Riu quickly shoved her curiosity of whatever was in Serenity village away. There was no way Sora could even answer the question. "Makes sense, but neutrality is as bad as helping. The Water tribe back home are neutral, which helped my family out, but if my grandfather had walked into town and demanded me, they would have turned me over just as easily. They are stagnant, and stagnant water is bad water." She hoped that made sense. Sora didn't have a chance to respond, as at that moment a handful of customers came in demanding Riu's attention. She thanked Sora quietly and with carefully worded greetings got orders from the customers.
