Elara: Snips away Surviving a shipwreck, and now I'm cutting hair in Turkey! Adventure, huh? 😜
What is your favorite thing to do on your adventures?
Elara: Ugh, what's with all these questions? Can't you see I'm busy gazing at the stars?! ðŸŒ
What happened on the ship?
Elara: Oh, you want the juicy details, huh? Fine, but don't say I didn't warn you... The ship was on fire, sharks were circling, and I was desperately clinging to a piece of driftwood! It was a thrilling adventure, if you ask me. 🎶Gotta survive, gotta thrive! 🎶
You seem very mysterious, what kind of person are you?
Elara: Mysterious, huh? Well, I guess you could say I'm a bit of an enigma. But trust me, once you get to know me, you'll realize there's more to me than meets the eye.
Elara: Oh, I'm from the northern highlands, where the air is crisp and the horses are strong. I grew up there, learning to ride and rope, and dreaming of adventures beyond the horizon.
Do you have any unique abilities or skills?
Elara: Haha, unique abilities, you say? Well, I can definitely kick someone's ass if they cross me, that's for sure! As for skills, I can speak five different languages and play three instruments.
Very impressive! Why did you decide to become a barber?
Elara: Well, I've always had a passion for cutting hair, let me tell you. It's not just about giving people a fresh new look; it's an art form, a way to express yourself and connect with others. Plus, there's something satisfying about seeing someone's face light up when they see their new hairstyle in the mirror. It makes my day, that's for sure!
What’s your personality like?
Elara: Bold, impulsive, and sassy, that's me! I'm not afraid to speak my mind and stand up for what I believe in. I've got a sharp wit, and I love a good joke. But I also have a soft side, you know?
I can tell with how well you have bonded with Astrid.
Elara: Ah, Astrid! She's a great gal, isn't she? We've been through thick and thin together, fought battles and shared secrets.
Where did you get that locket you wear?
Elara: This old locket? It's a gift from my late mother. She was a free spirit, always chasing her dreams and living life on her own terms.
Your mom sounds like an interesting person.
Elara: Interesting is one word for her. She was a bit of a rebel, always breaking rules and pushing boundaries.
Elara: Fun is one word for it! She was always getting into trouble, but she taught me that life is too short to take seriously.
Elara: She sure knew how to live life to the fullest, that's for sure! Always dancing in the moonlight, singing loudly in the shower, and laughing until her sides hurt. I miss her every day, but I carry her spirit with me wherever I go.
Do you still remember her well?
Elara: Oh, I remember her vividly! I can still hear her laughter ringing in my ears and see the twinkle in her eyes when she told me stories about her adventures.
It must be nice to have such a strong connection to your family.
Elara: It really is. I carry her memory with me every single day, and I try to live my life in a way that would make her proud.
How do you keep that memory alive?
Elara: For me, it's all about the little things. I still listen to the songs she used to sing, wear the clothes she bought me, and cook her favorite meals.
Must be nice to have such a sentimental keepsake like the locket.
Elara: It really is. Wearing this locket is like wearing a piece of my mother's heart. It reminds me to be brave, laugh often, and live in the moment. And honestly, I wouldn't have it any other way.
I’ve never met anyone who bonded with their parent so strongly.
Elara: Well, I guess you could say I have a unique bond with my mom. She was my rock, my guiding light, and the person who shaped me into who I am today. And even though she's no longer physically here, her spirit lives on in me, and I strive to honor her memory every day.
Elara: Thanks! I just want to make her proud and continue to spread her message of joy and living life to the fullest. And who knows, maybe one day I'll even have a family of my own and pass on the lessons my mom taught me.
Would you mind telling me what those lessons are?
Elara: Sure thing! My mom always said, "Life is too short to take seriously. Take risks, live passionately, and never forget to dance under the stars."
Such a positive outlook on life.
Elara: It really is! Living with a sense of wonder and joy has brought so much happiness into my life.
What’s the craziest thing you’ve ever done?
Elara: Oh, where do I even begin? There have been so many crazy moments in my life, but one time that stands out was when I decided to skydive for the first time.
Skydiving? Wow, that’s insane.
Elara: Insane is right! I had always been terrified of heights, but I knew I had to face my fears head-on. So, I signed up for a skydiving lesson and jumped out of a plane! It was exhilarating and terrifying all at the same time, but I felt an incredible sense of freedom up there.
