What a waste...

[At least if she'd been home fighting to stay alive among a crumbling world, she'd have had something to do. She'd been in a constant state of wandering, practicing, not letting her resolve get weak. She was alive, and that was enough to keep her heart strong. She'd outlived that witch who had forced her to act to her will, likely outlived her mentor who had betrayed her... She'd wandered into the trees, casting ice at whatever she would deem a target. Even if this place was just another prison for her, she would use it to get stronger.]

[Alcyone had managed to escape the Valentine's Day nonsense. Perhaps because she knew better than to eat random things lying on the ground, and had been too deep in the caves icing over anything stupid enough to challenge her to get shot by anything. She'd been spending a lot of time down in the caves, really. It was good practice for her inevitable return to a dying world that would be over run with monsters.

But even a master sorceress needs a break now and then, and Alcyone's returned to the beach. She's left her capes and armor and boots past the point where the water breaks and is out thigh-deep in the water just sort of staring off into space. It's cold, but she prefers it that way. When you've spent as long as she has spiritually bonded to the prospect of frozen things, the cold doesn't get to you as much after a while.

She's still trying to figure out what exactly she's being expected to do here. This isn't as cut and dry as what the Magic Knights did, even if they were completely lied to about their objective. All she knows is that she's here, and there's someone in control of her environment. Another Emeraude. But if this "Eureka" wanted to die, wanted to be killed like Emeraude had, she wouldn't be hiding. At the very least, she'd be trying to find the strongest warriors and guide them to her.

But there's been none of that. Not even a hint toward it.

So Alcyone was at a loss, and she didn't like it.]

[Alcyone was pleased. Somehow - she couldn't explain it really - she had found an ally. It was a blur to her mostly. She remembered talking to the woman for a long time.

Chell...

Her name was Chell. She reminded Alcyone of Autozam, even though she was sure that Chell wasn't from there. Then she remembered going back to the house she'd taken over, turning on every light, and then going to sleep. She'd woken up with a bit of a headache, but now that she was sitting outside and had gotten some air, she felt better.

Her lack of control over her situation still bothered her, but at least now, she had someone who could help her. Chell likely understood more about this sort of world than Alcyone ever could. And she would need that.

But for now, the weather was nice, and things were quiet. No word form this "Lady Eureka", and with the lack of monsters and natural disasters she was accustomed to when a pillar was in danger, she found no immediate threat. So for now, she would relax.]
