Heya!

[Aerith had seen the oddly dressed girl from across the way and her heart had gone out to her. So many people walked passed until they were giving her a wide berth. But not her! She moseyed on up just in time to watch her stamp her foot and ask her question to the world at large.]

I think they have their own worries and concerns, they find it hard to take on those of others. But I'll listen.

Firstly you're here, in Midgar. As for how you get home, I'm not sure where your home is. Where are you from?

[The woman makes Rydia jump in surprise at having been acknowledged while everyone else around her just ignored her, but she composes herself just as quickly, giving a sad smile as the woman talks.

So this place is called Midgar? She's definitely never heard of it, but at least it has a name now.]

I'm from a village called Mist, but I've never heard of Midgar. The last place I was is called the Feymarch, and then I suddenly showed up here once I tried to return to the Underworld to go home.

[Had Leviathan, or even Bahamut, sent her somewhere else for a reason he didn't want her to know?]

[ancientflower]

[Oh no, she scared her! Aerith hadn't meant to do that, she tried to smile as disarmingly as she could. And then again in sympathy while shaking her head.]

I don't recognise any of those names. [Though that wasn't saying much. Aerith didn't get out that often. If at all.]

The Underworld? No, I think you might be far from home. I'm so sorry. I wonder how you got here though?

[survivorofmist]

[That's just what Rydia's afraid of, that no one knows where the places she's called home are. The smile though, helped somewhat. At least there was sympathy unlike the annoyance others showed.]

I... See. I don't have any clue how. The last time I woke up somewhere I didn't know was when His Majesty Leviathan took me from the surface to the Feymarch when I was a child.

[Then, a thought occurs, because the Feymarch wasn't technically part of the world she knows, it existed in a different place. Maybe, just maybe, it connects to other worlds as well.]

What is the name of this planet?

[ancientflower]

Gaea.

[Aerith replied warmly and kindly. She'd straightened by, hands held behind her back, and moved a few steps so that she was standing in front of the girl.]

This planet is Gaea.

This... isn't where you belong, is it? Do you have anywhere to go? I can take you home with me for now, if you'd like? Until you can find your way?
