Ena, on the other hand, was more than happy to make a public appearance. She smiled genially at the crowds as they approached her, put on her airs to make them move out of the way, and offered polite greetings whenever someone called her name. But she didn't let them stop her as she strode to the arena.

The one time she had joined a tournament was fun enough, but there wasn't much on the line for this one which meant she could relax. But a duos tournament instead of a team one meant she had to personally ask someone to fight with her, but she didn't know anyone well enough to feel comfortable asking. It was a relief to have the random draw, and she was pleasantly surprised when the name was Sephiroth.

Ena remembered Sephiroth from the meeting. He seemed reliable enough. She didn't know him personally, or much about him in general, except that he had a presence and left an impression, and that picking him out of the crowd would not be difficult.

And sure enough, when she spots the tall, silver-haired man, searching for someone in the crowd, she picks up the pace to approach him.

"Sephiroth?" she extends her hand. "Ena. It is a pleasure to formally meet you."
