Keeping track of things makes it easier to avoid bad experiences! And to not make the same mistake like an idiot... :-/

"Humanity takes great pride in three things. Their willpower, their greed and their mortality.

Their will and endless greed allows them to grow and accend past other creatures
But their mortality denies them divinity

It's a delightful purgatory between being Fallen and being Divine"

"Oh so that is Bockwurst? It definitely is simpler than it sounds! Thanks for the explanation!" she said, with a giggle as she heard Xaviron explaining what Bockwurst was.

"Hm... Schnitzel does sound funny as well, but Bockwurst is still funnier..." Faye said, thinking to herself before she turned to Xaviron once again.

"Besides... It seems to be very tasty, especially with the way you explained it. It's decided then! I'll order the Bockwurst." she said, smiling to Xaviron.

Faye had noticed in the corner of her eye how Scarlet seemed to be having some trouble with the menu, but she ended up talking to Xaviron before she could offer some help (which wouldn't be of much use anyways, since Faye didn't speak German nor she could read it). The moment Scarlet turned towards Xaviron though, asking if they had hamburgers with a rather embarrassed expression. Amanda was quick to reply to Scarlet's question though, suggesting her a 'Hamburg Steak', which, much like Faye's 'Bockwurst', did sound delectable.

"Ooh! This one sounds tasty as well. I can give you a bite of my Bockwurst in exchange of a bite of your Hamburg Steak if you want to try it." Faye said with a giggle as she looked to Scarlet, before she asked the group where they were from.

"Me? Oh, I was born in London on the Hayward family's mansion on Knightsbridge. I spent most of my time in the family's estate near Dartmoor National park after I visited the Fairies and my powers awakened though..." she said.

"My parents didn't need much convincing when I asked them to. Not only it would be easier to take care of me there but It was closer to the forest, a place that always made me feel safe and relaxed, due to the magical energy it has." she explained.

"I don't have much to say other than this though. Unlike you guys I'm not an agent for long nor I trained like you guys did." she finished with a shrug as she looked to the others, curious to hear about them.

Myra listened curiously as Astra and Vrexen started to talk with each other as they discussed what they would do with the stinky fish-horses (one of which had escaped thanks to Myra's little stunt). While Myra did indeed get a bit curious regarding their taste as Vrexen mentioned they could simply eat them, she was slowly understanding how useful was having a good amount of shinies with them, thanks to Astra's efforts to convince them (more specifically, Vrexen) of the 'power of amas'. After all, the food she ate back at the inn was really good and the bed was by far one of the softest things Myra had ever seen in her life.

For Myra, the choice of what to do with the hippocampi was clear. She only needed a few seconds to think about the bed and the food she ate earlier. With a determined expression, Myra looked towards Astra, nodding towards her as she said they should sell them, giving a few steps so she would be quite literally 'on her side' as she looked to Vrexen.

Vrexen's hatred towards the sun was... strange. Well... Myra never really liked the sun, she always felt more tired and exhausted when the sun shone strong above her head (fact which contributed to make the time she spent on the sea even worse to the poor Myra... Which may or may not have also contributed to her decision to want to get rid of both the hippocampi and the boat, just like Astra said), but she found the idea of 'killing' the sun quite absurd to be honest. While she never thought if it was even 'alive' in the first place, she knew it was definitely, too far for her to reach...

It was at this moment that Myra overheard Vrexen saying something about wanting to kill, interrupting her thoughts. Myra knew that from time to time, Vrexen seemed to become a bit... unstable, especially on combat situations, as she had already experienced before and definitely wanted to avoid experiencing again. When Astra and soon after, Vrexen, presented her with a choice of either staying with Astra to try to sell and buy things or to go with Vrexen to kill something, Myra decided to go with Astra. Not only it was... safer when she was around her, but if she behaved herself, she would not only make Astra forgive her for what she did at the boat, but she might as well earn herself some tasty food.

After a bit of consideration, Myra pointed towards Astra, giving a step on her direction as she licked her lips, not even trying to hide her thoughts and the existence of ulterior motives contributing to her decision.

While the trip was largely uneventful, Nuallán kept a watchful gaze on both on Rosaria and the humans as they slept, making sure that they would be able to rest peacefully. Rosaria was the first one to wake up, having only slept a few hours. Despite Nuallán's protests, both wanting Rosaria to sleep more and refusing to sleep himself while she kept watch over them, Rosaria was firm in her words and he knew that he wouldn't be able to win against her and so, after an order for him to sleep a bit, Nuallán could only shake his head, letting out a smile and looking at Rosaria with kind eyes as she stood up, trading places with him so he could sleep with the same comfort she did.

