Journey

Once she matured after the first year, her aging has came to a crawl. Mio looked more and more like her mother Maie by the day. Her yellow eyes brightened with a blue offset to them. The pink pigments she had has long faded into black and red. She was able to conceal her tentacles away, gifting the unae short lushful black hair. Two curved back horns peer out from her head into a fine point with the same armoring shell her tentacles have.

Her busty hourglass figure is all thanks to the genetics Maie passed down to her, so the only resemblance she holds of Aki are her eyes. Her mind had been in a drift lately, missing both her moms and her half brother Yun. Desiring a place to call home, and hopes one day to see him again.

"Yeah, what made you ask?"

Mio asked softly once she snapped back into reality. Her opal blue orbs fluttered up at him with a faint blush. She might aswell have been thinking of his clueless brother when Taiyō asked.

She smiled warmly in return, wrapping brother arms over his shoulders. Lu was safe, Luon has her in some motherly hold trying to fix her mangled hair. The thought alone made the young kraken chuckle up in his gaze.

"I think you worry too much, you know I can handle myself right? What's that look for?"

After eighteen years, they've seen and fought a lot of monsters. Mio had ascended Luon with five stars, while the foxen processed nine stripes. Far greater than what her mom and aunt have. It must be the human aspect in her that makes her grow much more quickly than them.
