous? This was embarrassing. So, so, embarrassing. Tiny, frustrated tears formed at the corners of her eyes, though they didn't fall. No, no, no- she couldn't cry over something like this. She already looked stupid enough being unable to even talk.
"H-hello? Uh-" her voice came out, rather quietly. Crap. She was sure that someone could've heard her. Well, there was no going back now. "Uh- hey. Hi- Is anyone out there- hello?" She was clearly nervous, and honestly, Mirabella was almost humiliated by how anxious she sounded.
//hh, sorry if this is a bit of a mess-