Nuallán was exhausted and it didn't take much for him to fall asleep as he laid his head over the improvised pillow. Despite his light sleep, being trained to wake up upon hearing anything strange, he was able to sleep for a good few hours, waking up only a few minutes before they arrived on Myriamor.



The sight as they arrived on Myriamor contrasted heavily with the harsh and unforgiving desert they passed through on their way to the city. Staying true to it's name, Myriamor was truly a jewel hidden inside the desert. Even though it was in the middle of a desert, the city was able to prosper and grow. It's streets were bustling with life, from the many merchants, selling their wares on their stalls to the many demi-humans, unafraid to be themselves. From the freedom it's inhabitants enjoyed to the abundant resources that allowed the city to prosper in such a harsh environment, all of them were precious treasures, more than enough for it to deserve it's title.

After entering Myriamor’s Bed & Breakfast and leaving their baggage on the rooms that were provided, they headed towards the dining area, sitting down on a private area to order food. While the city of Myriamor was definitely safer than other cities, given both it's natural defenses and how important freedom was for not only the city itself, but it's people as well, Nuallán could afford to relax his guard a little bit, but he still kept a watchful eye. After all, the previous happenings made it clear that their opponent's power, influence and the fear they caused had a very long reach.

"The reason for its title becomes clear after seeing the city with your own eyes, does it not?" Nuallán asked, looking to the humans with a smile, curious to hear their words and thoughts about the city.

"Wait, really? By the way Amanda was asking you to go with her, I thought you knew the city like the back of your hand..." Faye said, with a thoughtful expression as Morgana mentioned that not only it was also her first time in Frankfurt, but she also did not speak a word in German.

Unfortunately, Faye was basically in the same situation as Morgana. She didn't know a single word in german and it was her first time coming to Frankfurt. While her sister could certainly help her, she was, most of the times, really busy and Faye didn't want to bother Victoria just to ask her about a good place to eat sweets on Frankfurt.

"Right! It's not really that big of a problem. Just as Morgana said, we can just ask some people about good reccomendations." she said excitedly, smiling to Morgana as she said they could ask inside for a somewhere with a good dessert menu.



As the group reunited again after a few minutes to clean themselves and change their clothes, Faye, noticed Micheal as he joined them. The clothes he was wearing now gave him a completely different feeling than the ones she first saw him with. While there was still the signature charm his previous clothes also had, with the feathers addorning his vest and the beaded bands on his hat, the contrast with his previous clothes made him look like a completely different person. Scarlet arrived soon after and quickly showed Faye she wasn't the only one surprised with Michael's new appearance.

"He looks almost like a different person, right?" Faye said with a chuckle, walking up to both Scarlet and Micheal.

"Your friends seem to be very excited too!" Faye said, leaning forward and waving to the gods that accompanied Micheal.

When Scarlet approached her, asking if she was okay, Faye's expression became a bit more serious as she nodded her head. Micheal followed soon after, talking a bit about his own experience, offering support, should she need it.

"I'm a bit better now after Madeleine helped me. Thanks for the support." Faye said with a smile towards Scarlet and Micheal, hugging Micheal and Scarlet back.

"I am... very sensitive to magic due to my Fae blood. But the... thing that is emitted anything that has a connection to the abomination is... different. Dark magic makes me feel uncomfortable but that is worse... Much worse..." she explained as she let go of them, with a serious tone.

"Still, Morgana's hat did help a lot. I might ask her to do something similar to me. To try lessen a bit the impact that energy has on me." she finished with a smile.

"Anyways, enough of this gloomy talk! Amanda has already found us a good place to go and I don't know about you guys, but I am definitely hungry!" Faye said, her usual energy coming back to her.



Faye was really amazed by the restaurant as they arrived. It looked just like something straight out of a fantasy book about adventurers and travelers. hopping in front of the group, Faye couldn't help herself but start wondering around the place as Amanda spoke to the staff.

"Look at this! I feel inside a fantasy book! So cool!" she said, amazed as she looked around the place, realizing after a moment that the group was already going for their table.

Much for Faye's surprise, the table they were taken to had two, very comfortable looking, red sofas around it, being one of those fancy tables that were next to the wall. Without hesitation, Faye immediately let her body fall in one of the sofas with a giggle, confirming that they were indeed as comfortable as they seemed to be.

