Almyra joins Soraka at the table. "Things seemed more simple, there were so many less variables that I noticed, I did not try to predict or calculate anything. I was happy, though I still am. Unlike many humans, my fascination with this world has only increased over time. I do not remember my birth, my first memory is not until several years after it, such is common in us humans. As a child, I knew nothing, and slowly grew and learned, many times I thought I knew everything. Eventually he came, the man that spoke of chaos and strings and butterflies. It fascinated me. He stayed in the village for a few days, during which I learned more of his ways, his philosophies. I asked my parents and they said to stop speaking with them. I refused and did so anyway. Eventually leaving with him to join his disciples. Looking back, that is when I considered my infancy to have ended, though I did not become an adult until I left him and his disciples. They hindered their progress, purposely limited themselves, weakened their vision. When I left them, and opened my eyes further, that is when I truly became an adult. Even now, though, I still have a childish ignorance, as we all do." She took a bite of an egg when she finished speaking.

Soraka nodded at this.
"Yes ignorance is in everyone, even the divine. If I knew what type of man Warwick was when he brought that dead woman to my grove, I would of told him to leave. Now that I think about it he probably found that poor woman and killed her on his way to me. "
She then picks up a piece of toast and begins to spread preserves on it. She bites into it, making a satisfying crunch.
"I am glad you found your own path, even if it meant disobeying your parents. I find it fascinating that no humans remember their birth or even the next few years after that. That humans have to learn to speak and other things like that."
The cruelty of one will not blind me of the suffering of many.
"Unlike you, who was created as an adult, humans are born without their bodies fully developed. Their brains and bodies must grow, until we grow, our brains are not capable of holding such information. You most likely had the knowledge you would need, such as reading or writing, placed into your mind with magic." She continued to eat her breakfast, focusing on the eggs.

The Starchild finished her piece of toast and nodded her head.
"Thank you for this information, there is still a lot I do not know about humans. I have only been able to obtain small bits of information, tiny glimpses into their lives, over the centuries. I still haven't been able to figure out what a human is exactly. They are all too unique for me to do this."
She grabs an egg and begins to cut it up into bite-sized pieces with a knife.
The cruelty of one will not blind me of the suffering of many.
"If you do want to learn more about humans, I would suggest spending more time with them, travel to cities, meet people, help people in need, there are many in cities that could use your help." She finishes off her eggs and picks up a strip of bacon, taking a bite of it.

"Yes I could travel abroad. When I am not on duty for the League I could be going to different cities. Maybe I should get out of Ionia, I have made this place into my second grove and have locked myself away inside. I could travel to Piltover or Demacia."
She finishes up her egg and pets Orion, who decided to sit at her hooves while she ate. He leans against her hand and begins to purr.
The cruelty of one will not blind me of the suffering of many.
Almyra nodded "Yes, I would recommend going to those cities, the probability that you would enjoy, or be welcomed in Noxus or Zaun is low." She finished her bacon and went on to eating the toast.
((Happy 100th post ^_^))

Soraka smirks at this comment.
"Aah yes, The Grand General will tolerate me, but it is obvious he doesn't like me. Since I fought against Noxus when they tried to take over Ionia. And it doesn't help that I am always speaking up against their killings."
Now done eating, Soraka stands and takes her plate to the sink and begins washing it.
The cruelty of one will not blind me of the suffering of many.
"Yes, it is likely you will be treated with a degree of hostility in Zaun as well." Almyra finishes her own meal and brings her dishes over to Soraka so that she may wash them.

"Indeed."
Soraka is forearm deep in sudsy water. She removes any food bits from the dishes.
"The people of Demacia love me though. The prince is very friendly with me, and I believe the king sees me with high regard. The citizens always welcome me kindly, maybe I should visit there first."
She places the now clean dishes to the side and begins to towel dry them.
The cruelty of one will not blind me of the suffering of many.
"Demacia seems a good place for you to start." She looks at the door, then turns back to Soraka. "I believe that now is the time I take my leave and continue my wandering. Thank you for everything all of the help you have provided."

"You are very welcome! But before you go let me pack you some food."
The Starchild quickly grabs a medium sized cloth and begins to place food on it. Soraka grabs one of her loaves of bread, a canteen of water, and few pieces of a variety of fruit. She then wraps the cloth around it carefully and hands it to Almyra.
"Here, this should last you at least one meal. Be careful out there, many creatures have escaped the institute and it would be a shame if you fell victim to one of them."

Accepting the bundle of food, Almyra bows her head slightly. "Thank you, once again. I will be careful, I have survived for a long time in hostile areas, and know how to avoid threats. I wish you luck in your own travels. May the strings be pulled in your favor." With that, she walked out of Soraka's home. Continuing on her wandering of Valoran, and her unending quest to better understand chaos.

The Starchild watches as Alymra grows smaller as she puts more distance between herself and the small hut. Orion rubs his head against her shins as he walks outside, probably to go chase bugs. She closes the door behind her as she re-enters her home.

The speedster of Ionia had found himself at the Starcallers home, dressed in his usual attire, the bandages the Starcaller had placed upon his body with previous healing-visits clearly visible. Stepping up to her door he knocked three times and patiently waited for her to answer.
