[How much time had Dakki spent in the Mayfield park, practicing her skills and play-fighting with friends? She was excited to see that this place seemed to have some park-space, too. And a bit less excited to see the state that it was in. It needed work... And though she wasn't averse to work, she was no gardener.
Ah, well. A new thing to learn, while here. And for now, it's sort of fun to go tromping through the overgrown grass. Though eventually she finds her way to the slightly-scummy lake, and after flattening herself down a spot, takes a seat upon the shore.
This place was nice. An unpolished gem that could be made into something shiny and beautiful with some work. But it still hurt, to know that she could never go back to the Gurhal system. It was a kind of pain she had worked through before, having already been pulled away from one home and given another... a mourning for the things and people she would never see again. And so she felt a softer sadness rather than the devastating ache of learning that she could never go back to Ragol or Pioneer 2.
She'd go and find her friends and make beautiful plans and smile happy smiles later. In a bit. After a little more time to listen to the rippling of the water and the blowing of the wind. After a little more time to simply be, after such a tense period of having to do without reprieve.]