"What is a bockwurst?" Faye asked, sitting upright and leaning forward as she heard Amanda mentioning the restaurant's 'specialties'.

"I don't know what it is, but it sounds funny. I think I'll have one of those." she said, thinking to herself as she relaxed her body into the sofa.

"Correct! Surprising, isn't it?" Catherine said, almost as if Srikandi had answered some quiz, chuckling as shementioned the Gremarre's royal family.

Truth be told, Catherine's 'connection' to Gremarre's royal family was something that would normally, be incredibly difficult to believe to people who weren't inside the academic society or were part of Gremarre, given her reputation and how... 'problematic', pretty much everything about her was. That said, neither the royal family nor Catherine herself made any real efforts to hide that fact. After all, Catherine was, regardless of all rumors, regardless of her problematic personality, undeniably, a genius, definitely someone like the royal family could make use of, while at the same time, keeping some kind of 'leash' on her, or at least feeding the beast in order to prevent it to cause any havoc.

"I know a lot of people who would be very happy to see that happen." she said with a mocking smile as Srikandi mentioned that there would be consequences if she was lying.

"Unfortunately, It is as real as it gets." she said, grabbing the bronze emblem from one of her pockets and showing it to Srikandi.

"Quite the useful little piece of metal. Most authoritie will even refrain from bothering me with useless stuff like searcing for weapons, dangerous substances or trying to take those away from me, when they inevitably find them on my posession when I show it to them. It's great." she said, laughing as she put it back into her pocket once again.

Just as she said that though, Catherine noticed how Srikandi called the half-orc a pirate, which made her turn towards him again, with a renewed interest in her eyes.

"Oh, a pirate? Those are always fun. It's never boring when they're included." she said, raising an eyebrow as she looked at the half-orc.

"Hm, wait a second... I think I've seen your face before... Mr. Fuentes, if I recall. There used to be a LOT of wanted posters about you on most ports. It seems both of us have quite the reputation, huh?" She asked with an amused chuckle.

"Finally! I was starting to get bored." Catherine said, stretching herself as she got up from the chair, following Srikandi and the rest of the group as they gave the first steps of their 'journey', heading towards the ship that would take them through the Cijatung river.



It was only after a few hours of travel that they had finally arrived on their destination. Thanks to how experienced the captain was, the trip was mostly uneventful, which also meant it was incredibly boring. Catherine spent most of the time either napping or double checking the calculations about where the meteor landed, both as a pastime and to ensure they wouldn't end up in the wrong place due to someone's incompetence.

"From explosive and incendiary mixtures to toxins and healing elixirs, yup. Everything is here." Catherine said as she disembarked the ship, making sure she didn't leave any of the dangerous solutions she had prepared behind.

"No need to tell that twice... Not only the terrain is horrible to traverse, but the creatures that live around these parts are really troublesome to deal with, according to the reports I've read about the area." Catherine said as Srikandi warned for everyone to be careful.

...

After hours of walking, the only big obstacle they managed to find so far was the horrible terrain. From the tales and reports she heard about that area, the place should be teeming with dangerous creatures. The fact that they found so few thus far meant that either the meteor scared them away, which was a reasonable theory for smaller creatures, but it was highly unlikely for the bigger predators or that there was something in the meteor that was in fact, attracting the area's bigger predators...

Regardless of the theories she might have, it was true that the sun was already setting when they finally found, or better, were found by something. The alert came from Srikandi, whom raised her fist after she heard a rustling sound coming from the foliage around them. Nodding to Srikandi as she warned them, Catherine stood silent, paying close attention to the noises around them.

The never-ending water, the constant rocking of the boat and the strong sun above their head were definitely helping to make the trip even more miserable to the poor Myra. While the tricks and hints Astra gave her did help with the seasickness, there wasn't much she could do to run away from the sun. Even if she was a bit more used to it than Vrexen, whose reaction was really amusing to watch, it still wasn't exactly comfortable for her to be exposed to the sun like that, which made even sleeping hard for Myra.

Incredibly bored, Myra kept trying to find things to do to help relieve her boredom and end the trip faster. From walking around the ship, to using her tail to make waves in the water as the ship moved, she did everything she could at least once and after she got bored of everything else, she turned her attention to the hippocampi.

