It took Delita a while to find the item shop.  Added to the fact that he was unfamiliar with the village, he had tried to find them a ride out of the city. Unfortunately, it seemed that no airships were available in Conde Petie.  Having no desire to meet his companion without availability of a way out, he spent the afternoon asking the dwarves of any alternate routes. He would have arrived sooner if they had not shouted Rally Ho to every passerby.

Arriving in the item shop, it occurred to him that he had no idea what this Aerith even looked like. He was relieved to find the shop was filled mostly with dwarves, still he was hesitant to incorrectly identify the lady. Approaching a young lady, he quietly asked, "Aerith?"

Plucking the grass leaf from the knight, Aerith pursed her lips together as she tried to mimic the same whistling tune he'd done earlier. "Pfft!" It seems she couldn't get the hang of it just yet. "A remnant of your childhood?" The healer asked once she pried the leaf away from her lips. Wondering more about Delita's words, Aerith decided to pry just a little.

"Where are you from again? A kingdom, right?"

"Really?" She asked with a slightly skeptical tone as she opted to try again. Blowing gently against the leaf as she held it to her lips, a melodious whistle fluttered forth a second later. "Hey, it does work!" She said with a happy grin, one that would eventually grow dim at Delita's question. Unlike his Ivalice, her world wasn't as fanciful but it had the same problems as any other world. There were no kingdoms or great cities to mention but rather slums and small clusters of towns that existed under the haunting shadows of mako-hungry ShinRa.

"My home, well..." Toying with the blade of grass that sat in-between her elegant fingers, Aerith tried to figure out a way to answer that question. "It doesn't really have a name but it really doesn't need one. It’s a place where names really aren't that important." She smiled sadly.

"It’s a beautiful world but it’s not as beautiful as it once was." Truly, the words of an Ancient considering only her kind would know of such beauty.

Allowing a smile to spread across her lips, Aerith gazed at Delita with such fondness. He was a little different from most people, different because of his way of speech and mannerisms but deep down those subtle differences didn't matter much to her. He reminded her slightly of Cloud, a little more reserved and knightly but the resemblance was kind of there. He was also a little like Zack but again, Delita is much more reserved than either mercenary. The knight spoke with a certain flair that almost made Aerith a tad envious that she couldn't match his fanciful prose with some of her own. However, that envy she felt was more or less mild admiration for those who claim to hail from Ivalice.

"I was unhappy too, that's why my friends and I strive to make things better for our home." She replied with a little grin. While Aerith wasn't going to give Delita the full story, the abridged version was sure to come.

"A respite from the pain, I guess you could say that." Her thoughts strayed for a minute once that grin of her became a tad impish in nature.

"To seek a reprieve beyond the chaotic tides, to seek freedom beyond the tyrannical actions of less than noble men. Tis the respite I need." Aerith let out a boisterous laugh once she finished her little monologue. "S-sorry!" For someone who played a damn convincing 'Princess Rosa' within that goofy play at the Golden Saucer, Aerith didn't do half bad mimicking Ivalice speech.

"Ah, Delita. Have you ever been to Lindblum?"

"A garden?" Arching her brow ever so slightly, Aerith pondered what exactly the knight meant by 'garden'. "Do you mean you've seen the gardens in Lindblum or do you mean something else?" Just hearing about the airships in the grand city almost made Aerith kick on her boots again and hit the road. She was always fond of Cid's planes and airships, especially that big ship that the ex-captain been working on for years prior to her arrival at Rocket Town.

"Mhm, the more I hear about Lindblum the more I wish I was already there." Knowing she wouldn't have any time for sight-seeing once she reached the capital, Aerith decided that after Denzel was all healed up that she would drag Zack along for an airship ride.
