🎶This is logic for the confused ones!🎶 The world seemed to spin, at least, that's what Glisteen thought. "What are we doing here?" Glisteen asked, after they had just gotten to the Niactarcta port. Glisteen looked around. The land was covered in ice, the buildings looked cruel, even the ports looked like a death trap. Everything about this place screamed to get out. Fast.
"Whatever they got us for." Telma answered in an accent similar to that of Hepas, but harsher. Glisteen thought that was weird. Telma and Smeko didn't seem at all bothered that they were in the worst country in all of Aethr.
She saw Thigil comforting Mictochra. Funny, she thought Mictochra was one of the toughest people Glisteen had ever met. Glisteen put a comforting hand on Yilasia, who she was standing next to. Yilasia was trembling.
"What-what's going to happen now?" Yilasia asked.
"We'll wait and see." Glisteen answered.
Sinlivbie, who had been invisible through the exchange, appeared by Glisteen. Sinlivbie shivered. "It's freezing out here." she complained. Glisteen nodded, Niactarcta was one of the coldest countries.
Hepas came around, passing out warm winter coats. When Glisteen put it on, she felt much better, where as before, she was cold. "Who's that?" Yilasia asked, pointing.
When Glisteen looked closer, she saw a thin woman, with a pinched face, and white hair. Glisteen guessed she was in her mid-sixties. She reminded her of Gilledmop. "Welcome!" the woman yelled. "Showda, how are you? And who are these dearies?" Glisteen immediately decided she didn't trust this woman.
Showda walked out on deck, and onto the port, where the woman was, "Talyah, how are you?" Showda said in a voice like silk.
"Very well, sister. Now, introduce me to these little cuties." Talyah replied. Glisteen felt like the Aethr had just shook.
Showda had a sister? Two Showdas! This just keeps getting better and better. Glisteen thought, sarcastically.
Showda turned around, gesturing to each in turn, "Introduce yourselves."
"Y-Yilasia."
"Sinlivbie."
"Raya."
The list went on and on. The new recruits, whose names Glisteen couldn't remember introduced themselves too, but Glisteen was hardly paying attention.