Much to the poor creatures' dismay and to Astra's misfortune, Myra soon found the distraction she needed from the trip by poking the hippocampi with the tip of her tail, provoking them or investigating them, curious by what exactly they were. Every time she poked or approached the hippocampi, it made the boat give a small jump forward as they tried to swim away, scared of her. While Astra did shoo her away again and again, Myra had quite literally, nothing better to do so she kept going back to the hippocampi after Astra got distracted and took her eyes off her.

Her constant poking and harrassing of the hippocampi soon gave Myra an idea though. If every time she touched them, they swan a bit faster, if she scared them a little bit, they would swim even faster and Myra would be free from that annoying trip sooner. With Astra getting distracted once again, Myra found the perfect opportunity to put her plan into motion as she sneaked nearby the hippocampi, before faking a lunge at them while showing her teeth and claws.

Her plan went wonderfully well at the first moments, despite Astra's shouts. Terrified as they saw her, the hippocampi immediately tried to swim for their lives, the sudden acceleration making Myra fall to the ground. For a few seconds, the boat almost doubled it's speed as Myra, amused, looked at Astra and Vrexen, proud of her plan. That was, before she heard the loud snapping noise and the boat began to slow down. One of the hippocampi, due to how terrified it was, had struggled so much that ended up breaking the restraints, setting him free.

Myra only had enough time to give a single glance at the hippocampi before it quickly disappeared under the waters before she looked at Astra with a guilty expression.



Unsurprisingly, Myra was harshly scolded for her little 'stunt' back in the boat. Fortunately, the atmosphere soon got better once they arrived into Aldrakh. While Myra was a bit wary about the green-skins, having already seen a few of them back in Daka's forests and knowing how easily they turned violent, she was happy that she and Vrexen could move around much more comfortably than they did before in Yenworth.
With a mix of waryness and curiosity, Myra moved around Aldrakh carefully, trying to hold herself back from wandering away from Vrexen and Astra.

Faye smiled as she nodded towards Madeleine before she made her way to Morgana, who was still recovering herself from what happened. Truth be told, Faye did feel a bit guilty for not only not being able to help against the mage after he turned into that abomination, but because it was very likely that one of the reasons why Morgana collapsed was because she wasn't wearing her hat.

"Hey, Morgana! Thank you for helping me back then. Your hat is a bit... strange. I mean, it feels a bit strange, but it definitely helped a LOT. I don't think I would be okay at all if you had not put it into my head. Also, I know you probably had to go through a lot fighting without it on so, thanks again!" Faye said, looking at her hat a bit with a curious expression before she handed it to her.

"Also... I'm sorry that I wasn't able to do much against that mage after he turned into that... abomination. I promise I'll make it up for you somehow... I know! Do you like sweets? Ice cream? Oh, maybe cake? We could go get one after we go back to the HQ! My treat, of course!" Faye asked, with an excited expression, just before they got ready to return to the HQ. Sure, she did want to thank Morgana in a more meaningful way, but she also really, really liked sweets.



Already inside the car, Faye heard as Amanda praised the other agents for their capabilities and talked a bit about the mission. The headpats Amanda gave her for her being able to control herself despite the outburst of eldritch energy did help her feel a bit better and definitely made her happy. After all, she wasn't like the other agents, who had training and experience. In fact, when Faye thought about what happened, she still did really well, especially for someone with no formal training as an agent.

As the group arrived on the office, Faye was about to head out herself after Amanda said they should get back to the office at 10am when she heard her mentioning something about going to the town herself, inviting anyone who might want to go too and even asking if Morgana wanted to go with her too.

"You are going to the town? I want to go too! My sister often used to tell me of a few places around here that sell fantastic sweets when she came home from her travels! Although, I don't really remember where they are, as I never came to Germany myself..." Faye said with a thoughtful expression as she looked to Morgana and Amanda after she got closer to them.

"But that isn't too big of a problem, since we have a very good guide with us, right Morgana?" Faye asked with an excited smile.

"Perfect. It will save a lot of time on explanations." Catherine said with a satisfied smile as she looked to Srikandi, after she mentioned her surname.

It seems the famous 'Ksatria Naga' knew exactly who she was. While she did vaguely remember working with Srikandi in Gremarre once, it was just a single time and Catherine didn't care to remember about it. When Srikandi asked about the Gremarrian Academic Society, inquiring if they would pay for any collateral damage, Catherine couldn't help but let out an amused laugh.

"The Gremarrian Academic Society? Hah! Those decrepit, envious old men would rather see me hanged instead of lifting a single finger to help me." Catherine said in an amused tone.

