[She's been staring into the empty crib beside her bed for a while now, and a chittering Momo comes to rest solemnly upon her shoulder. She sighs and rises, walking toward the desk for her journal.]

The Avatar--Aang--has left and returns home. [but a soft smile plays upon her features, and her tone softens] But he returns to a good fate.

[thirteenth]

I'm sorry, was he a friend of yours?

[themoonspirit]

He was, and a great hero for my people, as well.

[thirteenth]

Then perhaps it is a blessing he has returned to them.

[themoonspirit]

I believe it is, too. Even though he returns to peace, I know that there is still so much in store for him. [giggle] He's that type of kid.

[thirteenth]

And I'm sure you have other friends here to help you stay strong.

[themoonspirit]

Yes, some I have not seen in a very long time.

I am Yue.

[thirteenth]

Ukitake Jyuushiro, it's a pleasure.

[themoonspirit]

It's very nice to meet you, Ukitake. Have you lived here very long?

[thirteenth]

Since yesterday, actually.

[themoonspirit]

You're brand new, then! Welcome to Paradisa. Have you already been told about how this world is?

[thirteenth]

Thank-you. Yes, I have... it's a lot to take in.

[themoonspirit]

It certainly is. I've only arrived a few weeks ago, and I'm still getting the hang of things. If you need anything at all, I could do my best to help.

[thirteenth]

That's very kind, Miss Yue.
