Lobco & Stella
The Sea Kingdom was still recovering and would be for a very long time. Lobco is certain that absolutely no one could have predicted this. What started out as little tiffs, evolved to a near war with an allied kingdom, and then an invasion from a diseased sea that nearly took away everything that everyone knew and loved.
It was scary to think how, had things gone differently, it could all have gone very wrong. If not for Wadanohara and her familiars, doubtless it would have. It’s something that Lobco doesn’t let her mind linger on. Should she do that it’d only cause her to panic and that’s the exact opposite of what she’s trying to achieve right now. In the aftermath of it all, Chlomaki kindly granted her time to remain here in the sea with her family. She’d been keeping herself busy helping with town reconstructions and searching for missing people.
That’s what found her here on Lonely Isle. The town had been evacuated when the invasion first occurred, and townspeople were scattered everywhere still, oblivious to all that had transpired.
Lobco was just about to call it quits for finding anyone here after hours of searching when finally her antennas picked up traces of someone. Someone she didn’t know. That wasn’t unusual given that she hadn’t been home in a very long time and thus didn’t recall everyone’s scents...not to mention the possibility of new people coming it.
Concern and relief in equal parts filled her as she started hurrying towards the source. When she arrived, however, the sight gave Lobco room for pause.
A young girl who distinctly did not look like she was from the Blue Sea...then again, perhaps it was just paranoia coming into play. Some people would look at her and say the same of Lobco.
“...are you okay?”