"The ones I'm working for are just a bit more powerful and influential than the Academic Society... People who have a lot more at stake with the meteor, given it's potential to shift the power balance between the kingdoms of Friestan than a bunch of scholars, worried only about their own names, their fame and their pride." Catherine said with a mischievous smirk. While she didn't really say who she was working for, it wouldn't be that hard for Srikandi to figure it out if she thought a bit about it. It was almost as if Catherine only didn't say it out loud in order to make her think.

Turning her attention towards Anki, Catherine got surprised seeing her greetings and introductions being made with such politeness and a pure smile, without any malice. Catherine couldn't decide if she thought of Anki as naive or someone who refused to judge others solely based on rumors, but it was refreshing meeting someone like that for a change. Catherine was tired of meeting people who were either too envious, proud or were unable to hide their fake smiles and their ulterior motives. Honest people were very hard to come by, especially for someone with Catherine's talents.

"The pleasure is all mine, Anki. You can call me just Catherine." She said with a small bow towards Anki.

Just as she finished greeting Anki, Catherine heard the knocks on the door before it opened, revealing the fourth member of their team. Standing at over six feet tall, the half orc had a strong presence, which only became stronger thanks to the tattoos and piercings, gaving him a wild and tough appearance.

"It seems one more member has arrived to our little 'party'." Catherine said, nodding to the half-orc as he entered the room.

Karina couldn't help but to frown at Chres' reply. While it was true that she couldn't say she 'understood' everything Chres went through, what he lost and his thoughts, in her opinion, those kinds of thoughts were only useful to further throw someone into a spiral of depression, which would, in turn, make it even more difficult for them to find happiness and a reason to live. It is a vicious cycle.
Besides... Having a team member with that sort of mentality could turn out to be a risk to the rest of the team and considering their situation, more risks were the only thing they didn't need.

"Take it, Chres. This jade candle is one of the few we have remaining and now, you will be responsible for it. If you need a reason to live, do it for your companions." Karina said, with a serious expression and a firm tone.

"Remember, you are not alone. Stay strong, Chres." Karina finished, putting her hand on his shoulder as she nodded at him.

While it certainly wasn't some emotional speak about how life was worth living, Karina already had dealt with similar situations before when training rookie soldiers. While Chres wasn't exactly a soldier, Karina hoped that it would give him some motivation to keep going.

Watching Karina's speech, Akai couldn't help but give a small smirk. Even though Karina sometimes gave off that cold and distant feel, she did care deeply about her companions. Even if it was in a rather... 'militaristic' way.

"Indeed..." Karina said after a moment when she heard Jen mentioning the salt.

"The Sightless have proven again and again to be rather... tricky to deal with. As you said, not only they now know we also know of their weakness, but our supplies are scarce... Especially now that the Kharu-Natjer are gone. We might have to do some magic with the little we have..." Karina said as she got the small pouch of salt she received from the Kharu-Natjer.

"Even though we only have a little, it might be just what we need to level up the playing field. We need to make sure to use it well." Karina said, sighing as she put the pouch of salt back on one of her pockets.

The notice that the infamous 'Walking Disaster' Catherine would be the one representing Gremarre to investigate the meteor incident was received with mixed feelings. The academic community of Gremarre could be clearly divided between those who begrudgingly understood the reason behind her being selected for that task, due to how capable she was and those who were outraged by the fact that someone who could as well be branded as a criminal would be the one to represent their proud Gremarre. In the other hand, most of the staff members and at least half of the adventurers that frequented the Adventurer's Guild branch in Gremarre were ecstatic. Even though Catherine herself had been holed up at her bunker-like lab, immersed in her research for the last week, every time she got out, either in search of ingredients or requests to take at the guild, the staff members held their breath with a sense of foreboding. Knowing that such journey wouldn't be a short one, that meant they wouldn't have to deal with her for at least a few months.

Regardless of what the academy, the adventurer's guild or even the population thought of Catherine having been chosen for the task, the royal family knew well how critical and relevant that event could be not only to Gremarre, but to the power balance between the kingdoms of Friestan. While their relationship with the human kingdoms was a somewhat amicable one, the Gremarre royal family was particularly worried about the Holdlands. Should the Dwarves be successful in making any significant magical or technological advance thanks to the meteor, Gremarre would be in a precarious situation should them resolve to use their newfound power to pressure them.

