[ktiseos]

I have been well enough, yes; naught of the sort occurred after my arrival.

[he gives her a little nod, there.]

...and you have as well, I trust?

[mustbepurged]

[She nods, smiling.]

A lot's happened, but... right now, none of that compares to how happy I am right now.

[ktiseos]

Then our efforts today have been worthwhile enough, I would say.

[mustbepurged]

[A small giggle, but then her expression turns thoughtful.]

... Were you able to find out more about Vax'ildan?

[ktiseos]

...he is not here, evidently.

[a little quieter, there.]

Therefore he was safe, while I have been present here, unless he was-- somehow returned due to also being my hostage. Even so, he is certainly safe now. Simply- elsewhere.

[it's a relief that he is, obviously, but also there are reasons he did not stick around for all of the staff reunions.]

[mustbepurged]

[She smiles softly.]

I asked Zixi -- Aquila -- about him, too. He said that he left back when they took over for the staff here... It sounded like he's been safe the whole time.

That probably means you'll get to see him again soon!

[ktiseos]

So he has. It is very like him, I think.

[still. he misses his stupid, stupid bird (affectionate).]

I shall hope he has not made himself too difficult to find.

[mustbepurged]

It's too bad I didn't get to meet him... I'm sure he's a wonderful person.

[ktiseos]

-well. Mayhap there shall still be some sort of chance, after all this, although he normally has difficulty meeting the living.

[mustbepurged]

Is he... normally not among the living?

[ktiseos]

His employment agreement-- this was why it offered resurrection into a physical form.

[mustbepurged]

Oh... that's right...

But people were able to meet him before, right? Was that just a temporary situation...?

[ktiseos]

...something of the sort, yes. Within the Prism, he was physical and present enough, but this is not so in his own home.

Though that may now have been rectified, if the agreement terms follow through.

[mustbepurged]

Do you think he contract might have been valid after all?

[Even though he wasn't here for like, all of the work...]

[ktiseos]

His job was being performed the entire time. As long as someone was Aquila... I shall hope so.

...he deserves it, I should think.

[mustbepurged]

Oh! That could be a sort of loophole, couldn't it?

[She looks hopeful.] I really hope it works out for him.

[ktiseos]

As do I. I should like to introduce you to him, sometime, if we prove able.

[mustbepurged]

I'd like that! You're welcome to visit my home, too, if we find a way to make it work.

[ktiseos]

I ought to be able to adjust myself to a more suitable size, once I've my ability to manipulate aether once more. I have no doubt I would stand out sorely in many other worlds.

[mustbepurged]

Really?

I-I mean, you're right, that would probably help...

[ktiseos]

I assure you, I have heard very often that my size is unusual. I have no intention of drawing undue attention or suspicion, should I go elsewhere.

[mustbepurged]

[yeah... estelle tries not to say anything about it but... yeah.]

That's good! If it means you'll have more options for traveling.
