Hearing Tifa mention Apple Fritters made Terra chuckle a little. Such simple things that the two of them enjoyed it seemed. For Terra it was but eating them raw or in a pie and it seemed that Tifa enjoyed them inside of this other manner. There would be no judging from her though on this. Hearing Tifa chime up about her own childhood made her smile and quickly she responded to her on that. ”You used to pick them when you were little? That does sound like a great memory…” Terra let her words trail off as she could not remember a single thing from her earliest years of development. As she knew full well that her entire life was just that she was to be a weapon. A weapon without any thought or actions and yet thanks to Tritoch and her friends she was able to actually find herself. Even if it took many years for her to get to this point. Though as the silence began to extend between the two of them Terra was about to say something but it seemed that Tifa’s curiosity was getting the better of herself. The question was a simple one and one that Terra really did not mind answering for those that she figured were also travelers to this world. Glancing over at Tifa from the corner of her eye she decided at that moment to be honest and genuine with her. ”I was pulled here inside of a strange fog. I was out protecting my home from a new influx of monsters and while difficult without my gifts to aid me I had taken down a weak monster. The fog rolled in on me while I was on my way home and I rested in a natural hollow of a tree. When I emerged I was here in the crystal clear sunshine of the day.” She spoke honestly but without revealing a lot of what she truly was. All she mentioned was her gifts and hopefully Tifa did not ask her to show her gifts as it had been quite a while since the last time she attempted a Morph to her Esperkin look. (( Tifa Lockhart )) |

Terra could not help but turn toward Tifa as she spoke about how cooking them into pies was a great idea but eating them plain was also a great idea. It was a little refreshing to have someone there that could understand her intentions. The compliment to the nature of the apples that they were picking made her nod in agreement. These apples reminded her of a few that she had seen before her world had gone through hell. ”Terra. My name is Terra.” She responded quickly and with an almost practiced tone to her introduction. It was as if she had been mentally running it through her mind over and over. Like she needed to do it just to maintain some semblance of memorization to the words. Moving to a tree that was closer between the two women Terra could not help but nod toward Tife acknowledging her as she moved. Finally placing herself in full view for the slightly taller woman Terra turned back to grabbing an apple off the tree. She had been mulling over the question about if this was her first festival or not and she knew the answer. Yet she had been trying to figure out the right way to say that it was. Mostly because iof this was a local Zephonian person then she did not want to insult them. Though getting over her apprehension she stood on her tiptoes and grabbed another apple and dropped it into her basket. “This is my first festival here. It is a welcome thing though. A rather simple reminder of home… Even if home is far away from here.” As she spoke she held another apple she had grabbed from the tree and looked down at it. She was purposely not saying many things as she had no idea that Tifa was not from here just like herself. (( Tifa Lockhart )) |

Provo was a town that she had only visited once or twice while she had initially travelled through Zephon. Though being back there she could not help but smile as she had begun to wander the town once again. Upon her travels into town she heard about a festival and it brought that smile wider than before. Partaking inside of something like that would be a great diversion and a way to make her mood lighten even more. In that moment she decided that it was a great thing to head in that direction. So that is what she would do. This small place outside of town was not what she would have expected to find and yet it felt almost homey. Not quite as at home as she felt beneath that home inside of Mobliz but still quite close to that feeling. Following the signs she found her way to an orchard and after paying the fee that she had to she found herself inside of a small patch. Gathering up the bucket after entering the patch she found herself beginning to wander through the area. Reaching up she poked and prodded a few of the apples before grabbing the first of many apples. It was after what Terra would feel was an hour when she heard the footfalls of another person. A person it seemed that would not allow the silence of the day to continue. Though it was not for the worse as the person did not seem to be bad. With a smile on her face she turned her head to the side to look over Tifa. “What am I going to make with these? Honestly I had not thought of it. I was more thinking about just eating a number of them as is. Though if I had to pick something to use it on I would love to bake a few pies…”With that spoken she could not help but lift up the basket and have that wide smile still plastered on her face.

The day had been going along as well as expected for Terra. It was a pleasant thing to be walking around in a town once more and she was lost in her own thoughts. This came to a sudden end as she rounded a corner and she suddenly ran into someone. As she impacted the person she felt herself beginning to tumble backwards. Yet before she was to tumble down onto the ground with a slightly hard thud she felt someone grab her wrist. This made her catch her breath and she let her mind recollect herself. Catching her feet beneath her she managed to get herself back onto her feet. Giving a slight tug as she was back on her feet she looked toward the person with whom she had ran into. “Thank you miss for catching me and I am sorry for running into you.” With the apology spoken up Terra could not help but take a step back and appraise the full height of the person in front of her. It was truly an imposing figure but then again she was not intimidated as she had been around Umaro for quite a while and he proved that height does not mean that someone was a monster. Though she spotted something that did catch her eye which was the ever so slight change to their ears compared to what she was normally used to seeing. Yet with that she did not break her demeanor and she smiled toward the elf. Dusting herself off with her left hand she could not help but speak up. ”I am Terra what is your name miss so I can give you a proper thank you?” (( Laurelin Hawthorne )) |

Days had come and days had gone away as Terra remained in her solitude. Many of her magical abilities had become twisted and warped while she had been living on Zephon. Mostly because of her own Esperkin nature than anything else. The months without magic to suddenly be back with magic flowing through her veins and her Esper side reemerging had taken much out of her. So much in fact that she had had to go into a solitary life for the last few years.
During this timetable she focused on relearning the magical energies that flowed through her. Thankfully after all this time she finally had control over the Esper within and all of the magical energies that were hers to command. With all of her control regained she found herself leaving the small camp that she had been living at. After taking a stop inside of a small town to get the excess hair cut she found herself back on the road to a familiar town. The town of Torenstein was her destination as this was the one place she could not help but return to the town she had once fought for without thoughts for her own safety.
Entering the town she was happy to just see how the town had changed since the last time she had been there. There was nothing on fire that wasn't supposed to be on fire and instead everything seemed to be going well. Pulling the blue cloak she received that day around herself she moved first to a salon. Something that she had been told by Edgar many years earlier stuck with her. Every once in a while you need to pamper yourself. Thankfully she had saved several lost people over the last few years in that patch of forest and had saved a decent amount of GP. So she got her hair trimmed up and headed to a place to get some new clothes. Which was her next stop and after doing that and getting something that fit her and was nearly identical to her original getup she headed out into the open air of the city.
A slight chill went through her as the chill of the air swirled around her. It was a welcoming breeze but she could not help but look around. There were fliers for some group known as the Dragonblades and another talking about helping out with other things. For her she did not have any idea how or what she would be doing, but for now she was happy to at least be free and walking around.
