Welcome to the forums and to Balmung! I hope your time here (and on Balmung) has been fruitful thus far!
I, too, am a returning player looking for new contacts. Like S'hatsuho, C'io left her tribe several years ago, though not without lingering resentiment. She believed her father, the acting Nunh, had subverted the tribal order for his own selfish ambitions, and though she remained at first for her mother's peace of mind, she finally followed her own convictions and left to experience the world. You can sift through the basic details here on her the wiki: https://wiki.ffxiv-roleplayers.com/pages/C'io_Behkt
What I find most compelling in your many hooks is the opportunity for C'io to see another Miqo'te undergo the transition from a tribal understanding of the world to the more cosmopolitan one demanded by the Eorzean city-state alliance. Hatsu would remind C'io of her former circumstances, but also to what happens when one maintains a mostly-healthy relationship with home. The differences in culture, geography, and circumstance could create an interesting interchange between them, as might the small similarities in ethics and in how each view Nunhs with caution. (Hey Val, .)
C'io is no stranger to La Noscea, so travel to where Hatsu is currently comfortable for roleplay is not a problem. And later, when your character is ready to expand outward, C'io will happily help her avoid the many pitfalls of Ul'dah's kind of exploitative society, as well as show her the beauty of the desert.
My own circumstance is that I live in a funny timezone (GMT+8), but can easily (and will be more regularly) appear during EST evenings, though my main time to do content (PVE, PVP, everything) is EST morning (my evening). Still, despite timezone and the problems it brings, I would very much like to pursue this friendship, if you'll have me.
