Once going to the city of Guaral to rest for most of the fighters, Vincent took this opportunity to gather some of the important people that participating in the biggest battle to take Vollachia back from multiple outside parties.

The people in one of the homes that Vincent had gathered was his nine divine generals, his Prime Minister, his stargazer, Natsuki Subaru, Sora, Cloud, Halibel, Crusch Karsten, Priscilla Barielle, Al, Felt, Reinhard van Astrea, Julius Juukulius, Roswaal L Mathers, and Emilia.

Beatrice, Louis Arneb, Zarestia, and Shaula only joined in due to them wanting to be with either Sora or Subaru.

Vincent waited a moment before starting the meeting among the important people:

"Now that we are all gathered, let's discuss the aftermath of the previous battle. The capital had taken damage enough to where we will need to rebuild it from the ground up."

"That...is my fault. Apologies." Cloud said as he bowed his head towards the Emperor of Vollachia. "Had I been able to take Sephiroth down earlier, the city wouldn't have been destroyed."

Vincent raised his hand, indicating that he wants Cloud to raise his head up.

"It would've been fortunate if that had happened, however the results aren't the worst they could be. The fallen angel had been defeated as was the requirements to take back my empire."

"Unfortunately, my liege, it seems that a few of those Organization members had escaped." Goz added. This was something Sora was unsatisfied when hearing since he knows that he could've defeated Xehanort had he really given it his all.

"Don't feel bad, I also feel like it's my fault that the old man escaped." Subaru added, noticing that his master and best friend was feeling a bit guilty by Xehanort's escape.

Sora looked at him for a moment before nodding at his apprentice and best friend.

Vincent had noticed this, prompting him to look at everyone with a serious expression:

"That is disappointing to hear, however we must see what was accomplished." He paused for a moment before turning towards Zarestia. "The Great Spirit of Murder, also known as Zarestia. You managed to defeat one of the Organization. And for that, you must be commended. What do you wish for?"

Zarestia was silent as she was singled out by the Emperor.

At first, she had nothing in mind since she had her sphere back.

Which under normal circumstances, she would have such murder intends that she would need to be in isolation.

However, having spent enough time with everyone, she's gained some control over those murderous intend.

"Hm...? I would wish to kill you all—" Most of the divine generals were not appreciating this kind of response while Vincent was a bit intrigued by how she was phrasing this. "—but since that's not something I can realistically do without a fight, then I would only wish to be contracted to the Keyblade Master."

"...What?" Both keyblade wielders said this in unison with a similar confused tone.

They turned towards Zarestia as she was looking straight towards Sora with a smile on her face.

Vincent sat back down as he tilted his head, intrigued by the request from the Great Spirit of Murder:

"That is something that's between you two. Though I'm curious; Keyblade Master, do you accept being in a contract with the Great Spirit of Murder?"

Sora was put in the spotlight with everyone turning towards his direction.

The Keyblade Master felt no pressure from this though he was thinking on the matter.
