During that one day of Elfia, I managed to find a dry, quiet place of marshy ground.

And it was when around the Stone Pillars, I began getting my thoughts together, wondering where Toph was, when I heard a noise behind me.

A slapping sound and then a giggle, and I turned round to see a barefoot girl sitting on one of the large boulders, who flashed a beaming grin at me.

"Well there, stranger. Guess I won't have to be alone for a while then. Been kinda bored for a while though and thank goodness you chose that patch of ground. The rest are all slimy and it takes some hours to get the mud of my bare feet."

I was startled by her sudden appearance, and saying that she wasn't Toph & questioned her on who she is and why she is here.

"Wait, You know Toph Bei Fong? She's a friend of mine! We get along pretty well sometimes, especialy with more people.
Though every now & then, when they leave the place to help the others in dire need. I don't suppose you know Hyuuga Hinata too, or Amalia, are you?"

I nodded. This girl seemed cheerful, as she raised her arms in joy, dangled her legs around & her toes wiggling in delight, knowing that I knew those people.

"That's great! It's been a while since I had company. Everything seems rather quiet of late. Especialy now that I've settled down here for a while. But there are several places where there can be danger lurking around!"

I decided to pack my stuff and prepared to set off again to look around the place and enjoy the area for a while.
But the girl stopped me in my tracks.

"Hold it there, you! I'm not going to be left out on this little expedition of yours. You'll be needing a traveling companion to keep you out of trouble. Besides, my little hideaway home is not far from here. Tee-hee!"

I sighed and allowed her to join me in my little wander around the area.
She chatted about her loneliness and wished she could find a way to see her old friends Ashitaka & San again,.
But for now, she was happy to see me as a new friend and to join me on my little adventure through some of the parts of Elfia.
