What was it now, day five since her arrival at camp? So far in and Eleanor Holland, daughter of Athena, was still finding herself frequently lost. Perhaps the only places she could confidently know her way to and from included the Athena cabin, the lake, the arena and the forge, the latter being due to it having been the first place she went to. Following the sound of the clanging metal and the sizzling of heated weapons cooling had brought her to a place that had reminded her all too well of home. The only thing in this camp that was remotely like anything the girl was actually used to was the forge. Furthermore, what had made her like the place even more was the presence of the master blacksmith, or rather the man she had taken to be the master blacksmith, who had warned her of the untrustworthy groups of camp and how to stay out of danger. He was friendly and after so long, she felt safe in the forge because of his assuring words. However, she abruptly, and regrettably, left due to the overwhelming feeling that she was overstaying her welcome. Nevertheless, the smith had told her that she was his friend, which made him her first official friend. This statement resulting in nothing but elation. 

But that was all beside the point. Eleanor was bound to another day of exploring, knowing the ins and outs of her surroundings. Knowing exactly where to go and where not to go. It was probably dangerous wandering around, and she received plenty of odd looks for her style of dressing. Though today, her dress looked slightly more modern. With less cause to turn heads. But not uncomfortably so. So to start with, Eleanor first explored the cabins, trying to think which cabin was which, though she knew she wouldn't grasp it fully just yet. It would probably take her another week just to grasp it all. Well, not completely. The change into this life was still too much, that would take much longer still to get used to. 

Starting with the Athena cabin, the girl wandered around for a little while, somewhat aimlessly. Her gaze fixed on each of the cabins. They all looked so different, so beautiful but in their own ways. It was admirable. Perhaps they were built to suit the god they represented, in which case they seemed all the more beautiful. There was one that looked as though it was shining like the sun! It was just like magic. 

Suddenly Eleanor felt herself falling back on the floor. She'd accidentally walked into someone, and immediately she got up (though with the help of the offered hand) and bowed her head, "please, do not worry. I was in your way." And so it appeared the docile girl was shining through again. She really needed to stop in her habits. Eleanor looked up at the girl then and smiled, noticing the redness of the girl's cheeks. "In fairness, neither was I. So I suppose either we are both to blame, or we forgive and forget." The daughter of Athena grinned, her smile clearly warm and welcoming. "I am still getting myself lost anyway, so I was rather distracted."

OOC: Eleanor is exploring, that's my excuse for getting her near the Hephaestus cabin. xD I hope this is okay, sorry it's late as opposed to when you posted the thread. (: <3
