"A World... Hero," looking at Amy strangely and with a raised eyebrow. She had never thought the girl would come up with an ... excuse that was so unbelievable. Cressida continued to listen to the girl, and give her the benefit of the doubt.

"Wow... That's uh... interesting," Cressida replied, not sure on what to say. "Don't piss him off? You've got to be joking. I'm not scared of him..." she snorted, "Anyway, how old is Ludevec?"

Cressida was generally curious. If the guy was younger than him, it would be interesting indeed...

((...eheheh ^^;.....yeah, the name is a little weird....))

Amy blushed a little, feeling a little too uncomfortable with Cressida's answer. Amy knew she didn't look like....a hero. But then again, she was a bit on the energetic side for someone like that. It was her little fantasy freak personality that got her into trouble most of the time.

"Ludey is 15, and I'm only 14..." Amy answered uneasily.

"15?" Cressida exclaimed shocked, "You've got to be joking..." Younger than me... she mused, this would be interesting indeed...

"14? Meh, 2 years younger than me," smiling, half-smug and half-respect.

She cast her gaze over Amy's body, "You're not bad you know," in way of a compliment.

"Anyway, where you heading off to after this?" Cressida asked.

"Thanks...." Amy muttered shly, "I seem to always be in a goofy mood, but when it comes to seeing others in danger, I get serious. Saving others is what I do best...."

"I was going to head towards the college or maybe look around elsewhere for a while. I get worn out easily if I use my magic too much...." she added on.

Cressida smiled warmly at her. "Yeah, I understand."

"I think you should get your bed in the college and have a rest... The Headmistress will protect you from anyone... That is if Ludevec doesn't make a portal inside the college in the first place," Cressida replied.

"But maybe you can seek her advice..." she tailed off at the possibility.

Amy giggled. "Yeah, he might be able to, but I think he's done for today. Where were you heading again?"

"Em...Well this girl here," pointing at the tall girl, "Was heading towards the College... As for me... I've got free time, so I'll follow you if you like. Guide you around the place... as you're ... new to this world and everything."

Cressida paused and looked around her. The girl next to her had kept silent all through this. Sighing, she reverted her attention back at Amy and waited for her answer. She felt protective of her for some reason.

((... ...Now I'm starting to run out of ideas for this topic and for my other one....))

"Okay!" Amy replied cheerfully, back in her goofy mood again. "I'm so new to this world, so I don't really know where to go first..."

She glanced at the other girl, who still hadn't said anything for.....what seemed to be forever.

Cressida smiled in reply. "There isn't much here to be honest... A lake, forest and mountains. Then a church and graveyard, library and a bar if you're up to it..."

She tailed off. Turning away from the two of them, she began to walk down the alleyway, "So College first yeah? Anyway, do you two like reading? I've got a friend who's absolutely bonkers about it," Cressida allowed herself a small smile.

"Anyway, what do you like and dislike? I'll see if I have any comparisons to make..."

"Reading?!" Amy exclaimed cheerfully, "I love reading....especially if its fantasy....."

She started to follow Cressida down the alleyway, much more excited now that she had made two new friends....so far.

"Let's see...." she pondered, "Besides fantasy, I like to write, draw, and daydream. And besides hating Ludey, I hate horror, so I rather not visit the graveyard, and I hate science, but I love technology and astrology. I also hate math, because I suck at it. I used to hate spiders, but now because of Ludey and his robots, I don't mind them...."

Amy paused after a while, feeling uneasy again. She felt like she was talking too much.
