Though, even with the return of her mother, she was still ready and willing to curb stomp anyone who even looks at her friends wrong.

Reima had spoken to Akasha about what she intends to do now, and she'd say that she wished to return to her world and try to promote monster and human relations. That and visiting her old friends the "Dark Lords"... When asked about her husband she'd shrugged it off, saying that Issa and her marriage were over.

For that question he'd gotten a suspicious look, Akasha straight up asking if he was attracted to her... Reima was 70% sure she was joking about that and the other kinky statements she'd made, though, even if she did want to pursue something with him he'd likely refuse. There were others more worthy of his affection, and if he couldn't accept them then he couldn't accept her.

The repairs for Yokai Acadamy were coming along aswell apparently, the school scheduled to reopen in a week or so. This presented Reima with a problem though...

Luna "I want to go to Yokai Acadamy!" she chirps from Yukari's side.

....

Reima picks his ear, "Huh?" he asks, having spaced out for a moment... He could have sworn he'd heard Luna ask something weird.

Luna "Reima! I want to go to Yokai Acadamy with everyone!" she repeats, causing him to leans over slightly and glare at her.

Reima "Who's putting strange thoughts in your head? New Hogwarts will be built soon and you wanna go somewhere that doesn't even teach magic?" he asks, the girl not backing down from his look.

Luna "Only nargles put thoughts in my head..." she says, her eyes glazing over for a moment before the clarity returns, "I want to go with Snuffles and everyone else..."

Reima "You know its a school for monsters right?"

Luna smiles, "Yukari goes, so that must mean she's a monster... And if she's one then I'm one too!"

...

You can't really fault her logic... They're both Witches after all, their races being almost identical to each other despite coming from different worlds.

Reima sighs and crosses his arms, "Yokai Acadamy reopens next week, I'll let you go if you show Harry that you are up to date with your magical studies... That, and you'll need to take a test to see if you're good enough at mathematics, science, and other subjects Hogwarts doesn't teach."

Despite his restrictions, he's leapt at, Luna's hands wrapping around his stomach as she thanks him... He rubs her head and sends her off with everyone else, turning to leave but getting stopped by Ciri.

Ciri "Do you have a fetish or do you simply just like spoiling every young girl you see?" she asks as she approaches him.

Ciri nods, "There is, it includes the word "No"... That or I'd accept you treating only Rissa and Luna like that."

Reima smirks, "Hmm, I was hoping to catch you out... Don't think I haven't seen you feeding the two of them like some animals at a petting zoo." he says with a chuckle.

Ciri "I can't help it, I'm weak against them..." she mutters with a helpless expression.

Reima shakes his head, "... Were you looking for me?" he asks.

Ciri's about to reply but they're interrupted by the sound of exo-skeleton covered legs tapping against the floor.

Quelaag "Ah, Ciri... Reima. Would you mind if I borrowed her for the day? I had something I wished to discuss with her."

Reima shrugs, "Yeah, just bring her back in one piece." he jokes.

Ciri sighs, "I'll talk to you later then Rei." she says reluctantly and leaves with Quelaag.

The duo leave and Quelaag leads Ciri out of Kaer Morhen and into the city, neither saying a word until the silence finally gets to Ciri.

Ciri "So... What'd you need to talk to me about?" she asks, feeling more anxious than she thinks she should...

Quelaag "The topic I wish to discuss shouldn't be spoken about in public..." she says, as they leave town and walk towards the mountain path that heads to the Chaos Temple. "It is incredibly important for you, Reima, and Ichor as a whole though... Something that must not be ignored."

On the way they spot some young men travelling up towards the Absolver Temple, they look beaten and battered from the journey... The time limit prevents them from slowing their ascent and the fact they're not allowed to eat another for a couple of days before the task only makes it harder.

One collapses to the floor, unconscious as the others walk past him... Some glance at the others to see if anyone was willing to help them, but most just shake their heads and continue on their own.

One teen with short brown hair and a baby-face frowns and lifts the man over his shoulder, visibly straining at holding his weight while already being exhausted... Ciri and Quelaag are impressed as they see the boy walk around the path out of their view.

Both notice the shadow of Risryn watching from a nearby ridge, the woman nodding at the duo as she follows the new potential recruits.

Ciri "Seems Risryn's found a new favourite." she mutters, trying to break the strange tension between her and Quelaag.

Quelaag snorts, "Nobody will trump Solaire for that woman."

Ciri laughs, "Yeah, that's true I suppose... Hard to believe they're both so old."

Quelaag raises a brow at her, "And what's wrong with being old?"

Ciri "Ah, nothing... Just saying it's weird..." she's about to continue her explanation but chooses to stop, realising that it'd only offend Quelaag further... She is around the same age as Solaire after all.
