[b]The snow came down in a Storm, creating a strong blizzard that swept through the streets.
Yet, the laughter of children rang through the village, drawing those near.
In the village Plaza, no snow had touched the ground and it felt extremely warm in the area.
In the middle of the plaza sat a woman, smiling no tomorrow with a number of children around her.
A small blue flame, in the shape of a butterfly escaped her fingers and the children screamed, chasing it around.
The woman smiled, and simply watched.
Some would remember the now old woman, others would not.
This was Nora. Mother of Olivia And Nathaniel. [/b]

Nora? [b]The Arbiter called from the gates.[/b] Nora! By the Gods of Sanghelios, it is you! [b]He jumps down and runs to embrace her in a hug.[/b]
-
[b]Nora got to her feet, hugging him [/b] "Arbiter! It's good to see you again!"
-
Likewise. So, are you here to stay or just visiting for the holidays?
-
"I'm actually just visiting for today." [b]She took a step back, and upon closer inspection Arbiter could clearer see that she was fairly older. And it seemed as though years have passed since the last time he saw her [/b]
-
"Nice trick. How exactly did you do that?" [b]Fortis walks up, looking quite perplexed for once.[/b]
-
[b]She looked up at Fortis, smiling. [/b] "I've been practicing Pyromancy for twenty years now. Quite easy actually."
-
"I have never had a strong hold on magic, how do you do it?"
-
"I just have a skill."

-
[b]Nora looked up, smiling at Sketch[/b] "Oh my goodness, Wolfy!" [b]She bolted towards Sketch, embracing him in a hug [/b]
-
Edited by Skatch142: 12/7/2016 2:13:55 AM"Ack! I'm Sketch!" *Boy 1 "Daddy, who's this?" *Boy 2 "Ooo, she's a magic lady!"
-
[b]She stepped back, smiling at Sketch [/b] "No you're Wolfy! Don't you Remember? I always called it Wolfy...." [b]Now that she stood so near, merely steps away one could realize the toll the years have had. She was visibly older, looking like a proper parent. [/b] "OH I don't remember, that must've been what? Nineteen years ago?"

Edited by Skatch142: 12/7/2016 2:20:20 AM"I... Maybe you called me that... I find it hard to believe I didn't complain... Maya was the only one allowed to call me her kitten." *Boy 2 "Who's Maya?" "Just someone I knew, Yerin. A good friend but, well, I don't know what happened to them." *His ears tilt back, looking sad.*
-
"I remember Maya...." [b]She lost a smile for a moment before immediately going back to her smile [/b] "So who's this little guy?" [b]She crouched down, looking Yerin up and down [/b]
-
*Yerin "I'm Yerin! Sketch is my dad, old lady!" *He says happily.* "Yerin, her name is Nora." *Yerin "Okay... Sorry dad..." *The other boy walks up to her as well.* *Boy 1 "I'm Luka! Sketch is my dad too!"
-
"Sketch! I never took you for the father type!" [b]She laughed [/b] "Hey kids want to see something cool?" [b]She covered her face with her hands and slowly lowered her hands. As she did, she whistled and a beautiful blue fire bird formed on her hands [/b] "Look at this little guy!"
-
Edited by Skatch142: 12/7/2016 2:31:32 AM"Heh, well I always wanted to have kids. And apparently my hope wasn't lost when I was stuck here after all. Of course, I would probably be a terrible father without the help of Leyla." *Yerin "WHOA!!!" *Luka "That's awesome!!!" *Sapphire just stands back, clueless as to what's happening.*
-
[b]Nora smiles, looking up at Sapphire [/b] "You haven't said anything. What's wrong? Sketch?"
-
*Li'l S crawls out of her pocket, growing to the size of Luka and writing something on his chest in Sphirinian.* [u]Oh, I'm deaf.[/u]
-
"Oh." [b]Nora looks at Sketch [/b] "So how do you communicate with her? Did you learn sign language?"
-
*He motions to Li'l S.* "He communicates everything we say to her by writing it in Sphirinian on his chest. Long story short, there used to be a bigger version of him who accidentally caused her eardrums to, uh." *He looks at Luka and Yerin.* "[i]Stop working[/i]... Well, he was a close friend and he felt extremely guilty so he followed her around translating for her. Well, he's [i]gone[/i] now... For good... But he left this smaller version of himself. He was literally made directly from a portion of his own mass, before he... [i]left[/i]. So I like to think somewhere in there he's still alive- I mean, [i]here[/i], with his memories and everything... Sadly as far as we know he's mute and only really translates for her..."
-
[b]Nora looked at Sapphire and smiled [/b] "Do you remember me?"
-
*Her ears tilt back a little and she shakes her head.* "Sapphire, it's Nora." *She reads what he said her eyes brightening as she smiles.* [u]IT'S BEEN SO LONG!!![/u] *She wraps her arms around Nora in a tight hug.*
-
"Oh dear." [b]Nora hugs Sapphire right back, smiling happily [/b]
-
*She continues hugging Nora, definitely something unusual for her. But she was the one who cam up with Sapphire, after all.*
