Later in the early morning I woke up to someone knocking on my door. "Coming, Coming... Oh Aphmeow" I opened the door and stood there waiting for what she's going to say. "Oh Did I wake you up Mei? Sorry..." She look at me apologetically 'I must look like a train wreck.' I thought to myself "No its okay, what do you need?" I asked signaling for her to come in. "Oh there's no need, I just came to tell you that we will be leaving for Phoenix Drop in a few minutes" I smiled and thanked her before getting my items. "Oh right Silver Hasn't come back yet..." I remembered while packing my items in my inventory and the rest in my satchel. "What to do, what to do..." I mumble to myself whilst going to the docks where Aphmau did a "Great" job parking it. "You ready Mei?" she asked "Mhm yeah I'm ready to go" I said letting her carry me in a golden lasso once again towards Phoenix Drop.

"Welcome back Mei, Aphmau" Greeted Garroth as Aph let me out of her lasso. "Hello Garroth!" smiled Aph, 'I really do wonder where she gets all her energy from, especially after just delivering a corpse to their family...' I thought as I smiled at Garroth softly "Hello sir Garroth, I'll be back on patrol later, right now I'd like to rest for a bit" I told the man as he looked at me "Of course lady Mei" "Don't worry Mei its ok!" Smiled Aph as she tried to comfort me. As I left the two be I went and talked to Emmalyn. "Hi Emm's" I greeted the blonde "Hey Mei what's up? Why do you look so pale?" I smile at her. "It's Nothing Emm's I'm just a bit tired... Mind if I stay a while?" I ask her sitting down on one of the bed's "Sure if it's you I got no problem with it!" 'She must still be mad at Aphmau...' I thought as she took one of her books and started writing things. "What's your recent research topic Emm's?" I asked wanting to engage in a conversation. "Oh I'm currently learning about beast tribes, you know since you're a Meif'wa and all?" I look up at her from the bed that I was lying down comfortably in. "Hm... What info have you collected?" I asked a bit interested. "Oh well the studies I know of say that one of the divine warriors stationed in Tu'La" I looked shocked but remembered 'Right Menfia, the divine warrior of fury.' I smile and laid back down in a comfy position. "Well tell me what you find when I wake up." I said as I dozed off.

"Thank Emm's!" I said as I left the library-house. "Oh! Hello miss Mei!" I looked around to find Molly. "Hello Molly! What do you need this fine afternoon" I smile only to notice a ring on her hand. "Oh. My. God." I stare at Molly shocked. "Hehehe! Yes! Aphmau just got me married with Dale!" she smiled brightly. 'Ohhh Aph's gonna start the population boom!' "Oh that's so great Molly!! I'm so happy for you!!" I smiled as I hugged her. "Not to be rude or anything... but why Dale?" I asked, to be honest Dale was not one of the most handsome guy out there... "Hm? Well there's just something with him, and when Lord Aphmau came there was just this spark! And boom! We're married now!" 'Wait what. They just fell in love because of Aph?' "Oh. Well as long as you love him then I'm happy for you guys!" I smile. "Then I guess I have to congratulate Dale as well then huh?" I look at the man a few ways ahead of me. "Yeah! Thanks so much for your support Mei!" I left her. "YO DALE!" I yelled to the man. "CONGRATS!!!" I lift him into a hug. "You sly, sly man! Getting with Molly?!?!!? I didn't know you had it with you!" I let him go and pat his back. "Ahahaha Mei! Honestly, I wouldn't have done it without Aphmau's help!" 'Okay now it's getting weird... does that mean she can just match make me?!?!' I thought of the possibilities before hearing someone call for us.

"Mei! Dale! I need your help!" Yelled Zenix?! "What happened!?" Dale asked. "It's Brendan we've been attacked!" he explained dragging Brendan from behind him. "Dale! Help me bring Brendan to his house! Zenix get Garroth and Kiki!" I ordered them. As we reached to his house I tried to disinfect the wound as best as I could, knowing that if I take out the arrow the poison it was coated with might spread. "Mei! Where's Brendan" I hear Kiki burst into the house. "He's asleep Kiki but... He's in critical condition... I'm sure you can sense the magic that's coated on the arrow too?" I assumed as Kiki has always been good with sensing magic, at least that's what her character wiki says. Just then I hear Aphmau open the door. 'Right... This happened in one of her episodes...' I thought as she went up to Garroth. "By the umbral hells! Brendan has been attacked and he's in terrible shape... The arrow pierced his chest and we have no idea where the bleeding is coming from. Aphmau your help is required, we need to get Brendan a special herb from Bright Port I've already sent word to Paul via Raven, there should be a doctor waiting for you. Please get this herb before sundown or... I don't know if we'll be able to save him..." 'Sheesh he talks so... long. Long he talks so long.' I thought before Aphmau left in a hurry they went back just as quick. As Aphmau got the medicine Garroth handed it to me. "Please Mei... You're our best chance at this." He said, 'I don't know what you're thinking man because honestly I only know these facts cause of tiktok.' I thought as I patched Brendan up as best I could. "Will my brother be okay Mei?" I heard Kiki ask me. "Time will tell Kiki, for now thank Garroth for contacting Dr. Doctor about the herbs, and Aphmeow for taking the time to fetch them for us." I looked up at the girl and smiled. As I talked to her I see Zenix talking with Aph. 'Why that cheat!' I thought slightly clenching my fists.
