The team is at the Netherbane tavern discussing the location where one of the crystals is

Kane: So if everything the frog said is true, then the Piglin King has one of the crystals, We'll go to his castle grab it and go. This quest is easy since we know the place in and out any questions?

Aya raised her hands and asked Kane a question

Aya: Why did the Empire and the Piglin Kingdom have a separate leader respectively? I thought that skeleton already united all of them under a single banner

Kane: The faction (the piglins) is independent, they run supplies for the Nether King

Ceris: And for what reason do they run supplies for the King?

Kane: They do it in exchange for protection, we might even have to deal with those along the way

Rain: So if the Piglin Kingdom falls this would take a toll on the enemies supply lines which could slow them down, right?

Kane: Exactly Rain, any questions?

Aya raises her hand and asks something

Aya: Can we also go with you?

Ciara: Sorry but you can't go with us this time

Ceris: I and Rain talked with this a few days ago, we'll have training just the two of us

Rain: You have a lot of potential that is needed to be honed more since you showed those abilities to Ceris the last time

Aya: I understand

Then all of a sudden, Ciara raised her hand

Kane: What do you propose this time Ciara?

Ciara: I have a favor to ask you, Let me take on the Piglin King

Kane: Hold up, Ciara we've talked about this befor-

Ciara: Sorry but I have made up my mind, I am going to end have I started, This isn't just about the main objective of the quest. This is between us (Netherbane) and the Piglins

Aya tries to intervene to stop the two of them arguing but Stella stops her telling her to let them settle the argument by theirselves

Kane: But you already died once doing that!

Ciara: Well who gives a fuck now? We're undead we can die to our hearts content, Without her he has no one run unto for help, this time he won't get away

While Ciara mentions the Nether Princess, Rain's eyes widened,

A week later, after her training session, Aya is in her room wondering about the fate of The Grand Sorceress, while praying that she wasn't one of the casualties on the massacre that Stella mentioned earlier, then all of a sudden she heard something drop on her floor, she stands up on her bed and immediately looks around the window if some child threw it randomly, but there's no one standing outside of her window, then she turns around to see a stone wrapped in paper so she picked it up and remove the ribbon tied to the stone and she saw something written, Aya reads it and it's along the lines of: "PLEASE HELP ME, I'M STUCK IN THE LUSH CAVES, PLEASE, CERIS"
-GWEN

Aya was shocked that the writer of the letter was The Grand Sorceress herself, requesting for help. The very next day, Aya brought the letter with her and immediately rushed to go to the Glacierford where Ceris is, seeing the four enter off the Nether Portal for the quest

Ceris was standing at the portal as soon as she is going to go home now, then suddenly

Aya: Milady, Milady! there is something urgent that you need to read

Ceris turned around and saw her running towards her and asked her

Ceris: What's the matter Aya? What brings you here?

Aya: Milady, there is something that you need to see right now as in right in this moment

Ceris: Let me see it, Aya

Then Aya shows the letter to her and it left Ceris shocked and confused

Ceris: Where did you get this letter Aya?

Aya: It just only dropped out of thin air in room last night,

Ceris: It must've been one of her teleportation magic spells

Aya: Shall we show this letter to Lord Patrick so we could find her?

Ceris drags Aya by the hand, implying that they will be going to the castle for  Lord Patrick's permission

The two arrive at Patrick's quarters and Ceris shows the letter to him and he was shocked. He himself thought that the entirety of the Coven was wiped out after a Pyromancer singlehandedly massacred the village in the Mystic Forest a few weeks prior

Patrick: Are sure that is their leader writing that letter Lady Ceris? Since there are people who impersonate those types of people

Ceris: I am absolutely sure that she is the one who wrote that, I have a separate letter in which she wrote this as well 

Patrick: So, what is your next move now?

Aya: Uhh, excuse me but.....Lady Ceris and I decided that the two of us  search her in the Lush Caves

Ceris: I haven't gone to the place before

Patrick: The Lush Cave is huge and if I'm not mistaken, there are rumors that an Undead warlord resides there ever since their leader, Herobrine was killed at your hands you two should be careful this time, and Lady Ceris, don't let Aya be in harms way and also to you young lady, used what have you learned from her up until now, understood?

Aya and Ceris: We understood

Patrick: Then I wish the two of you the best

Ceris and Aya leaves the room and starts to prepare for the search

Much while later Patrick sees the two off for the search.
Before leaving Patrick gave something to Ceris in case something happens

Aya: Ceris, Let's begin

Ceris nods and they leave
