Who: Sodia and whoever feels like harassing her welcoming her. Where: Espoir, near a stream. Style: Third, but I'm open for some change. Status: Open to anyone!
[Flynn was continuing his exploration of the area, it seemed no matter how many times he walked this path he could never get used to being in another world. However, the cry he heard followed by that splash caught his attention, rushing over towards the stream he noticed Sodia drying herself off.
For a brief moment, he couldn't quite believe his eyes mmm she's wet but with everyone seemingly showing up here all of a sudden he had the feeling his eyes weren't decieving him after all.]
Ace had just been wandering around, lost as usual, when he heard a small splash followed by a yell. Seeing as someone had apparently fallen into the stream, he decided that he could at least check it out and make sure they were all right.
"Looks like you took a little spill there," he chuckled. "Are you all right?"
Her mood was fouled the moment she landed in the water. Although the man that had come up to check on her seemed friendly, Sodia's injured pride didn't let her answer with anything more than a terse, "I'm fine, thank you."
Although she gave him an odd look for the towel (who normally carries one around with them?), she accepted it and proceeded to remove the excess water from her hair. Despite her thanks being muttered, there was a note of sincerity this time.
"I was sleeping and I suppose someone thought it would be entertaining to move me."
The irritation was still there, but at least it wasn't directed at Ace this time.
[It's then that the mage stumbles upon the older girl, some sort of a gadget tucked under her arm and hand to her forehead in order to block out the sun.
She squints down at the other woman, as though trying to remember something.]
[There was only so much the knight could do about her clothing, which meant there was little point in continuing her attempt at drying off. Just as Sodia is about to get up, a shadow is cast on her and she looks up to see a familiar face (although it seems that wasn't the case for the other party). Standing, she only gives a serious look at the mage.]
Rita Mordio. I thought you were on your way to Dahngrest.
[She doesn't deal well with serious looks coming from people dressed in knight armour. Shifting her gadget, she resists the urge to cross her arms, and makes due with staring down, eyebrow raised.]
... you seem familiar, and you obviously know me. Not to mention your knight armour. You're one of Flynn's goons, aren't you.
[Even though it wasn't visible on her face, Sodia appreciated the change in topic. Still, the question was a bit strange. ...And she completely misunderstands the situation.]
I only arrived here a day ago with a few other knights. Was there something you needed? [A bad morning didn't excuse her from her duty, after all.]
[She's just walking by the area, when she notices a familiar knight wringing out her hair. How very interesting, it seems that everyone really is showing up. She couldn't be more pleased with this development, as she was just on the verge of boredom.

Sodia? Is that you?

Commander, I... apologize for my appearance. It seems one of the knights thought it would be funny to move me next to a stream while I was sleeping.

You're not hurt at all are you? As much as I wish I could say this was nothing but a prank, unfortunately it's a more complicated story.

[Maybe she was missing something here. It didn't quite sound like he was referring to the exact same thing she was.]

The chuckle definitely didn't help.

[Does not remember her name orz]

Second-in-command of the Imperial Knights, Captain Sodia. And it would do to be more respectful of the Commandant in the future.

What happened?

Just an accident. [Having others see her dunk in the stream was definitely not something she wanted.]

If you say so.
[A beat. There was a reason she approached the first person she could find.]
Are you one of those that's been here long?

She casually walks over, and leans down.]
Going for a swim?

Weren't you travelling with Yuri? [Unless they had decided to split up, there was no reason for this woman to still be here...]

I'm surprised you remember me.

You were with him yesterday, so there's no reason as to why I shouldn't.
