::Iole puts her arms around Rainii and Eva again, clinging to them so she can cry freely now. What Rainii said really did help. After she's calmed herself again, she lets go of them::
So... should we head back? ::Gives Eva a smile:: I'd hate to miss one of your parties sis.
::But before anyone can speak, another voice joins the group::
??: Wait.
::Someone emerges from behind the gateway. Lillith clenches her fists, electricity beginning to charge in them visibly once she hears that voice and catches sight of that white hair and those glassy black eyes::
Nyx: Don't leave yet.

:Kenny turns around and stood by Lillith wondering who it was as he looked to see it was one of the sorceress he saw at Edeas when he was talking with Lillith after tending to her.:
"What are you doing?"

::Nyx remains unmoving with a blank expression::
Nyx: I was just... looking for something to do. That's all.
Lillith: ::through gritted teeth:: And what did you find?
::She notices that her eyes flicker a moment towards the little girl in the center, and she feels her anger start to rise::
Lillith: You came here for her? For what? If you thought you could take out your anger at Natalia on her surrogate, you'll have to get past us first.
::The other witch's face remains as blank and cold as ever::
Nyx: I guess Shaft didn't tell you. I was never angry with our lady.

:Kenny remained by Lilliths side with one hand clenched on his sword ready to strike at any cost until he listened to Nyx said something that caused him to raise a concern look.:
"Never angry...How come"
:As he asked his grip on the sword loosen up a bit.:

::Lillith warns Kenny without taking her eyes off Nyx::
Lillith: Of course she wouldn't be angry. She doesn't feel anything anymore. That's why it's so easy for her to kill. She wasn't as bad as Guinevere and Echidna, but that just means she killed people quicker.
Nyx: Say what you want. I was never angry with my Lady because I had no reason to be. She never lied to me. Not once. In fact that's why she sent me to attack Captain Vincent and the others. I was the only one she could trust to make it look like I was trying to kill them, without doing them serious harm.
::Lillith lowers her fists a little::
Lillith: Prove it.
::Nyx says nothing, but flashes Lillith a sly grin. One that she immediately recognizes as that of Leah's stable boy Michael::

:Kenny resumed his grip onto the blade after hearing what was going on. He may be interested in listening but he still held onto the blade handle ready to strike and protect Lillith as he stared at Nyx. As he did this he noticed a smile coming from Nyx and noticed Lilliths expression as he whispered to her:
"Something wrong?"

::As soon as Rainii hears Nyx's voice, she moves in front of Iole to sheild her. She listens to their conversation, believing what Nyx was saying, but never changing her stance.::
"Then why are you here?"

::Iole moves out from behind Rainii to look Nyx in the eye, but stays close to her::
What do you want?
::As she stares at Nyx's blank expression, she can't help but feel a little sorry for her. She reminds her a lot of Lekalli. Nyx sighs::
Nyx: My lady told me everything. She trusted me with her plan, and with her safety, lest Jezebel should find out what she was really up to. I know she told me because she didn't think I cared either way, but... it felt good to be useful. Now that she's gone I have no one to make myself useful for. Then I heard you'd come out of hiding. My lady looked after you like a daughter. Therefore, I consider you to be her heir. ::She moves closer to Iole, making the others very nervous, but she only drops to one knee:: I ask that you make me your servant. I'll follow you wherever you go, ask no questions, and do everything you ask.
::Iole steps forward slowly and pats Nyx on the head, using her powers as she does so. She looks back at the others::
It's okay. She's for real.

::Eva relaxed her guard a bit and then stood up and looked around::
"Well its about time we head back. I wasn't expecting the extra people but regardless the more the merrier I suppose."
::She walked outside with her wings extended out and looked up at the sky::
"We should have enough time to make it back..."
::She turn towards Rainii and the others::
"Rainii's with me, Kenny is with Lillith and Iole I suppose you have Nyx."
::She smiled while she took hold of Rainii and floated in the air::
"Now hurry it up! I got a few things to prepare for."

:As Kenny watched as Iole patted Nyx without any tronle and then watching Eva fly up with Rainii leaving for now he carefully held Lillith's hand and look at her with a small smile.:
"Ready?"

::Lillith tosses Nyx one last wary glance before taking Kenny's hand::
Lillith: Alright.
::The two of them take off. Iole crouches on all fours, changing form again into the white dragon with black wings::
Climb on Nyx. We've wasted enough time here.
Nyx: You... want me to ride you?
Of course. How else are we supposed to get there?
::Nyx seems hesitant, but does as she's told, leaping lithely onto Iole's back. However she can't bring herself to straddle someone she just pledged her life to, so instead she rides side-saddle::
Okay Eva, you win. One last hurrah.
(OOC: Back to Costa)