Unsurprisingly though, Catherine didn't give a damn about neither the commotion that the academic society was making nor what the adventurer's guild thought of her. For Catherine it was an unique opportunity of investigating an once-in-a-lifetime event. Catherine herself definitely wouldn't let such chance pass, regardless if she received permission or not, so being able to do so legally and with the blessings of the royal family was definitely one less headache she might have to deal with later.



The trip to Cendana in Pataliputra was a rather uneventful one. With most problems that involved documentation or bureaucracy being resolved with a single flash of the bronze badge containing the Gremarre Royal Emblem which identified Catherine as an adventurer working directly for the Gremarre Royal family, the trip was almost a boring one. Fortunately, thanks to the excitement Catherine had as she thought about the meteor and it's possible contents, she didn't have time to think about being bored. From new alloys, metals, minerals and substances inside the meteor's body to even biologic matter, the possibilities were endless and she wanted to be sure she wouldn't miss an opportunity because she wasn't prepared.

Upon arriving at the city of Cendana, even though it was her first time visiting it, Catherine could clearly see that the city was busier than ever. In fact, if it wasn't for the bronze emblem the Gremarre Royalty gave her, she would still be outside, waiting on the queue to enter the city. Upon entering Cendana, the first thing she was met with was the uncountable merchants and traders, offering their wares to the adventurers in the marketplace area. From weapons and armor to food and camping supplies, the amount of merchants and traders that were flooding the city only lost to the amount of adventurers that were roaming the streets.

Surprisingly enough, the Adventurer's guild wasn't as busy as Catherine had expected, seeing the amount of people that had gathered in the town of Cendana. The very second she stepped inside the guild, she could feel the burning stares of not only the guild staff, but a few of the 'adventurers' inside, which did seem to be suspiciously well behaved and disciplined. Much more than the common adventurers she was used to. Raising an eyebrow, Catherine couldn't help but wonder if the 'warm welcome' was for her or some big-shot that might be present...

Completely unfazed by the stares, Catherine simply walked to the counter, stopping just in front of a nervous-looking young man. The way he looked around, searching for his superiors as Catherine stopped just in front of him, putting the bronze emblem on the counter with a loud clack. Already impatient due to the amount of people she had to push away while coming to the adventurer's guild, Catherine quickly became annoyed not only with the time the young man was taking, but due to how fidgety he was.

"What's the hold up now...? You see the emblem, right? You know just how hard it is to counterfeit these things..." she said, with a heavy, exhausted sigh.

After the nervous staff member pointed to a door in the end of a corridor, Catherine looked at the boy, sighing and shaking her head in disappointment. Just as she began making her way though, another one of the staff members blocked her way, putting his hand in front of her as she pointed towards her overcoat.

"I'm sorry, but you will have to leave the... umm... explosives... here." he said, pointing towards some of the vials that were hanging.

"Oh please, go ahead. Half of these liquids are extremely unstable compounds. Some explode, others burn uncontrollably when in contact with oxygen and a few of them will immediately vaporize into an extremely corrosive gas... The others are incredibly toxic and poisonous..." She said, taking one of the vials, with a dangerous looking, bright green liquid inside, pointing it at him.

"You have around... One in 43 chances of finding the healing potion, SHOULD you open something you shouldn't have or drop something... Considering it won't immediately kill or incapacitate you and the others around." She said with an acid smirk.

"Do you want to try your luck? No? Then GET. OUT. OF. MY. WAY." she said, pushing the staff member away, slamming him into the wall as she passed by

Catherine entered the room without any hesitation, not even considering knocking. The moment she did so, she couldn't believe what she was seeing inside. While one of the adventurers was a well known name, known as Ksatria Naga. The other was no one other than one of the famous 'doll princesses' from Oberia.

"That explains why the staff is so nervous with my arrival..." Catherine said with a chuckle as she entered the room, certain that both of them were able to hear the commotion when she entered the building.

"Ksatria Naga. Your fame precedes you." she said, looking at her with an amused expression before she turned towards Anki.

"And you..." Catherine said, approaching Anki.

"One of Oberia's famous 'doll princesses'... How intriguing..." Catherine said as she walked around Anki, looking at her with the sharp eyes of a brilliant alchemist.

After a brief moment, satisfied after observing Anki, she pulled a chair and sat down, looking at both women that shared the room with her.

"I'm Catherine, an alchemist." she said with a smile in a short and simple introduction, purposefully avoiding mentioning her surname and the 'nickname' that she received as an adventurer, curious to see if any one of them knew who she was.
