I DON'T WORRY,
WORRYING DON'T AGREE
THINGS THAT BOTHER YOU, NEVER BOTHER ME!

Talya turned her head to look at where her new friend Sleia was pointing out. The island that loomed in the distance was known well by Talya, despite her only having ever been there once. She couldn’t even remember why she’d gone there before… How strange. “Yep! That’s Atlantis!” Her head gave an affirmative nod or two before her ear flicked back toward Sleia. She smiled immediately (which was easy to do in her current company) and turned her neck so she could better look at her friend.

“I would love it if you came to visit! I only went to Atlantis once, but it’s very different. Lots of colors and really weird animals. And warm!” Seemed strange to think about, given how chilly they were now. Of course, tucked in comfortably like they were, sharing their warmth, the winter wasn’t really bothering her anymore.

As Sleia pointed out the nearby mountains and asked Talya if she knew anything about them, Talya found herself frowning. “No, I’ve never climbed them… Oh!” She looked hopefully at Sleia. Surely the Good Witch wouldn’t mind if Talya was a little bit late making it back to the Harbor. “Are you going to climb it now? Can I come with you? I want to know what’s up there!”
