They appeared on the deck of her ship, and the other two looked around.

"This is just a wooden, modern, yacht."

"Yup. Nice isn't it. There's a pool if you want to swim. Just give me a minute to clean it."

She walked over to the pool and cast cleaning magic before setting her bag down beside a chair.

"I'm going to set the course and take a nap, so feel free to look around. If you swim, please don't splash me or yell."

"Sure."

They watched as she spread her mana around the boat, lifting it away from the dock and into open water, before activating the engine. After she did so, she laid down on the chair and relaxed in the sun. She was bundled up as it was still December, but she was comfortable.
Vander picked up her bag and went into the cabins. There were ten rooms, all fairly decent size, and one of the doors had her name on it. He set her bag just inside the room before claiming one for himself. As he entered the room he placed his palm on the face of the door, burning his handprint into it.
Choi Han had followed him, but after Vander entered a room, he picked his own. The rooms were well furnished, if slightly minimalistic. Fluffy comforters made of linen enhanced with mana and feathers, the cloth was stain proof and the feathers were unable to poke through. A lamp was on a bedside table that had a cup/bottle holder attached. There was a dresser, and on top of it was an empty picture frame. In the hall were two bathrooms, one on either side. Vander and Choi Han looked around for a while before heading back to the deck. Kila was laying there, fast asleep, with a protective barrier around her. As they watched, they saw the snow melt the instant it touched it.

"Is that temperature magic?"

Choi Han was the first to comment.

"I think so? Wasn't it supposed to be vaguely hard?"

He had read one of her books on magic, and was shocked to see her do it asleep.

"Yes... it isn't Noonim if she isn't doing something hard as if it was inconsequential though. She merges trees and changes the color of rock, I don't think this should surprise us."

"I guess, Kila is quite odd."

"True. I wonder if she set it up because she's a dragon. Most reptiles are weak to the cold."

"That's a possibility, but I wouldn't guarantee it. This world doesn't seem like it would nerf dragons like that."

"Yeah. I would like to swim though, I haven't in quite a while."

Choi Han walked to the pool and was pleasantly surprised to feel a shift in temperature as he got near. Kila put too much effort into everything, and had set it up when she cleaned the pool.

"Noonim... the temperature over here is around 80⁰ F and the water is about 75⁰."

"She even set the temperatures? Wow."

"Yes."

They both put on the swimming trunks she had made and spent quite a while in the pool before they saw her stir. Kila gradually woke up and saw them in the pool. She smiled for a moment before looking down.

"Where's my bag?"

"I set it inside the room with your name on it."

"Ah, thanks. It's getting late, you should head to bed soon Han. Vander, I would say the same to you, but you're 28, and a vampire, so, do what you think is right. But Han, go to bed soon. As the oldest here mentally, I think I can say that."

"Alright Noonim. I'm almost 19 though."

"Yeah I know. Take care of yourself though."

All three of them headed in to bed, and by the next day, they heard whale song. Kila smiled as she woke up and walked to the deck to see five whales in the water. Haishi, Witira, Paseton, someone who looked like Paseton(Kila assumed to be his and Witira's father), and another killer whale. She waved before pulling them onto the deck. Two of them were startled but relaxed after seeing the other three's calm demeanor.
