Soraka rubs the horn on her head.
"Well I have got this protruding from my skull. Also my skin is purple and my shins are fuzzy. I also have hooves instead of feet. When I was in my grove humans would profess their love to me the moment they saw me. They would beg me to marry them."
She chuckled and finished putting her hair back up.
"But those days are long in the past."
She then stands and walks to her stove. She bends down and pulls out an assortment of pans from the drawer next to the stove.

"Oh... Well, I think you are beautiful. Though, I rarely pay attention to the physical features of people. For me, their beauty lies in how they interact with the strings. Whether you know it or not, you make many changes, you act more than you react. You pull the strings far more often than you are pulled, and you both pull and are pulled by more strings than most." She spoke as she began to remove the blankets from her mattress, putting them in a small pile

Soraka smiles again at this.
"You are indeed different than most humans. Most of them only care for the physical appearance of someone, not their actions. The summoners even made a skin to try and replicate what I used to look like, they named it Divine Soraka."
Orion then starts scratching at the door madly and meowing complaints. The Starchild then puts the pans she took out on the stove and lets the cat in. He runs to her and stretches up her leg, continuing his meowing assault.
"Yes I know you are hungry too."
She walks to a cabinet and pulls out a bag of kibble, then to another and pulls out a bowl. She then opens the bag and pours the kibble in. This sends Orion into a frenzy, making him run in circles and double his meowing. She sets it down and he pounces on the bowl, spilling some kibble on the floor. His meowing ceases and is replaced by loud cracking as he destroys the kibble.

"Yes, many of my fellows seem to enjoy pointing out my differences. You seemed not to notice, though. It was nice to speak to someone without them questioning my sanity. Then again, yesterday and this morning have been relatively ordered for me." She finished removing the blankets and moved the mattress back over near Soraka's bed, then put it back in the small stack under it.

She nods at this.
"Well, I don't question people unless the go off killing others. I don't see anything wrong with you. Is there anything you would prefer to eat? There are a few things I have supplies for."
She then goes back to her stove and turns it on to preheat the pans.

"Alright, then I will make bacon, eggs, and toast. Are you particularly hungry? I can make extra."
Soraka then gets to work, rummaging in her fridge for the proper ingredients. She begins to hum as she cooks. She cuts open the package of bacon and lays a few strips down on a pan. It sizzles loudly and occasionally pops. Orion, now finished with his food, is licking his paw and wiping it on his face.
"Where will you be going once you leave here?"

Almyra shook her head, "I'm not very hungry, you don't need to make any extra, thank you for offering though." She shrugged. "I am not sure, wherever the strings guide me. That is what I do, simply wander and observe. One day I may simply stay at the shores of a small pond, another I may go to a bustling city. It all depends on how the forces of events affect me."

She turns back to her guest.
"Alright, I will pack you some non perishable food for the road though. No one leaves here without a meal to go! Hmm ok, but remember wherever you may go you are always welcome back here."
The bacon makes a loud pop and Soraka quickly turns around to check on it. She then scoops some butter into the other pan and it melts fast. She spreads it around evenly and cracks a few eggs into it. She was unsure of how Almyra liked her eggs, so she made one of every style. She continues humming as she took out a small loaf of bread and began to carefully slice it.
The cruelty of one will not blind me of the suffering of many.
"Thank you, you are very generous." Since there seems to be little way that she can help make breakfast, Almyra just waits, sitting on the bed. "I may or may not return, some places I go to only once, others I visit multiple times. Even if we do not meet here, the probability is high that we will meet again. The closest thing I have to a permanent home is not far from here."
"It is difficult to predict if and when our paths may cross. I will try to have it happen again, though." She paused a moment, in thought. "It is possible that you may not die, the stars may accept you again, or perhaps you will die, and based on the actions you took in this life, the stars may judge you worthy to join them, and you will be reborn as you were before you became mortal. My prediction has a margin of error too large for the probability to be considered, but it is possible."

Soraka then takes the bacon and eggs out of the pan and onto a paper towel to rest. The toast pops up and she snatches it and places it on a plate.
"I feel myself aging. People usually don't feel it though, the process of them getting older. It just happens to them. But since I have only recently became mortal I can feel it."
She then takes the eggs and bacon and places them on a separate plate. The Starchild then carries the two plates to the table. She then goes to her fridge and takes out fruit preserves and goes into a cabinet to take out silverware.
"The stars were always a mystery to me, their intentions that is. I know they are good by nature, which is why when I hurt those humans I was severed from them. I do hope that fate brings us together again though, I wish to be with my creator."
The cruelty of one will not blind me of the suffering of many.
"One can always hope, unless of course they have suffered a traumatic head injury which makes them unable to." She looked down at the ground, thinking of when she had left her parents.. "I remember abandoning my parents. They did not understand what I wished to do, I did not feel that I should have to obey them, since I was doing nothing wrong."

"So we have both disobeyed our creators then."
Soraka then places the rest of the breakfast items on the table and motions for Almyra to join her at the table.
"What was it like growing up, being a child? I never got to experience this, when I was created I was already at an adult form. Do you remember when you first came into the world? All of the humans I have spoke to do not. I remember the second I came into existence. I had a full consciousness, I knew how to speak and read and write. I even knew right from wrong."
She then grabs a strip of bacon and begins to munch on it.
