Ary clicked his tongue twice and held onto his reins tightly as Rigyry sped up to cover the distance between them. Ary couldn’t be sure, but it seemed like the white chocobo was the slower of the two. With their rarity and elusiveness Ary would have assumed that the whites were faster.
As he came up alongside the woman he called over to her, genuinely interested in just who she was, “Hail. Don’t see many travelers on foot or claw these days. If I might ask, who are you traveler and from where do you come?”

~Tilanya~
Tilanya hadn't expected to see anyone else on her journey either, and most certainly didn't expect anyone to actually converse with her. She wasn't much for pleasant conversations, but she was also curious as to this warriors presence, though she guessed he sought employment from the upcoming festival. And that she could use to her advantage.
"Hail and well met traveler, my name is Tilanya. I hail from the village Myst, and I would now ask the same of you." She replied, keeping her mount at a comfortable pace. She took in his appearance, as well as the chocobo he rode. It seemed like a very capable steed, muscle in all the right places with little to no fat. He cared for it, better than some stables do in certain places.

She couldn't remember the last time she had been in these walls. "I cant wait until tomorrow." Rydia looked at Cecil and with a blush on her face she asked, "Is Edge going to be here?"

~Cecil/Rosa~
"Yes, Edge is supposed to be here tomorrow, though I wouldn't be surprised to see him here later today." Cecil replied, a slight smirk growing on the king's face. "You know, he was rather sad you didn't make it last year, he'll be overjoyed to see you again, as we all are." He said, just before opening the door to his private room to find Rosa sitting before the large mirror preparing her hair, her back to the two. "You'll never guess who's here." Cecil said, his voice holding a bit of playfulness to it.
"Tell Edge that I'll see him once I'm done with my duties." She responded, not even batting an eyelash as she fussed with her long golden locks. She truthfully didn't have very many royal duties, especially with the festival upon them, but she considered her hair and appearance a royal duty in and of itself.
"Turn around love." Cecil responded, and when she caught sight of Rydia her expression, a mixture of shock and elation, made the king laugh in spite of himself. She however didn't seem to pay him attention, and leaped from her seat to embrace Rydia in a great big hug.
"I'm so happy to see you Rydia!" She said as the hug continued, her mind at a loss for just about anything else.
