Here Goes Nothing: Gym Battle [Eira]

Eira's journey had been long to make it to where Maleko and his people had decided to take up residence, but travelling on Cloud's back had made the trip all that much easier with all of his incredibly fluffy feathers cushioning her wherever she needed it. With a mighty flap of his wings, Cloud began his graceful descent into the village of tents that made up Maleko's home, steering towards the largest tent where they had figured the gym would be. Eira waited for Cloud to land before she dismounted and looked around at the various tents surrounding her, the area reminding her of the early years of Eirlys and all of the work that she had done to get people to just settle in her home land when they were all living in tents as well. She was unsure of where she was to go, but assumed that Maleko or someone close to him would have seen Cloud's entrance and would instruct her shortly.

"My flight was perfectly fine. Cloud here makes travelling quite the breeze, especially to places this distance away from my home," Eira told the young teen with a gentle smile, picking up on his nervousness easily with how much he was stuttering. She wondered for a moment if she could say something to him that would ease his tension since she had been in his position before, but thought better of it as she followed after him. She felt that if he was anything like how she had been then pointing out a flaw in their leadership would only lead to more trouble and not to a growing experience for him. Cloud followed closely behind her, his wings beating gently to keep him afloat and close to the ground. "I believe this is our first time officially meeting, Sir Maleko. I have heard many a wonderful things about you and all you have managed to do in this region."
