Mira
"Hobbies, eh?" said Mira. "Well, I love to read. And play my flute, of course. Riding my pony is lovely as well. I love riding in the morning; the way the sun gently warms the grass, melting the frost and lifting it away from the tender blades. The birds awake slowly, filling the air with soft chirps and sweet melodies; the sky becomes a magnificent, brilliant blue. Riding in the morning and watching the world wake up..." she trailed off, her blue eyes staring off into space dreamily.
Willow touched her shoulder gently, saying, "Mira? Wake up, Mira."
Mira shook herself out of her reverie, smiling at her comrades. "Sorry...sometimes I become lost in my thoughts. Where were we? Ah, yes, hobbies. You say your uncle has a library, Lily? I love reading all sorts of different books. What is your favourite? Mine has to be Far-Away Tales. It is quite a beautiful book; full of wonder and excitement."
