Maya’s excitement increased for a moment when she spotted movement at the top of the tree, at first thinking yet another creature, maybe a Wyvern or something, had found itself a home atop the evergreen and was a bit startled by the Tower chomping away at its hideout. Maya’s excitement very quickly turned to confusion, however, as the being in the tree branches turned out to be… another human? Somehow? She’d never seen one climb a tree so well. 

The young woman grew a bit nervous, too, as the mysterious man descended from the top of the tree with seemingly equal ease, then approached her without hesitation, asking for food. “W-well, um…” she stuttered. Maya never really knew how to deal with these types. As much as the lighthearted girl didn’t want to see anyone starve, she knew that her own family, while not exactly struggling to survive, still didn’t have a ton of food to just give away. Also, this man’s (or at least she thought it was a man?) wild appearance didn’t help. Despite her enthusiasm around Draconides, she was still sometimes a bit shy around other people. “I… don’t know, if I have any food to offer.” She answered awkwardly, backing away from Auri. “Are you… are you from Sorenaye?” she asked, not knowing whether this stranger was part of her own kingdom or someone who’d just wandered out of the wilderness. “If not, should I take you to my village?” As much as she wanted to keep observing the Tower, she couldn’t just ignore the man – and she certainly didn’t want to leave him out in the wild.
