"Just exploring. I knew I was bound to find somebody here, and I'm trying to get around, you know? Get to know people." while really she was just looking for her sister. However, her response was not a complete lie. She had a guild to expand, and by doing so, she had to get to know most of the people around here. Keeping a low profile was not quite one of her priorities, but she should have thought about that before she came here.
Her sister, being her twin, could be out there causing all sorts of trouble for all she knew. Then again, there was that possibility that she wasn't. Her sister, Victoria, was never on the bright side of things. She always had the darker outlook.
She looked up and around at the ruins while they walked through, keeping an eye open for trouble, as well as one for any treasures that may have been left behind.

"This seems like a strange place to get to know people," Sakura smiled with closed eyes at her, then looked ahead as they continued walking. "But it is nice to explore. And besides, you'll find weird artistic people like me!"
This place seemed to have a cold silence to it. If you were to stand still, would you hear anything? Perhaps just a slight breeze, but this place was rather dead.
"What are you expecting to find on your exploration?" Sakura asked. "You may have seen me drawing a sketch of the beautiful ruins, wondering of it's history and such, but I am really on a quest to find my little sister, Lia, and what happened to my childhood friend, Akiyo Yoshima"

"I'm on a search for my twin sister." she said simply. "I have a feeling she may have been through these areas before me, which means I'm getting close. However, I cannot tell how close." Callista sighed, really hoping Victoria had not caused any trouble. She fell silent for a moment, then said, "Well, I find people everywhere I go. Unfortunately, I can never find my sister."
"I'm not expecting anything, really." she finally answered. "I just go where ever my gut tells me, or where ever my horse wants to go." she shrugged her shoulders, changing the subject, "So, why you looking for your sister? Is she okay?" she couldn't help but ask.

"So you're looking for your sister, too, huh?" Sakura replied. She then heard Callista ask about why she is searching for hers, and if she is okay. Sakura sighed. "I don't know, really" she replied. "After my father fell in battle to protect our village, she was so devastated. And well, she ran away from home....I haven't seen her since"
Sakura remembers that day pretty well. The tears she cried, her mother becoming unstable, and Lia disappearing with all her things.

"Oh, I'm sorry to hear that." Callista said awkwardly, wanting to be nice, but not knowing the girl well enough to really feel anything for her. "Well, my family got separated a while back, but I can't remember why." she paused for a moment, as if trying to force herself to remember. However, she still couldn't catch those memories. "All I know is that I have to find my sister. I have no idea where she is, or where to even begin looking for her." she said, stopping for a moment to look at her stallion, who was right behind them now.

"Well, I'll be praying that you find your sister" Sakura said, slightly smiling at her. "Just keep searching, and you'll find her."
Sakura looked ahead as they kept walking, it was nice to talk to someone about this. Sakura can relate to Callista, because they are both looking for their sister.

Callista looked at her horse, and could tell right away that he was thirsty. After all, it had been a while since they've eaten or drank anything. "Think there might be a river nearby? Or any sort of water body?" she asked Sakura, despite that neither of them really knew the area.
She was sure it wouldn't hurt to change the subject for a while anyway. She didn't normally enjoy talking about her sister, or about anything negative for that matter. "Lupercus-er- my horse seems really thirsty." she said. She wanted to offer riding on horseback until they found water, but she wasn't quite sure if Sakura liked horses. She had barely even acknowledged the stallion.

"Your horse does look thirsty," Sakura agreed, examining it. "I'm not sure if there is any lake or some sort of puddle nearby. We could always look"
Come to think of it, I feel thirsty too. I should of brought my canister of water. Why am I such a fool at times?
"So, where should we start looking?" she asked. "For the water"

"I'm not sure. Perhaps on the other side of that mountain." she pointed toward the mountain that shadowed the old city. "Are you comfortable with riding horses? We can get there so much faster that way. I don't see any other signs of water." she said, watching Sakura as she spoke. "I don't have a saddle for him or anything, but he is very gentle." she told her, hoping it would incline her to agree.

"You mean, both of us riding on him?" she asked, looking at the horse. "I don't see why not, but I have never rode on a horse before"
I hope he is really gentle she thought to herself. I am really thirsty, better not complain. But hey, asking a few questions never hurt anyone!
