Amberine stood at the crossroads, her eyes darting between the various club booths that lined the bustling courtyard. The energy in the air was infectious, each booth a beacon of excitement and potential. She glanced at Ignis, who peeked out from her robe, his tiny eyes gleaming with mischief.
"Alright, Ignis," she said, taking a deep breath. "Let's explore a bit before we make any decisions."
"Finally, some sense," Ignis muttered, though his tone was more amused than annoyed.
Amberine's first stop was the Elemental Research Club. The booth was adorned with intricate diagrams and glowing crystals, each one representing a different element. A tall, lanky boy with spectacles greeted her with a smile.
"Welcome! Interested in the secrets of the elements?" he asked enthusiastically.
"Absolutely," Amberine replied, her eyes wide with curiosity.
