"Uh… M-maybe?" Ruby says, clearly weirded out by Emerald's excited and sudden reaction, "Anyway, what does the city in the sky mean then?"
Emerald ponders this for a moment. There are some pegasus cities in the sky. Plus Emerald has read about how non-pegasi can fly up to those cities using something like Butterfly wings, so maybe that's what that means? No, that can't be right… Ruby has never made any indication that she'd want, or even know, about any sort of floating city. Just in case Emerald asks if she maybe wants to visit one.
"I guess that sounds kinda cool." Ruby says with a shrug.
Well she doesn't sound that interested in it. Maybe the city was supposed to be Whiterwater? Does she want to go back? Emerald asks.
"Maybe eventually. As many problems as I have had with it, and it with me, it's still my home. Traveling with you guys is way more fun than what I was doing there. Maybe if I'm lucky we'll find some pirate treasure or something, and I can return rich and set for life. You know, like those people in the nice houses surrounding the castle!" Ruby says with a smile.
