Wren had been very pleased when she had discovered this meadow a few days ago. It was beautiful, and if she was patient she often got to see dear and other animals here. She wouldn't admit to it if asked, but she was subconsciously cataloging locations up here in the forest to consider for building a cabin eventually. Of course she'd have to convince someone to build it for her, and that might be a hassle, but she knew it was something she wanted.
Today she had come up here and found an injured bird by the stream.
It was a small thing, she couldn't think of the name, and had obviously had a run in with a predator. One of it's wings appeared to be broken. She sat by the stream, stroking it's feathers to soothe it as she began mentally running through what she would need to find in order to set it's wing. She'd have to take it home with her until it's wing recovered, and she hoped her room mates wouldn't mind too much.

________________________________
It was a nice day at least. Ever since she had gotten to Eden, Bronwen had been in a sour mood. It wasn't that she missed her life back home, (actually she did, a little, but didn't care to admit it to herself) but more that everyone seemed to be tiptoeing around, like they didn't realize that the whole reason they were on Eden was to work together.
Sitting in the corner of the meadow she sighed, tearing a piece of grass from the terrain. Out of the corner of her eye she noticed another girl. She was sitting down, a little birdy in her hand, it's wing hanging in an awkward fashion.
A wave of sorrow washed over her. That poor little dear. I hope it's okay.
Pushing herself to a standing position Bronwen called over the other girl. Not realizing the other human had probably not noticed Bronwen's presence.
"Is it okay?"

Wren was startled by a girl she hadn't noticed before. She must have been rather distracted by the bird because normally it was hard to sneak up on her. She'd have to be more careful in the future. Being unaware could be dangerous up here.
"Oh, well it's wing is broken. Probably from a run in with a fox..." She said. "But it should be just fine after a few weeks with a brace."
She smiled at the girl. She could hear the concern in her voice, and it always made her happy when people cared about animals. She personally loved animals, so it was always nice to meet a kindred spirit.

A fox. Being from Asnarth, Bronwen had never really seen any wild animals, maybe a few rats scurrying around, but no, never a fox. She had heard stories of them, though, large red colored creatures with hug teeth, and bushy tails
"But it should be just fine after a few weeks with a brace."
"Oh, the poor little guy..." She trailed off thoughts stuck on the feathered creature. On time Bronwen had broken her arm, she had been miserable, the nineteen year old couldn't fathom how hard it'd be for the bird. After all his may way of transportation was flight.
Realizing she had skipped formalities she held out her hand, before awkwardly brining it back, realizing that the other girl couldn't possible shake her hand while she was holding the bird.
"I'm Bronwen, by the way."

Wren could tell that the other girl was still concerned about the animal.
"Aw, he'll be alright. I've taken care of others before. Besides he's a songbird, so flying isn't his only way of enjoying himself."
She smiled when the girl held out her hand before realizing that Wren's hands were occupied. She hadn't yet, but she'd have to have a few cages made to bring up with her in the future in case of similar situations. She stroked the bird's feathers soothingly before standing. Her dress was slightly rumpled and dirty from the way she had been sitting. She hoped someone opened a clothing shop soon because her mother had packed her way to many dresses and not nearly enough shorts.
"I'm Wren Hartwell. A pleasure to meet you Bronwen." She said.

Bronwen slowly ran her hand through her blonde hair to comfort herself. The bird will be fine.
She realized that the girl she was talking to was probably from Askion, since she had said she had taken care of birds before. It made sense, being from the forest there would be many different species of birds, a few were bound to get hurt.
"I'm Wren Hartwell. A pleasure to meet you Bronwen."
Bronwen nodded, uncomfortably biting it lip. It had been a long time since she had talked to anyone.
"Um... Well. What colony are you from... I'm from Asnarth."

Wren thought the girl looked slightly uncomfortable. She worried she had upset her or done something wrong. She was always making people uncomfortable without meaning. It hadn't been too bad on Askion, many of the people there had been more similar to her in personality and temperament. But she knew things were different here.
"I'm from Askion." She responded. Asnarth... so she was a city girl. Wren had never met anyone from Asnarth and didn't know as much about it as she did about Askion and Osbreon. "I've never met anyone from Asnarth before. What's it like? "
So far as Wren could tell, this girl was around her age. She hadn't really had any friends her age back home. The closest she'd had to a friend her age was her older brother. She had always wondered what it was like, having friends that were human and not related to her.

"Adventure is worthwhile in itself."

________________________________
"I'm from Askion."
So she is from Askion forest, tourism, and logging. There was no possible way anyone could ever get Bronwen to live there. Of course she was stuck on a middle-of-nowhere planet that had more in common with Asnarth than Askion, but Bronwen had no choice in the decision for her to come to Eden. She was about to mutter something about the planet's differences when Wren spoke her thoughts.
"I've never met anyone from Asnarth before.
Never met anyone from Asnarth before? Isn't Askion known for tourism?
"What's it like? "
"What's Asnarth like?" She repeated the question as compiled an answer. "Well for starters, it's very large, and there are so many different people, from far and wide, trading items and supplies."
"What is Askion like?"

Wren had met few tourists on Askion. The key to tourism on Askion was "adventure" and her parents had wanted to keep her well away from anything adventurous. She'd snuck off to the forest often. But tourism didn't appeal to her as much, so it'd never been worth the risk. Now though, she wished she had put in the effort to meet more people. Then she'd have been better prepared for life here.
'so many different people'
So Bronwen was probably more prepared to deal with all the different people here. Wren had never been much of a "people person" despite her parent's attempts to make her one.
"Askion is mostly forests." Wren said shrugging. "Like this one, but I think the ones on Askion are.... older?"

"Like this one, but I think the ones on Askion are.... older?"
Forest. If Bronwen had not been stuck in one now she might not have had the faintest clue as to what one of them looked like. She had been stuck in her urban jungle for so long, and only knew of what was outside of her colony from other people.
It intrigued her actually. The fact that there were so many different places, different styles of living. Not everyone was exactly alike. Of course most of the people from Asnarth didn't fit a stereotypical profile. But there was something about being with these people, who have spent their whole lives knowing one thing.
She looked back up a Wren, a million questions forming on her lips. Of course she knew she couldn't get to all of them answered at once, most likely she never would get to half of them in her lifetime. Which is the most important?
Unable to decide she looked back down at the bird. The little thing couldn't possible give her the answer, but when realizing how it acted she did. Recalling how Wren had said that how he had more than one way to entertain himself she thought about how other birds might not. They were all different. Different appearances, different ideas, different lifestyles. She had never heard that much about Askion people.
"And the people of Askion... What are they like?"

Now that was an interesting question. Of all the things people had asked her about Askion since she had arrived here, this was one question that had not yet come up. She took a moment to think before answering, gathering her thoughts while she stroked the bird's feathers to keep it calm. Birds tended to be anxious things, and an injured bird could cause more injury to itself if it got scared and tried to fly away.
"Well.... my parents were from Osbreon. I was born on Askion, but my family..... we weren't very typical for Askion." She said. In truth, she was pretty sure her parents had hated Askion. But that's where the council had wanted them so that's where they had gone. Having known no other home, she at times felt more kinship with strangers from Askion then she did her own family. Except for her brother.
"I think most people from Askion are quiet really. Most of them live in cabins out in the woods. Miles from the nearest neighbor or town. They like hearty food, a warm fire, and a good book more than anything." She said, her eyes lighting up slightly as she spoke. She had always fantasized about sneaking off and finding herself a quiet cabin in the woods before her parents could ship her off to Osbreon... but now she was here, no sneaking needed.
