::Some time after the bombing of the Crest, Alicia returns to her office with Yami at her side. She takes the girl by both shoulders and kneels down to be eye-level with her once the door is closed::
Astaroth: You have a lot of explaining to do young lady. How did you end up with those people?

"I-I was seperated from you and master when they attacked the station. There was chaos everywhere. I hid, but they found me, taking me away from there. They said they were helping me. But then we were attacked by monsters. I-I kind of blacked out, when I woke up, blood was everywhere."

::Alicia sighs with relief and rubs the top of the girl's head::
Astaroth: Don't worry, you're not in trouble. I'll smooth things over with your father. In fact, I have a little present for you.

::Maria looks up as the doorknob was being turned. She set the book she was reading down before the door opened. She thought it was going to be that demon woman, but instead she saw a girl about her age wearing a black dress and long blonde hair. She closed the door and turned to her, a playful smiles on her face:: "Hello!"
"Um, hi." Maria replied.
"Your name's Maria right?" ::She nods:: "Well, my papa always said show your best manners reguardless who it is. ::She curties:: My name's Yami. How long have you bveen here?"
"A-about a day."
"Aw, did sis scare you?"
"Sis?"
"Yeah, she's always been like a sister to me ever since I met her. ::Notices the book:: What'cha reading?"
"Just a fairytale. It's called 'A Traveler's Journey'."
"Oohhh... I wish I could read it."
"You can't read?"
::She shakes her head:: "I haven't been taught that yet, but popa said he'll help me when we get back home."
She doesn't look like she'll be a problem... "How about I help you?"
"Really?" ::Sees her nod:: "When do we start?"

::It's been awhile now and Alicia and Maxwell are going over a few files in her office. Alicia seems to be the only one actively reading however, as Maxwell's attention is constantly diverted to the giggling behind the other door::
Astaroth: Does she remind you of someone? Yami I mean. You keep getting this weird look in your eye whenever you look at her, kind of nostalgic.

::He nods:: "A former student of mine back when I served under lord Sigismund. He had me train her so she would be able to defend herself if she was ever attacked."

"Her name was Nicole, but I often refered to her as Nyx. I haven't seen nor heard from her in years ever since lord Sigismund was defeated."

::A devilish smile floats across Alicia's blood red lips::
Astaroth: Nyx? As in The Coven's Nyx? Oh this is too good. I just have to find out more. How did that happen again? I mean was this before or after you worked for Master Nu?

"It was before I joined Nu's forces. After that event, I sought not only to find a way to free Sigismund from his prision, but to find Nyx as she went missing after that. It was months after that I found nothing. I then decided to seek the two that defeated him, the demon sorceress Natalia and the mercenary Crohan. But before I could start searching for them, I was backstabbed by my last client and was killed to make sure I wouldn't blackmail him."

Astaroth: And then Nu brought you back. How tragic to have lost the girl and then not even have a chance to take care of the ones who took her from you. I wonder whatever happened to the poor girl.

"I don't know. Nu has been keeping me on a short leash so to speak, however he has told me she's still alive. But forbade me from going to her for the time being. But I'm still worried about her, since she is a sorceress as well."

Astaroth: You said Natalia was the one who imprisoned Sigismund am I right? Well now that she's dead, her spell should have vanished am I right? Have you tried to get back into contact with him?

::He shakes his head:: "I tried, but that acursed spell still holds. But I find its getting weaker over the years without her lifeforce to sustain it. Eventully, he'll break free and walk the world again. Until then, I'll bind my time with my current master, improving my skills so I'll be better suited to serve him."
