Hera: Well if you need anything, don't hesitate to call me. Truly, Artemis, my doors are always open for you.

Artemis: *Smile* Thank you Hera. I'll be sure to remember that. Your kindness is greatly appreciated.

The two goddesses finished with all their talks and conversations, they stood gracefully from their seats, their movements carrying a quiet elegance. As their hands clasped in a firm yet respectful handshake, there was a subtle exchange of understanding and camaraderie between them.

Hera: Europa, please escort-

Artemis: There's no need. Lante and I can find our way out. I wouldn't want to impose further.

She said as she raised a hand stopping Hera.

Hera: Are you sure? It wouldn't be any trouble at all.

Artemis: *Smile* Yes, truly. Thank you though, for the thought.

She then turned to Lante, nodding towards her vice captain as she said-

Artemis: Come on, Lante, let's go.

The elf, ever composed, stepped forward and bowed respectfully toward Hera and Europa, her movements precise and filled with grace.

Lante: Thank you for your hospitality.

With that, she turned to follow Artemis, her measured steps echoing lightly as they left the room together, leaving behind an air of quiet respect.

When the two were out of sight, Hera's gaze lingered on the door for a moment before she turned to Europa, her face tinged with a deep concern that softened her usual composure.

Hera: *Sighs* To lose everything like that... I can only imagine what she's going through. It must feel like the world itself has turned its back on her.

Europa: That's something no one deserves.

Her hands tightened slightly at her sides, as though holding back her own feelings.

Meanwhile as Artemis and Lante stepped out of the manor, they began to walk towards the gate when they heard a voice firmly speaking a distance away.

Alfia: And it's important to note that the longer the chant of the magic, the stronger it's effects. But of course it's also important to remember that the longer the chant, the higher chance for you to lose focus. Do you two understand?

Bell: *Smile* Yes!

Alfia: Mhm good.

A faint smile tugged at Alfia's lips as she listened to Bell's words, a rare softness in her expression. However, the moment her gaze shifted to Haruhime, the smile faded, her features returning to their usual calm, unreadable demeanor.

Alfia: I said do you understand?

Haruhime: Y-Yes!

Artemis and Lante watched the exchange before they headed out the gate and walked away.
