Sapphire! What a beautiful name this strange girl had. She looked like a delicate doll but acted with quite a bit more vigor and even some tomboyishness. It was immediately endearing. Belle smiled, nodding. "I would be happy to be your friend, Sapphire." She was about to continue their conversation when she finally noticed a familiar face.

"Ah! Ian!" she exclaimed, walking so briskly towards him she was almost skipping. "I haven't seen you in so long. How are you?" As she neared, she gracefully gestured towards her new friend. "This is Sapphire. I believe she just arrived here."
