my eyes can see the death of everything even if that thing is god "Ah! As expected of the Green District, the air here is really clean! Perhaps I should bring Grainne here sometime. The poor girl is always stuck in that stuffy house of ours; some fresh air could do her wonders." Admiring the scenic view and natural beauty of the Green District, Fiona sightseeing was suddenly interrupted by one of her servants shouting. "Mistress Fiona! Mistress Fiona where are you! It's dangerous to wander alone! Mistress Fiona!" A rather large man wearing chainmail, with a large zweihander on his back was shouting for Fiona's return. It was apparent that the man was her bodyguard, and that she had sort of abandoned him. "Ara…" Guess that's my que to split. Though maybe if I had some more conspicuous clothing; I kind of do stand out like a sore thumb. It wasn't too difficult to see that Fiona was from the Blue district. Her clothing had a certain sense of luxury that was often found in the Blue district. Not only that, Fiona has lived a rather pampered life; even if she does do her own sort of work as head of the O'Kearney family, the people of the Green District toil at the fields and took care of the various plants and vegetation that the green is famous for. To the folks of the Green District, Fiona probably looks like she has never worked a day in her life. "Excuse me," Fiona said to a Green District citizen, wearing a large green cloak, who was passing by. "Hmm?" Pulling out a large sack of gold from a magic bag, Fiona politely asked, "Could I purchase that cloak from you?" The citizen could only stare in awe, as his eyes widened, at the sum of money that Fiona offered him; it was likely many times more than what his old dusty cloak was worth. "O-o-okay," stuttering, the Green District citizen took off his cloak and handed it to Fiona who handed him the gold in return. As Fiona put on the cloak and left in a hurry, the citizen could only mutter to himself, "Perhaps I should try getting more Blue District customers…" "Mistress Fiona! Mistress Fiona!" Her bodyguard's cries got softer and softer as Fiona walked away. Eventually she came upon a rundown farm. Unaware if anyone still lived on the premises and a bit piqued with curiosity, Fiona stepped onto the premises. If I recall, about a year ago, there was a raid in the Green District. Did they ever discover who caused the raid? Looking around, it was obvious that the farm was still suffering from the raid. "The soil is probably still fertile as well," Fiona muttered to herself as she picked up some soil from the ground, letting it fall through her fingers. Fiona could only feel dissatisfied as she imagined the state of the farm from before the raid. What a waste, the land here could be put to good use. We are having a bit of an economic crisis right now; with the blockade we are simply living off our surplus. Did no one decide to take up this farm after the raid? Were its owners killed with no one to inherit? There is a lot of work to be done sure, but with a bit of manpower, it wouldn't be impossible for this farm to start running again.

[Tivona]

Tivona had been out all morning. She was attempting to prepare the land for cultivation, but such a young girl couldn't hope to do it all herself. When the raid had happened, her crops had been trampled and stolen and though she decided to take on the challenge of recreating the farm to what it had been when the older couple had still been alive, she was beginning to doubt her ability. She only had two cows, able to purchase the young calf not too long ago and the field just didn't want to twist to her way. It seemed to be fighting her at every turn. The couple had taught her many things about sowing the field, plating vegetables and raising the crops, but she was having a hard time doing it. She only had three lines of crops that stretched out and even those had taken just over a week to complete. She was sitting on a vast piece of land, acres and acres for miles. It would take her the whole year to cultivate the entire thing, and by then, she wouldn't have time to grow any crops. Even though she knew that, she also knew that she had to try.

She had planted potatoes in the first line, carrots in the second line and was slowly working on tomatoes, when she saw a figure at the end on her land, closer to her house. She narrowed her eyes, trying to see the figure more, but it was cloaked. She bent down, took out her stiletto sword and began to army crawl towards the person in the distance. She wouldn't let this land die if this was another raid. She was stronger now than she had been, secretly keeping up her training in the art of assassination. She was ready for the next raid, ready to kill all of those who opposed her Green Princess. She ust hoped that when the time came, those bandits who had killed the people who had taken her in, she only hoped that they were the ones who would show their faces. She vowed to kill every last one of them.

