Y/N's PoV

Boy, today sure was busy. Four more Star Guardians had woken up, so you know what that means? More mouths to feed! 

Ugh, my poor garden's going to suffer from all these extra mouths.

Ao Shin: Hey, it was your idea to house them here, so you can't blame anyone else but yourself.

I turned to my familiar with an icy smile that could rival my mother's whenever she was mad.

Y/N: Ao Shin, what did I say about reading my thoughts?

Ao Shin chuckled nervously as he shrank back in fear.

Ao Shin: Sorry.

I simply hummed at his apology before turning my gaze forward again. In front of me was a cart with twelve bowls of tuber soup with assorted vegetables and spices. Nothing too fancy for dinner, but hey, you gotta make do with what you have when you're living on a remote planet like Dalaria.

Ao Shin: So, who do you think will wake up next?

Y/N: Not Soraka, that's for sure. Maybe Janna or Blondie, I suppose.

Ao Shin nodded before we arrived at the former barracks for the Dalarian Royal Guard. However, ever since I took over the imperial palace and turned it into my humble abode, I converted it into a makeshift hospital wing, where I would tend to injured guardians seeking refuge on this planet.

Y/N: Ao Shin, would you mind going to Lux's room? It's about time to change her bandages again.

Ao Shin: Yeah, sure thing.

He then disappeared in a flash of lightning before appearing down the hall in front of Lux's room. As he entered her room, I turned to the door on my left.

Y/N: Alright, let's see if you're awake, bird lady.

I then knocked on the door before clearing my throat.

Y/N: Hello, may I come in?

Despite the reinforced blast door being in the way, I was barely able to hear a yelp from the other side of the door, followed by the sound of something falling onto the floor.

Oh, looks like she's awake, but what in First Star's name is she doing in there?!

After opening the door, I rushed in and looked around for the bird lady, only to find her in a heap on the floor next to her bed.

"Bird Lady": Ow.

Y/N: Are you okay? Here, let me -.

Suddenly, three feather daggers flew toward me. I barely ducked in the nick of time as the three feather daggers flew past me and embedded themselves in the wall behind me.

WOOSH!

Y/N: Woah! Hey, take it easy there!

"Bird Lady": Who the fuck are you, and where the fuck am I?!

I took a moment to catch my breath before answering her questions.

Y/N: My name is Y/N. I'm a simple hermit. You're in my home right now, where I've been tending to your -.

"Bird Lady": Cool, I don't care. Now, help me get up.

Short-tempered, like Syndra, I see. Well, I see we're off to a great start. Not.

Despite feeling annoyed at being interrupted, I decided to just push aside my thoughts for now and comply with her request. Grabbing her good arm, I pulled her up before setting her back on her bed.
