A older sister huh? Just when Yunneth thought there were only two siblings. But why go to Bern just for their sister? If she is all the way in Bern then she must be on duty. If someone is on a job. You must leave them be. At least...that is what Yunneth feels at the very least. Though she felt what Helios feels. Yunneth's older brother was the only person who loved her to the point where he hired mercenaries to kill the cult in order to save her from being a offering. So what ever there reasons...she could understand. You never know when the one you love will be taken from you...a lesson Yunneth learned the hard and traumatizing way. Though looking at the picture made her sigh with a small hint of grief. Though Yunneth wasn't completely in touch with her feelings, she did love her brother very much and she misses him dearly. A reason why she really doesn't like to talk about family. Once Helios suggested heading back to the town, Yunneth nodded silently and made her way to the carriage and sat down. She places her head on the corner of the carriage where the entrance to the carriage is. She simply looked at the people bidding them farewell but then hides her face in her hood. She never was good with good byes...she never was. As she awaited departure, she wanted to get her mind off of things. Perhaps think about what she wants to do when they reach Bern. Should they see if they can get samples on the way? Should they get some information on the kingdom? There was much to discuss and much to think about. But not enough time. They will not reach Bern for another few days but still...in Yunneth's eyes that is not enough time. So for now...she feels it best to follow the lead of the two brothers she is accompanying...at least for now.

The moon had appeared along with the stars in the sky Helios was driving the carriage now and he hoped to make good time, Lloyd looked at Yunneth he wasnt sure what to say so he tried making idle talk" so Yunneth do you have any dreams or what i mean why are you traveling and all" Lloyd was a curios person wanting to learn more about people he never really knew anyone in the plains except his family and some of the people that came by to train with Helios

Once the moon was out, Yunneth took off her hood and looked at the night time sky. The way she looked made her seem like the type to match the darkness of night. A lot of on her mind tonight. It made her want to go out and paint the plains crimson for some reason. She didn't know why. Was it due to her affinity to the dark? Or...was it just childhood? Either way it was bothering her. Soon the silence is broken when Lloyd tries to make idle chat with her. Perhaps the boy was wanting to break this unbearable silence. After a moment, she began to think about the questions. She thinks and gives a soft sigh and looks at the young mage.
"...Dreams...no. I don't. I have a goal but...it isn't a dream. I...I do not believe in dreams. I had them but...that person who believed in them is dead. And as for my reason for traveling Elibe is simple. I wish to know what this land holds for knowledge's sake. You are a mage, yes? So you should know what I am talking about. Mages and Shaman are a like. Unlike monks...people of our trade appreciate a good journey for knowledge. I simply wish to find out what I can in this life time. And if I decide to marry and have children, I wish for them to follow in my foot steps and continue my work when I can no longer travel. But before then...if I can discover much here before age gets the better of me, I wish to leave Elibe so I can perhaps see the other lands that elude us. Perhaps they are much like ours in a way. But...I will not find out just yet. That is both my reason and my goal. It is not a dream. Is that all you wish to know?"
the way she looked at him was like staring at a puppet. Emotionless and emptiness. The pale coloring in her face made it much more depressing and sad. She looked at Lloyd and await any further questions.

Lloyd hadn't been expecting that kind of answer but still he was intrigued he had looked at a majority of his mothers texts book that spoke of ancient wars and dragons Lloyd then got a idea" hey do you think there are dragons i don't mean wyverns i mean full sized terrors of the sky that could destroy a kingdom in minutes that's what I intend to find on this journey" Lloyd always tried staying optimistic about things when it came to talking about the world he would always get excited. Lloyd showed Yunneth a book he brought" this book talks about things called Manaketes they look like people but can turn into dragons i don't know if there really but if they are think about how amazing it be to meet one"

Once Lloyd stopped asking questions for a moment, she was relieved. Hopes a d dreams...such things were never taught to her. And it was already too late to learn about such trivial things such as "dreams". When Lloyd continued to talk, Yunneth was wondering what he would say this time. This time...something a little more Yunneth could talk about. Theory and myths. When he described the dragons he was thinking of, Yunneth began to think.
"...Let me be honest. So far...I do not believe in Manaketes. I am the type to believe things I see. But I do admit...I feel there may be truth to the legends. Especially the Scourging. I read about that and I must say...I am not completely convinced. But...I truly think there could be truth in the legends. Perhaps I can find answers while in Bern..."
When he showed her the book, she took the book and flipped through the pages and looked at a few. She then gave him the book back.
"...When you meet one...what then? If that child like mind of yours can remember, humans forced the dragons out of this world and into another. This was there home. A home our ancestors took from them. Think about it...what dragon would possibly want to treat us kindly? I swear...that optimism is going to kill you one day..."
She didn't mean it to sound cold and harsh yet she felt it needed to be said. Fools die that way. They do not consider the possibilities. And soon death comes for them and tears both body and soul apart. She hated how most people do not consider these possibilities. It was annoying in a way...yet it was human nature in most people...so...she really couldn't blame them though it wouldn't hurt to think about it.

Lloyd simply chuckled he had heard the same kind of things from his parents but it didn't matter to him he understood Yunneths reasoning but Lloyd wanted to show the world one day that not all dragons are bad or monsters Lloyd then noticed they were getting closer to Bern he was excited he might find a Manaketes while he was there he still had no idea what layed ahead of him and his ally's but all he could tell was a great journey would soon begin
