It couldnt answer but its tail flicked kindly as it looked up at you
"Hmm, is there something I should know, perhaps? Something you'd like to show or tell me?" Astraeus says, crossing her arms and regarding the cat carefully.

The last thing you remember seeing was a bright light, golden and warm, like a soft comforting light that seemed to Numb your mind. However wen you opened your eyes the world was not how you remembered it, no elaborate buildings, no flashing lights or any of that. Instead what surrounded you was a wasteland of what used to be your home.... one of the seven kingdoms in Rodina....
You could hear the birds and other animals around you, just barely over your splitting headache. Your clothes were tattered and dirty as you examined yourself but you seemed perfectly healthy..... with no other living beings in sight
Arico blinked, sitting up and crossing her legs so her skin touched, dress placed over the top as it fluttered from her movements. She touched her temple with the back of her hand, trying to make sense of what was happening. Her head hurt and her hands felt a normal temperature. She frowned as she pushed herself up into a standing position, pressing her hand against the waste hurt, but she ignored it. Arico blinked again, trying to adjust and she dusted off the bottom of her dress with a gulp, fingering the silver chained necklace. Her ringlet bounced onto her shoulders as she investigated her surroundings.
Taking in a deep breathe, Arico cupped her hands to her mouth and let out an animal call. She wished for a reply to say she was not alone. Where was her brother?

only a few birds flew off at the sound of your call all else was quiet. A few rocks hit the ground beside you causing you to look up, you were at the gate, the harpy sculpture at its peak which once stood tall and proud was breaking apart bits and pieces of it laying on the stone path that entered the kingdom.
Name: Karen
Image: I can't find a good one! I might have to draw this.
Alright! I drew her. A symbolic rough sketch which isn't really helpful but eh!
Description: quiet most of the time, is rather polite. Pretty tall I guess, 5ft 7in. Strong jawline, but not particularly angled. Ectomorphic build. Will eat the pantry clean and still not put on weight. Slightly haunched over while standing. Slouches a ton when sitting. Heart shaped face. Average nose and cheekbones. Larger hands and longer limbs.
Age/Gender: 27, Female
Previous Kingdom: Tantu
Backstory: Karen: She was raised by a mother, who she never saw often, for her mother spent most of her time at sea. Karen was deemed unfit and too young for dealing with the sailors. At 7, she joined the crew, and ran small errands on board, helping in the kitchen. And when the ship set anchor, gave her musical talents around the campfire. At 13, the kingdom of Tantu went to war, and although they have the best of the best military, aid was called from the civilians. Her mother died in war, and she injured early on, was sent home. She has no home though, for her mother is dead, and the men of the crew are at war, all doomed to die. She ran away and spent time alone, traveling the world, and returned to Tantu in a time of peace. At 16, she was adopted has a younger sister, and spent the rest of her teenage years in peace. At 21, she left home to travel, and sailed the seas for some time. But painful memories bubbled up, and she returned to the land. :Karen
Likes: The sea, the sky, marine biology, running, trees, stars, sleeping, cooking is a hobby!

Other: She fears losing people who she's become close to. This includes her adopted older sister, and her adopted mother. She is made slightly uncomfortable my anything that has more than 4 limbs. Except dragons and gryphons, and hippogriffs and things like that. 4+ limbs, like octopuses, spiders, ants, beetles, you get the jest of it. And oh yeah, she adamantly believes that the kraken exists.
alright! I edited it and drew a quick thingy
