Timestamp: Fall 10, 515 AV
Fall had just begun. It was like the sprouting of a new flower. But it didn't smell like the sprouting of new flowers, at least, not as far as Kailey was concerned. There wasn't quite a chill within the air, or at least, not the sort of chill she remembered having occurred in her previous year of life. In fact, it was still pretty hot and felt a lot like summer to her. The world just hadn't reached its hand far enough into the autumnal season, at least, not as of yet. The grass was still green, swaying softly within a breeze, and the sun still floated high within a bed of pale blue, as there was hardly a cloud within sight. The air was fairly sticky, but not as intensely, she felt, as it had been during various portions of the summer season. In fact, in that regard, it was quite nice. But all the same, there was little to be done that day, so she simply spent it out within the city- discovering the sorts of plants that there were to be discovered. Or rather, discovering that there seemed to be nothing more than grass, although she could smell there being something more than the grass present. Which of course, could have been the food that people hoarded, and didn't share with her.
Which sucked, because she really liked food, especially when it consisted of vegetation type qualities. She sniffed the air again, and moved right around a section of tents. Kailey smiled as she skipped along, her dress whipping around her ankles. Her eyes taking in her surroundings, as she considered looking for something else to do. As searching for food didn't seem as though it were being even a little bit fruitful. (No pun intended). But she didn't know what else to do- as all the drykas seemed busy with their own tasks, and she had noticed that none of them really seemed like they liked being interrupted when they did those tasks, which wasn't much fun, as it made her feel even more alone while in this largely unfamiliar city. But what was she to do? Maybe she could find someone who seemed more approachable than the others, and someone, with which she could share a bite to eat, 'cuz her stomach was rumbling something fierce. .
