After the recent events, Leila was simply exhausted. Both emotionally and physically. To regain some of her strength, she decided to spend some time in local park instead of sleeping like a proper human being. She arrived in the evening, but before she settled down under one of the bigger trees, the sun was already sleeping behind the horizont. With no one around, Leila removed her cape and revealed the silver hair, slightly shining in the darkness. And from her bag, a little furry creature hoped out. Her precious pet Ori, who was finally free to run around a bit. Watching him for a while, Leila eventually gave in to the sound of crickets and running water in the distance. Her back leaning against the strong tree, she sighed. It seemed that there was not a soul around. And it was understandable, it was pretty much middle of the night. Pulling out a small lantern and turning it on, she now had enough visibility to open her book. A story of a villainous princess and her twin brother. A little stretch before she would start reading managed to get a small yawn out of her as well. But being in a nature was mostly better for her than sleeping anyway, so it was all fine. Quickly finding the bookmark that was somewhere in the middle of the book, she finally started getting herself back into the story.
As she was reading, a small though entered her mind. She was supposed to make new friends at point... but how would she make them? Would she search for them? Or maybe she would obtain one by a simple, random encounter? Well, that was probably up to the gods to decide. For now, she just continued reading in the warmth of her big coat, not paying much attention to occasional passersby.
