Toddler Travels|Neo'anar, New Anarlina

[Skittlebug]

The orphanage was quite the boring place for a 2 year old accustomed to having the freedom to wander wherever she pleased. The young girl didn't care much for any of the other children, or the adults for that matter. She spent most of her time playing alone, avoiding the other kids, and throwing tantrums when things didn't go her way, until she was quieted by an adult of course.

This day, however, things are playing out a little differently. In her usual attempts to avoid the other children she has managed to find her way unnoticed to the exit. Now, peering about curiously with a wide grin, she's making her way outside. Excited at the freedom she's stumbled upon, she wanders more or less in the direction of the palace.

A young woman, on her way home from a service at the temple pauses when she sees the little girl apparently wandering around on her own. Concerned, she walks over and gives the child a warm smile. "Hello there, little one. And just where are you off to today?"

[Skittlebug]

The little girl pauses in her adventure to turn and wave a fist in the womans direction, babbling some baby talk, before continuing in direction she's chosen.

Concerned, the young woman hurries after the child, catching up to her. "Now now sweetheart, I don't think you should be wandering on your own. Where's your mummy or daddy?"

[Skittlebug]

The toddler rubs a fist against her face and turns back again with a little frown, "Nono daa."

She points back toward the pretty castle, "Go!"

"No daddy?" the woman asked, kneeling to be on the little girl's level. "Well where's your mummy, little one?" She looked towards were the child was pointing and shook her head. "Oh no, no little one. The place is no place for little girls."

[Skittlebug]

The word 'mummy' doesn't seem to trigger any recognition in the little girl. She waves her hand again eagerly, thinking that maybe the woman would come with her, carry her even.

"Gogo go!"
