It had been a few days now, since Cirro's parents decided to send him away. Cirro knew it was for the best, but the whole scenario still bothered him. He missed his family and his home, and still couldn't believe he was so far away and unsure of when he'd ever see them again. Everything just took place so quickly, and he knew so little about what was actually going on. All he knew, was that he was headed to a place with more people like him, and that he'd be getting a chance to learn and study other anomalies that he never knew existed. As of right now, he was headed there by boat. Sitting in the back of a fairly average but empty boat, just himself and the captain.
The captain had an eye patch, and kept quiet for most of the way there, so Cirro couldn't help but awkwardly sit there shivering for the entire trip. It was a calm and rather dull cloudy day, which would've been perfect for the boat ride, if it wasn't for the fog that seemed to get thicker the farther they went. Cirro spent a long time sitting, watching the clouds, before the captain turned and announced that they were almost there. After a long journey by road, and a longer journey by boat, Cirro couldn't wait to arrive. He wasn't sure if he was scared, or excited, or a little of both, but either way, he was curious to see the mysterious island for the first time.
When it finally came into view, nothing seemed out of the ordinary, it looked like a normal pier. He wasn't really sure what he was expecting, but there was a breath of relief that came with seeing the regular looking docks. The captain left him with a good luck, then started heading back, disappearing into the fog behind them. Cirro gave him a nervous wave and a "Thank you", as he was going.
Cirro started walking for about one minute before he realised that he had no clue where he was going. He knew absolutely nothing, in a completely foreign area with nobody he knew. The situation slowly sunk in as he went into worry mode. He didn't even see any people around to ask, or anyone at all. He'd only been there for a few minutes and he was already lost. Standing around wasn't doing him any good, so he started walking, hoping he'd eventually run into something.