As she got closer, she felt her head tilt slightly and she looked the figure up and down. Though cloaked and hooded, she could tell it was a female. Tivona's eyes looked up to the sky. It was a decently hot day out, yet the female before her was in such a heavy hood. Perhaps she was hiding. With a small sigh, she sheathed her sword and called out in a welcoming voice. "Hello there!" As she walked up closer, her hand waving and a wide smile placed on her face, she called out again. "Is there anything I can help you with?" She really wished that she hadn't been working so hard as she was covered nearly head to toe in mud and sweat. Not really the greatest thing for a first impression, but she also supposed that it would she that she was trying to work hard. She wasn't really the person to worry over such matters much anyways so she would just keep smiling until she figured out who this person was, and if they were hiding, the reason behind it.

my eyes can see the death of everything even if that thing is god "Ara?" Turning her attention to what appears to be the farm's caretaker, Fiona noticed young woman covered in mud and sweat. So the farm isn't abandoned? Well I guess if there is only one person taking care of it then it makes sense why it is in such bad shape, especially if you consider the raid. Though this may play out to my advantage. "Ah my apologies, I wasn't aware that someone was still living here. Please forgive my intrusion." She's armed too; I should take care. Quickly noting the weapon the woman carried, Fiona quickly took a look to make sure there wasn't anyone else she had missed. "Are you this farm's owner? It seems you are still recovering from that raid last year. Do you need any help? Ah! How rude of me; I forgot to introduce myself. Fiona began taking of her hood but— "Mistress Fiona! Mistress Fiona!" Shit! I thought I lost him! Immediately upon hearing the bodyguard that she had ditched earlier, Fiona immediately pulled her hood back down. A panicked look appeared on her face as she suddenly moved closer to the caretaker. "Ah pardon me but could we perhaps take this discussion inside? I am starting to feel a bit warm under this cloak." Making a rather obvious excuse, Fiona tried to nudge the woman towards the farm house, not wanting her bodyguard to discover her—always finding them rather useless, sometimes even detrimental, during negotiations. One time, she lost a business deal because her bodyguard threatened a client because he didn't feel like they were giving Fiona the proper respect. Obviously Fiona immediately fired said bodyguard, but nevertheless, she would rather not have them around during negotiations with potential clients. WORDS. 288 NOTES. --- TAGS. Tivona

Tivona gave the girl a wide smile as she turned to face her. "It's alright, really! I don't get many visitors, so when I do, I'm always happy to see them!" Her voice was filled with happiness as she watched the stranger, but her smile soon fell and her look turned into curiosity as she watched the girl before her take note of something. Her blue eyes glanced down to where the girl's had been, and her eyes widened slightly as she looked back up, preparing to defend herself from the thoughts of the girl, as the weapon laid at her side. She wondered what the girl thought of her weapon. Did she think that she meant to attack? She watched the girl take in the farm, probably to make sure that the two were alone. She had to smirk slightly with a small tilt of her head, and wonder if perhaps this girl could be like her, a trained and deadly assassin.

Tivona giggled softly as she heard the stranger speak, waiting patiently for her hood to lower, but as a man's voice called out in the distance, she knew that it was no coincidence that this girl had hooded herself again. So, hiding it was, then. She smiled and grabbed hold of the girl's hand and began sprinting towards her home. Once they reached, she opened the door and rushed the girl inside. If that man also thought that this place was abandoned, he may want to check inside. She bit on her lip as she looked at the bucket of fresh vegetables and the fire shifting in the hearth. She took a deep breath and grabbed a pail of water, splashing it on the fire. She grabbed the bucket, along with some of the other things that may make it apparent that someone lived in the home and quietly motioned the girl to follow her as she opened up a hidden hatch in the floor. "We'll hide in the cellar until he's gone. As long as he doesn't hear the Crag cows, we should be okay. I'm Tivona, by the way. It's nice to meet you, Fiona." She gave the girl a side wide grin, her eyes sparkling in the light shining through the window as she waited for Fiona to follow her.
