Aquarina's Arduous Training

-----

It has been two exact weeks since Aquarina and her parents reached the Dry Steppes, where the Everstone Village was located. The people here were warm and nice, the weather was incredibly warm and dry, and… Well, yeah, both things didn't meld well together for someone like Aquarina, who liked her personal space. Unless it was Sylphy whom she was sharing it with.

The Everstone people was overly friendly, and by overly she meant truly overly friendly! They would constantly greet her; every single person would greet her whenever she went. They would also go out of their way to bring her food or gifts anywhere.

Children would come to her and gift her pretty flowers and pebbles, and several boys had already confessed they liked her, Aquarina had to reject seven boys in these two weeks, their ability to express their emotions was very open, if they ever had a crush, they would just confess immediately.
