My head's all fucked from- ( hang on. Let her think. ) I went home. I should have been dead but I wasn't - I was alive for a long, long time in the Forest of Dreams and I kept having these visions. I thought they were daydreams, things I made up. Of you, and - ( Aymeric. Shit. Was he real too? ) I thought I imagined it.
[ Saya's never heard of a homegoing in which someone actually remembered their time here while they were home. Her mind spins out for a moment before deciding she'll never come up with an explanation that makes sense. ]
Alive is a good start. Although you'll have to help me out with what it means to be a dryad. I only ever was one for a couple of days and I'm pretty sure they played fast and loose with the rules.
[ Imeeji being not known for it's reasonable depictions of things, especially in a game where you throw magic beans. ]
You were one for a couple of days? ( What a wild thing to say. )
I'm like... a forest spirit? I mean technically I'm a Sylvan Elf still, but I was changed by all the fae magic into a dryad that's connected to the forest back home. Or. The one here now? I haven't really tested it out - Gods. Can we hug? I really want a hug.
...Oh. I sometimes forget not everyone was used to that madhouse. You know how that sometimes on quests things happen that effect you for a little while? Like they'll give you a physical or mental effect? That stuff happened where I was before all the time. I got turned into a sakura dryad for three days. One of the rare effects I didn't mind.
--Sorry, of course we can. [ Saya opens her arms. ] I just saw you according to my own memory so I didn't think of it.
( Saya always did. Night Sky easily sank into her embrace, fingers curling into her back to grip the fabric of her clothes. ) it's been like... four hundred years. Give or take. Time is weird. I missed you.
( She (reluctantly) loosened her grip so she could look Saya in the eyes again. ) That's good. I wouldn't want anyone crying over me being gone too long. You think Aymeric is worried - he's. He's real, right? Conjuring up the image of a beautiful man to occupy my thoughts isn't too off the mark for me.

Are you okay? Relatively speaking.

Besides thinking my loved ones were figments of my imagination? Not terrible. I'm alive. Oh, I'm also a dryad now. ( So... yay? )

[ She gives Sky a gentle squeeze. ] I missed you as well, and in my own memory it's been a couple of days only.
