"You were my first friend made in this strange land... and so a sister you have become since. I thought when my path lead home once more, I would leave no regrets behind on Eorzean soil. But I thought oft of being unable enjoy your company and conversation as I did before, and have since... and my heart felt too heavy. Even with my soul broken and the fire left from my bones as now... ever you have been there to pick me up from the depths I drown beneath. And ever shall I endeavor do the same for you."
A woman who once approached Saikhantuyaa during the Grindstone. What began as simply a back and forth of questions and answers soon turned into hours of conversation as they viewed the fights. The two exchanged letters often afterwards, which steadily grew into numerous meetings where they shared drinks and spoke long into the evenings; with every get-together, the two learned much of each other. Trust and compassion formed all too naturally between they of separate worlds... who realized that, in some ways, they weren't quite so different after all.
Pia was always ready to aid Saikha in what little ways she could - be it guiding to the distant ruins of Sharlayan, or offering encouragement when the Oronir first met of her future husband. This support and care has continued even after Saikhantuyaa returned from Othard with Sorocan's death weighing deeply upon her heart. Though Pia has grown within the ranks of the Twin Adders and is oftentimes away now patrolling Baelsar's Wall, still she finds the time to check in on her 'sister' - one of few steadfast and constant supports for a widow drowning in sorrow.
"You are a strange woman - seeming to delight of mischief and recoil from affections given by friend or stranger alike... yet there is a kindness beneath such facade. And though we have known each other a near season's passing.. though you are oftentimes absent now, still I hope continue learning more of your many facets. Too much there is I do not yet know, and far more I understand little about.. But... one day, I would like to call you a sister-friend, as well."
A peculiar xaela formerly of the Mankhad whom was met through Sorocan's introduction, one eve during a Grindstone tournament. She made a stark impression upon Saikhantuyaa, confused as to the thaumaturge's dressing in what Saikha considered as 'garb of the pointed-ear people'. However, despite Irys' fairly neutral and lukewarm disposition, Saikhantuyaa left with a good feeling from their meeting. The next time she was seen, it was during a shared meal Sorocan put together - and from there, a friendship has built between them. Irys had even found a nickname for the Oronir woman... a seeming right of passage for any who would count themselves in the xaela's good graces.
Though an upset took place during a Starlight-themed performance, in which Irys prompted too early a confession from Sorocan to Saikhantuyaa... all was forgiven, and the woman put in good spirits once more. Saikha's relations with Irys - and her partner, Kyuzo - grew stronger as the months went by. Despite the Mankhad's often blunt and dry personality, Saikha considers her one of her closest friends and trusts Irys deeply.

■ "Seen her 'round the Grindstone few times, sittin' back an' watchin' the fighters rough it up. Notice she picks her favorites though... usually those scaley sorts what look like dragons." — Black Brush local
