Nix gave a small smile as she walked across the sand of the island, her hair was down and around her shoulders and she had a small bag hanging from her back. Her winter clothes were packed away in it with only her fingerless gloves still on her hands, she had heard about the fire nation and how it was warmer here but she hadn't thought it was this warm. Her shows were no where to be seen along with the socks she should have been wearing but that was a normal thing for her, she liked to walk about bare foot and had always liked to since she was small.
She had been thinking about coming to a place in the fire nation for a long time as it was where her father was born and raised before he met her mother when they were young adults, he had come from a low class family and had fought for a good standard of life for his old and new family and nix was proud of him. It really hurt her that she was an orphan

The sun glared down over Ember Island on a day like all the others. Miyo stood around in the city admiring all of the things she could do today; which was a complete total of zero. Cumulative from yesterday as well. She never understood the vacation destination of Ember Island. What was there to possibly do? Shop in the town? See a play? Go to the beach? All things you could do from home. The only reason she was here was because she had no where else to go. Plus, she wanted to see the island. She had never been here before... As Miyo stared at the ground, many people passed but one caught her attention more than the others. Barefeet in the shoe-filled crowd made her look up. An obvious foreigner with red hair was making her way around the island. "That doesn't hurt?" Miyo spoke to her, wondering if the girl would even hear her. As she looked at her barefeet again, she just wondered how on earth could someone walk around this hot place without shoes? Surely the ground was burning hot. |

Nix shook her head to clear it of sad thoughts and she curled her hands out before her and felt the air grow heavy with water before a faint voice caught her ears and she turned. A girl was behind her and was looking at her most oddly and nix chuckled to herself a she followed the girls eyes down to her bare feet that were now sinking in to the warm sand a little, "not at all, it's pleasant compared to ice" nix called back with a laugh in her voice before she turned back to her path along the beach.
She wanted to find somewhere to place her bag and belongings and then go for a swim in the water, she had never been in water that wasn't freezing cold and so she wanted to try swimming when you weren't likely to get frost bite from it. It was an idea she'd had for a long long time now. She spotted a rock a little way off and then nodded her head and start over towards it and started to remove her bag from her back as she moved over the warm sand towards the hopefully warmer rock
