Iiala had her bags packed, one filled with books and maps to keep her occupied, the other held a robe made of fine silks with blue and purple colors that matched well with her skin tone. It even matched her headband, a bonus in her mind. She had gone so far as to pack extra hair styling utensils, mostly just a special spray to hold her curls in place and keep them from frizzing.
She went over her list she wrote out and checked off everything that she needed, verifying that it was in fact packed and ready to go. Iiala took in a deep breath when she reached the end of the list then looked over to her packed bags. She was prepared for her trip to Winterspring with Veronica, the two of them going to attend a Winter Veil’s celebration party, a social gathering. Iiala’s heart started to beat loud in her ears.
Realization was settling in now, she was truly going to a social gather… To be social. Her. The lone wolf, the one who stays away from crowds, the one who always did things on her own and was afraid to speak in public. Iiala was going to a social event where there would be a large amount of people, a good portion likely a higher class than she. At least she would not be alone. Iiala took comfort in knowing that Veronica would be with her through this new experience. That thought alone calmed Iiala enough to put her list away and pick up her bags, leaving the room to go find Veronica before they left.
