"Ayr… Do you miss your home?" Alice asked, curious as to how Allura felt. To her, she never really had a home so she didn't understand this kind of longing.
"Of course. There isn't a day that goes by without me hoping everything was just a bad dream. How I could go back to the peaceful times with everyone I know. Unfortunately, reality is rather disappointing, and the past is in the past." Allura shrugged, putting on a brave front.
She was Alice's guardian, someone who will be her pillar of support. She needed to stand tall, unfaltering and be a role model for Alice.
Walking over to the river of black water, Allura kneeled down and plunging her hands in before pulling out Ria.
"GAH!!! Gods! I can breathe again!" Ria shouted out as she couldn't breathe near the end of that.
"How was it? Did you get the bounty you wanted?" Allura asked as Ria nodded her head.
