Welcome to Gaia! ::

Eridia was out shopping as usual. She was buying off fine merchandise from one of the most sophisticated and expensive shops in the city while the piano player's music put her in a calming trance. So she kept searching for the pieces of antiquities as she hummed the player's tune-- a fine interpretation of troll Chopin's Spring Waltz. It was beautiful, like any other waltz but with a hint of sadness in it. While they played the piece, Eridia slowly danced to the music as she examined a Fabergé egg. Once the music was over, they costumers clapped at the player as they reverenced and left for a break. Eridia broke away from the trance and left the egg were it was, she walked towards the grand piano to get a good look at it.

"Such a marvelous instrument this is..." She muttered as her fingers gently touched the keys, being careful not to press them. It reminded her of her father's piano lessons, how he loved to see her play majestically as a Lady should. She loved its shape, if only she could buy it off... Oh how tempted was she to play it!

Eridia froze in place when she heard someone clear their throat behind her. The highblood breathed in, and prepared herself to weasel her way out of trouble with the shop staff. But once she turned around to face the other... "Hemera." She said with a hint of surprise.

Why on earth was she doing at an antique shop? One she clearly didn't have enough beetles to actually purchase anything. Was she following her? That was rude, if not creepy. The lavenderblood's mind went back to the ball... In truth she tried hard not to think about it. After that event she even didn't want to go out, she didn't want to wake up as she begun to have a much better time asleep. It was almost like a reverse nightmare, instead of waking up relieved from a nightmare-- She would wake up into a nightmare. Eridia force a small smile and adjusted her shawl as she resumed looking at the instrument. "I suppose it is impressive. Handcrafted, definitely. Just look at the emblem engraved Hemera, that's the mark of one of the most finest piano artisans." She said as a matter of fact.

"Awassi's grand piano must have been crafted by the best, as a troll who know more or less the attitude of important trolls, I can only suggest they bought only the finest things. There's also the possibility of purchasing a custom made piano as I do not remember if I saw any emblems on it. Though, it definitely sounded better than this one..." Eridia turned and meekly smiled at her, hoping her face wouldn't turn into a deep scowl. "Fancy seeing you here daaaarling, not every night you see a lowblood in here!" She looked at the tealblood roguishly. It was a surprise the staff hadn't kicked her out already. Probably her hue saved her from such embarrassment.

"Maybe you were attracted by the lovely tune and stalked your way inside. Or are you still fond of troll Beethoven's pieces and wish to recommend the player to interpret only his symphonies?" There was still something that she couldn't remember from the whole traumatic experience. But something told her that it involved this troll. "Oooh I am only kidding, you know me-- enthusiastic and jovial as ever!" She laughed, throwing her head back lightly for the dramatic effect.

"Looking for something" Surely I can be of great help." Eridia smirked.
