"Thank you." And she'd be quiet for the rest of the flight.

January 3rd, 7000 years AGW 11:11 AM Sinis Time
Spire. Utopia. It looks like Utopia, what you can see peering over the large, marble and brass walls. The spires of brass and gold point upwards inside, skewering bubbles of glass and marble. The gates to the city are closed. As always. They, unlike the rest of the place, are lightly set, almost like glass, but whatever they are, they probably aren't actually made of glass. In the center of them is the outline like an oak leaf, done in gold.
Just inside is a small hut, with a lounging in a chair watching for newcomers. |

Anidae nearly drops Rosc again, staring at the city. It's more beautiful than she'd even imagined. (2) She misses seeing the guard and the gate, and would fly over them.

(1) And the guard doesn't notice her, as they are asleep.
Almost as soon as she reaches where the wall extends up, she'd run into some sort of barrier, not stopping her, but slowing her down, and pushing her up, trying to push her over the city.
Rosc's eyes open wide and she stares. "Anidae...what...is this place?" She gasps out.

"Spire..." Anidae breathes, entranced. She almost doesn't notice the barrier pushing her, but when she does, she frowns. "Roscard? We're going to fall. Don't panic, I'm controlling it." And then she stops flying, hopefully putting them both into freefall, assuming a piercing dive position.

For a moment, they hang in the air...absolutely nothing happening, and then begin descending. Once they make it below about the sixth story height, however, they'll start dropping like a rock, Roscardinia clinging tightly to Anidae.

Anidae holds onto Rosc tightly. (5) She's experienced in landings, and if nothing else disturbs her, she'd spread her wings as they approach the ground, slowing them down enough to land gently, feet first, on the street.

"Eep." And Rosc holds onto Anidae tightly until they hit the ground. Once they hit the ground, plants erupt from it and begin to grow madly.

Anidae pats Rosc's back reassuringly. "There, we've landed - we're safe. Are you all right?"

"Eep!" She squeaks out, nodding.

Anidae sighs. "Now what?" She looks around, wondering what sort of city she's just fallen into.

They're in the closest thing Spire has to a suburb. The buildings here are not very tall, ranging from about twenty five stories, all up to forty stories high. The streets don't appear linear at first, instead looking like circles and bubbles of their own, but to a native Spiran, they make perfect sense, each street leading into the next, to minimize walking while maximizing relaxation and safety for any residents. (And also creating a complicated cityscape, handy for if Spire ever is invaded.) The odd park is here and there, holding all kinds of variety to discover. Maybe a Zen garden scape. Or a typical city park. All of them small, not taking up more than two or three plots.
Roscardinia looks around, and would take Anidae's hand, and walk off in a random direction. "Let's find out."

Anidae smiles at Rosc, holding her hand lightly and walking with her. "Alright." She'd probably pause at a particularly interesting park, venturing into it, looking at the plants in interest.

Roscardinia looks around at all the magnificent plants which are now growing faster with her around.
Not far off, there is a lady with white hair cut to chin length, a green bandana over her eyes, pale pink pixie wings on her back, wearing a long green robe and sandals, sitting, a small box beside her, a tall young man talking to her, in a somewhat argumentative fashion it looks like. Her head has turned slightly to face the two more...but she can't see them, so it must be a coincidence. Roscardinia blinks, and keeps close to Anidae.

Jiawe, the tall young man, is clearly a native of Cover, though neither Roscardinia or Anidae are likely familiar enough with Cover to recognize that. "Come on, Yuno. I can guide you-" He pauses. She's not even looking at him. Slowly, he turns to see the two Mythou.
Anidae puts an arm around Rosc. She too sees the two. One a Mythou, the other a human. I wonder if they know where we can stay. "Good morning!" She waves at the odd pair. "My name is Anidae, and this is Roscardinia. What are your names?"

Yunoichi is silent for a moment, watching them.
Then she stands up. "My name is Yunoichi, and this is Jiawe..." Her head is definitely focused on Anidae now, even if she can't see her, she knows where they both are, apparently.

Pffft. Two Mythou can get her to stand up in a second, and I can't in ten minutes?! Jiawe rolls his eyes. "Well hi Anidae, Roscar...dinia." His pronunciation is a bit awkward. "You're new, aren't you?"
Paxian names. Anidae recognizes that, at least. Paxians in Spire? And Jiawe's accent is noticeable. "Yes... we're new. Do you know if there's anywhere to stay near here?"

Roscardinia looks up at Anidae, eyes wide. But outside is nice too?
Yunoichi pulls out her cane, and slowly taps towards them, "Perhaps. How long are you planning to stay?" Why is the other one silent? The leafy, cool green one.

Anidae looks back at Rosc. She can't sense what's in her mind, and just... stares at her in confusion. "What is it, Roscard? And... I'm not sure. Indefinitely."
Jiawe walks with Yuno, offering to guide her.

Roscardinia blinks. "Nothing. Just...so much." And she sits down where she is, and starts playing with the plants as they grow."
Yunoichi's face remains impassive, as she lets Jiawe take her arm and guide her to the two of them. When they get there, she holds out a hand for Anidae to shake. "You have wings."
