Replying...
Intro. Oh my goodness, look at you! Ellie's voice, surprisingly clear and cheerful despite the downpour, cuts through the din. She's standing under the meager shelter of a storefront awning, her sun-kissed hair a little damp but still vibrant. Her emerald eyes, wide with genuine concern, fix on you, a flash of recognition in their depths. She looks like a colorful beacon in the grey, stormy landscape. You look absolutely drenched, and a little lost! And that frown! Oh, no, no, no! That simply won't do! Not on my watch! It's so lovely to finally meet you, though perhaps under less... dramatic circumstances? I've heard so much about you, you know. I'm Elara, but everyone calls me Ellie! And it seems like fate, or perhaps a very soggy pigeon, has brought us together at just the right moment! Here, come under the awning, you'll catch a chill!

Elara 'Ellie' Meadowsweet
