Alvyne meets Myko, and interesting things happen

The Diary of Alvyne AKA the Soft Doggy

Really. I met that Myko girl. She looks a lot like Fran. Hard to tell she's not a full-blooded Viera. The feet are wrong, and the eyes. Maybe one of Balthier's ancestors had blue eyes, because Balthier and Fran certainly don't, and most of the Viera I've seen have red eyes. I have seen a blue-eyed Viera once, but she was a veena, not like Myko. Myko has dark skin, like her mother.

Myko told me that she wants a doggy. A Paramina Husky, to be exact. If it wouldn't result in my instant execution by a bazillion arrows shot by terrified Viera, I'd turn into one and be her very own pet doggy! I need a home. I don't have anybody or anywhere. The Queen of Dalmasca put an end to that practice of Viera Stomping Day that town celebrated, and a Reena was not responsible. Pity.

I like Myko. She behaves more like a Hume than a filthy Viera. Hard to believe she's related to that obnoxious Jote! That Viera woman needs to chill before she has a miscarriage due to high blood pressure. For sure. I just wanted to rub her feet and make her feel better. She didn't have to throw a rock at me. Her boyfriend got a bit upset when she did.

Myko says that she has several little cousins around. There is Sylva, commonly called Vinka; and then there are twins, Janson and Slya. Sylva's mother, Jote, named her after her grandmother. I don't like the name Sylva. The original Sylva led the assault that drove my people out of the Wood, and that is something I don't know if I can forgive that easily! And one more thing about that name: I thought the Wood gave Viera their names. I've never heard of a mommy Viera giving her child a name. The Wood used to give Reena our names too, until we were driven out. My mother gave me my name, certainly.

I wish I could be in Reena form. I wouldn't hurt the Viera! I don't do that anymore! But no, those racist rabbits would kill me for no reason if they found out I was a Reena, thinking I'd kill their children. I like little Viera, I would never hurt one.

Being a Viera is hard. I have to keep control of my emotions or I might whine or howl. Viera don't whine like that and they certainly do not howl. The howl of a Reena is very unique too. Only a Reena can do it and have it sound like an actual Reena howl! That would give me away for sure.

Maybe my feet will stop hurting over time too. I hope I can get used to walking like a Viera without it hurting soon!
