Description Woah hello you two, don't mind me blowing the dust off your heads.

This must be the time of year where I take all of my characters back out of the shed and try to do something with them, it seems.

I dunno what initiated this idea, but I know part of it was because both Marie and Arezo have really had no true background development of any sort, so what better than to throw them together in a story arc?

Rezzo has changed a lot from where she started but she still holds her element handling ability, just at a more smaller scale and uses it for show in a travelling caravan with other manipulators and they just put on little spectacles and whatnot. And Marie has always been told what to do and kept indoors because of her schizophrenic conditions but she still wants to be treated normally and is tired of the stuck up rich people her mother has watch over her while she works for the government.

So one day Arezo's caravan comes into town (which is like, the royal city or whatevs so it's a big dealio) and Marie decides to take her out to see it for just some fresh air and whatnot because she's always cooped up inside. And Marie is mesmerized with what Rez and the others can do and envies them.

Marie has a tendency to sneak out a lot when her mother's working and the caretakers don't bother checking up on her, usually to hang around the stables or walk around the block, but this time she finds herself back at the caravan as they're packing up ready to move on to the next town and she happens across Rezzo who's still a buttface but doesn't push her to the side. Rez realizes there's something wrong with the kid and tells her she should get back home, but later as they're outside of the city she discovers Marie decided to stow away and follow along instead.

Unsure of what to do (or aware of the nobility the crazy child has in town) the others decide she can tag along to see how it works and Rez is put in charge of her. Since Rez is such an introvert herself, she's not sure really how to approach the teen and isn't aware of her condition either, so she's at loss of what to do but eventually adventures ensue and they learn the true power of friendship while the royal guards are on their asses to get Marie back! Hooray!



So yeah, I doubt I'll do much with the story now but maybe it'll be a potential nano later in the year (or over summer) along with Archibald and the rest of DoD! So many story ideas, so little time...

I'M SO LATE AT COMMENTING BUT I DON'T EVEN CARE
They both look even more adorable than before 8'U Especially Marie in her cute long sleeved shirt. Don't get too close to that fire, girl, you're gonna singe your fur and then you'll smell!
I love the highlights on this with the fire light. It looks so warm and cozy, even if they are outside around a bunch of smelly animal thingies.

Also I really like that log Rez is sitting on. That is a great log. I will name it Jeffrey.

HI THAR REZ~ Aw yay I'm so glad to see you're doing more with these two. c: A traveling caravan seems like a great place for Arezo to end up of her own choice. And then Marie shows up and hilarity and drama ensues, oh goody.
You did a good job with the soft lighting here. Everything in the shadows seems properly indistinct and your eye is drawn to the fire just like with a real campfire. And speaking of shadows, what are those winged background critters?

Haha yeah, I figured with her abilities a travelling caravan would be in her forte.

Thanks, I'm glad it worked! The winged creatures are called evimeroit (I forget their spelling pfff) they're found all over Iedenfera and usually the fastest way to get around since they don't have fancy cars or planes. You can see a few in my old RoA stuff I'm positive XD
