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.

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.
