oversized shoes and long luxurious locks

After the Dawning event, Rapunzel had received some advice on where to purchase shoes. So now the previously barefoot woman is proudly wearing a pair of men's shoes, that are two sizes too big for her. She sits on the edge of a fountain in the Nexus, admiring a lily that had floated by.

The long, long, long cascading length of her hair is wrapped around the base of the fountain a few times.

"Did you know that some flowers have meaning to them?" She excitedly asks someone who was walking by. "I just learned that the Oenothera means wine seeker. Which is funny... because I don't even know what wine is..."

"Should I be seeking some wine?" She asks again, just as excited.

"There are so many things I have never tried before... if you had to experience something for the first time, all over again... what would it be?"

This young woman was almost like a calling card for Hunter who was walking through the Plaza on the way to do some clothes and shoe shopping himself. The man loved to shop and he had wondered on some new leopard skin outfits. Yet, her question got him stopping to notice her very long hair. Goodness, it was so long! She was also very beautiful.

"I think flowers are most beautiful as is a good glass of wine. If you do not know what wine is I may offer you a glass? That is if you are old enough to drink."

Hunter wasn't sure. She looked as if she could be of drinking age but it was hard to tell sometimes with the Nexus residents. These weren't reckless rockstars but creatures from all worlds and walks of life. Sitting down close by he offered her a friendly smile.

"I would chose to experience singing my first song in front of a live audience. That was the most magical thing for me to see everyone staring back, cheering and screaming with joy."

"Sky Lanterns? What are those? I am still very new to this place so you will have to forgive me, blomma."

The Swede offering the young girl a sheepish smile. He realised she must not have been to a live show before which was an awful shame but he would explain none the less. Pushing some hair back, Hunter couldn't help but stare at her long hair. He'd never seen anything like it before.

"A live audience is when you perform to lots of people at once. A crowd of fans with you on a stage with lights shining on you. It's really quite magical."

"They sound beautiful. I'm a man who appreciates bright lights and colours, no matter what time of year or what place I may be. As for being around crowds? They aren't that scary once you imagine yourself on another world while performing. That's what helps me when I sing. I get transported to a far away place so the crowd just becomes a sea of water, instead of a mass of screaming fans."

Was this helping her understand? He hoped so.
