Mikah Yule

Mikah merrily skipped away from her first ever dancing partner, Francisco. The man had seen her standing alone, and asked her to dance. Mikah said yes, but told him she was nervous, as she wasn't the greatest dancer. The man was charming enough not to mind, and soon enough, the two were laughing as Francisco gave Mikah dancing lessons. The man was a traveler, and as Mikah put her rose in her mouth, he said that she reminded him of dancers from other parts of the world. After the two had danced for a while, Francisco had complemented Mikah for being such a fun and pleasant young lady. He said that she was different from other nobles.

Mikah twirled with happiness, and sighed as she looked upon the crowd, hoping to find another dance partner. Instead, she found Lyra and Aurora dancing together. Mikah smiled. It was nice to see them bonding. Mikah always wondered what it was like to talk to them. Of course, she had talked to them on several different occasions, but she talked to them as Ike Crimsonite. Bringing up certain subjects with them was awkward. Mikah wanted to see if they were different when talking to someone else.

Mikah creeped up to them, squeezing through the nobles around her. "Excuse me," she said, tapping on Lyra's shoulder, "you two are from the house of the light kingdom...correct?"
