The Kitan, Aurelia and Marcella
Marcella's eyes lit up, an island like here, similar people but most of all, a trip with Aurelia was heaven to her ears. "Y-yes! I think that'd be a great idea. I'm sure we could find the time to do so." Whether they would be carried aboard Marcella's own boat the Hoshi or aboard a vessel of Aurelia's choosing, well that'd be another matter for later for now it just sounded like a fine adventure. Staring at the beautiful woman before her, by the grace of the Goddesses and Gods of Kyrenaia combined she was just lovely.

"Oh yeah! Probably for the best that we head out of here." Lucy nodded in agreement holding down on her sunhat with the breeze sweeping into the cave and the splash of the mist they walked on out of the cave again, her boyfriend's hand in hers and taking the other's hand as she so nicely offered to help her along. Maybe sandals weren't the best choice? Oh well. "Horses? Wow! That's cool! Just like a vet or are you a horse rancher?"
Corona
"Oh brave, Knight." She giggled "Well now that you mention it, I have somewhere outside the village I need to be for a bit, so do guide me to safety through the untamed wilderness." Of course the worse you might get on Corona was a snake bite. It wouldn't kill you but it would hurt but still, if it was truly filled with savage beasts, she'd be in good hands here. She pointed off down the jungle path, which would take them to another nearby village, smaller than Kino but that'd be fine, a horse like this would probably cause a bit of trouble on the more crowded port town plus Ayla had been planning this visit. Wrapping her arms around him a little tighter she leaned in closer "So Brave Knight, let's head onward!"
The Kitan Baths
"Ahaha yeah I suppose the heat can get to you if not careful, so it was a good pleasure to talk with you. Honestly we got a few more in us before we should get going too. But enjoy the festival."
"Mhmhm. Stay dry too." Rikka cautioned
"Rikka, I don't think it's raining."
"Yet."
"Fair enough. Yup stay dry out there."
The two waved them goodbye. The young attendant had poked into the room "All finished ladies?" She asked of them "We hope it was to your liking."
"Mmm" She thought a moment "Ya know, I do have a pregnant client in a village just outside Aurora. Not too far so not much of a concern but why not tag along with us. Get to see a little off the path but stick close to home. Whaddya say? Interested?"
"You should come" Shino nodded "It's smaller but it's nice. Mama won't let ya get lost or nothin"
"Ahaha don't worry about getting lost, it's a straight shot from here, not even a half-hour-walk and a well marked path."
Kino
"That is up to the bride and groom to be, or brides to be, or grooms to be, well ya get it. Not many do it during the ceremony itself, more afterward. Simple pan flutes are very common here but we also have lutes, the good old voice of anyone who has the singing. The first wedding I did as an Apprentice there was a droning chant by the ladies at the behest of the two brides to be. Actually maybe you heard of them, they used to be Corona's Senators to Congress. Now retired but they sure did enjoy it. the wedding I mean. You sure do have a lot of questions, ya sure a wedding isn't in yer near future?" she teased but who knows maybe the two were meant to be together. "Sunplena, you know, she's a very beautiful woman and devoted mother." she winked at him well this would at least be an interesting first date.
Hoshino
"Yup. I sure do hope folks take it to heart. This place is a paradise as far as i'm concerned. We all gotta keep it that way. Folks wanna come see us, well I welcome them but I want them to make sure they respect how beautiful and fragile our islands are. Well seeing as ya folks be wanting a great taste of our fish delights, you wanna make the trek down and go try some? I'm pretty much finished here."
"Ah yes, you are with child! Many congratulations to you and I wish all the blessings on you." Motherhood, something certainly Satou thought of. Knowing her later mother and grandmother working so hard and giving so much love to her, Satou could only hope to be as good as they were. Tess, she felt might feel the same about being a mom, but in good time, in good time. Right now they were still kind of settling into their marriage, splitting time between Mervay and AHSCA.
Tsubaki
"Really? You don't have to do that at all."
The older daughter delivered the bill with her younger sister at her side. "I hope everything was to your satisfaction!"
