Loki was very stressed and quite unhappy as she spoke with Finn who was sitting behind his desk "what do you mean we can't leave Orario! why!?".

Finn sighed and then shrugged "it was a direct order from the Guild, it came for lord Ouranos himself too so we can't really disobey though he hasn't informed anyone of the reasons as to why this order was issued".

Loki frowned not liking what she was hearing, the fact that Ouranos was the one who issued the order to not leave Orario meant that whatever is going most be pretty serious "but what about the Quest on the docks?".

Finn shook his head and shrugged "it's going to have go wait until the order is rescinded".

Loki sighed and scratch her head in frustration, she really wanted to see her girls in bathing suits but it seems like that's a dream that won't become a reality anytime soon, but then she stopped what she was doing and stared seriously towards Finn "do you think Rean has something to do with this?".

Finn closed his eyes "it seems like it, there's a few reports of a few people watching him leave Orario early in the morning some days ago but no one is sure, the Hestia Familia isn't talking either".

Loki crossed her arms "tch! that annoying shorty... what about the girls?".

Finn shook his head "they aren't talking either... in fact they been spending a lot of time with the Hestia Familia too".

Loki frowned not liking what she was hearing but she was also very aware that she can't cause problems with the Hestia Familia either, not only would her girls hate her for that but that might also bring Rean's attention to her and her Familia and that's something she doesn't want at all.

Asfi was sitting in front of us while she gave me, Artemis and Ryuu a report of what's been going on inside one of the tents they set up "things are only getting worse... whatever is causing everything to die is slowly spreading out along with the monsters that seem to just multiple non stop, the neighboring towns have already been wiped out...".

Artemis sadly frowned while Ryuu narrowed her eyes "what about your efforts to reach the ruins?".

Asfi shook her head "failing... we haven't been able to even reach past the doorway".

I sighed knowing that more than likely they have been failing to make any process because Hermes's Falna is gone "there's a doorway?".

Asfi nodded "yes and it the only thing stopping us to from reaching the monster known as Antares, we can't even open the door...".

Asfi then sighed and shook her head "in any case this area is safe but the corruption can reach at anytime, we've been using it as a base camp to launch our attacks... why don't you rest up here for a while, there's a spring not far from here where you can clean up and refresh yourselves".

Ryu and Artemis nodded and Asfi lead them to the spring while I stay behind, not wanting to wait inside this tent I stepped out and headed towards where Lugia was roosting to rest.

She immediately sensed me as I got closer to her and turned her head towards me, I smiled at her and as soon as I reached her, she leaned her head towards me and I immediately began to rub her chin "hey girl".

Lugia softly let out one of her melodious growl and I couldn't help but to smile at her "were fine, you know that attack was no where near powerful enough to even crack your Protect much less hurt me and Ryuu and we would have protected Artemis".

Lugia nodded but then a voice caught my attention "you would have protected me?".

I turned around and saw Artemis standing a fair distance away from me, she seemed so sad and tired right now "of course I would Artemis".
