Nell had been enthralled by the walk up in the mist, the huge trees rising above then as they hiked in. The buildings on stilts had fascinated her and she'd been amazed at just how efficiently they ran on mostly solar energy. Not quite as efficiently as her house in Soulwood, but then Soulwood was much smaller.

The bunk beds had been a surprise to her, but Gladio had obviously been aware, and when he pulled out the sleeping bags and extra blankets after a moment of his patented head scratching and 'huh', all she could do was laugh with him.

It was more fun curled up on the floor with him anyway.

She was a bit distracted at breakfast, taking to one of the staff about the solar panels and the solar/thermal energy for the hot water, making a couple of suggestions and a plan to tour and talk about them at the end of the day. But that done, she tucked into breakfast to fuel herself for the day of exploration and the beauty of discovering new wildlife.

"Amazing!" she said. "Let's go explore!"
