Surprised Girl · Babbles

Left?

The road is already out. Turn around already!

I didn't expect a place like this in Cloudrest Woods.

Do you often run into strangers who lost their way?

Hey, I'm right at home. How is that strange?

Heheh. Everyone who sees my home literally loves the scenery!

Afraid? Why should I be? Everyone who lost their way is nice to me!

Everyone calls me Babbles. You can call me that too!

Yeah. There was a super nice guy with silver hair who couldn't find his way out.

He also brought me some warm rice cakes. Like, super fast! From the best store in the city! You should try them out too!

But his name is very odd. He's called ... Arda ... Ardashir, I think?

What a weird name.

Hmm... He sat on the porch with me, and we counted some petals.

Oh yeah, he also told me a ton of wonderful stories from his own experiences!

Heheh. The stories are about himself and his two companions! My favorite's the one where they went to the "Cosmic Gate" and then —

Hmm...

I almost forgot. He gave me rice cakes to eat after I promised him to keep the stories secret!

When he got up to leave, he wanted to take me around and explore the world. But I don't wanna leave my home...

Before Pa and Ma left, this place is where my family lived.

Yeah. They passed away repairing the Marker Stone...

But that was a long, long time ago. Plenty of people come around to help me out, so there's no need to worry!

Yeah, every time I meet a new friend, I just can't stop babbling on and on...

Anyways, I'm really glad to see you!
