Yeah. Aspio started as as excavation site deep inside a mountain, and it eventually grew from a small research outpost into a full-fledged city, all within those caves.
[there's a little hint of pride in her tone when she talks about her hometown.]
Yep! It's called the City of Scholars because almost everyone there is a researcher. I grew up there, so I decided to become one at a pretty young age.
That sounds interesting. I don't think I've ever been on an island that has that many researchers. So are you one officially? You're in charge of the blastia thing, right?
Yeah? I can't tell you what having an older one is like, but having a younger one is pretty stressful. [ he's saying it with a fond kinda joking tone of voice ] My little brother's a trouble magnet, and he used to be a crybaby on top of it.

Date: 2023-09-26 04:11 am (UTC)That's kind of cool. Is that how you started learning about Blastia? It must've ended up a whole city of researches if it started out that way, right?

Did you not have any family growing up, either?
