Lorio and Philia are sitting around a fire and jump up when they see us come out.

"Oh I'm so glad to see you." Philia says taking Minnie's hand briefly. Lorio comes over and hits my shoulder.

"So what was it like. Was there a fight? What happened?" he says. Minnie and I look at each other then laugh a little.

"I did fight a giant millipede." I say laughing.

"Then what happened?" Philia says and I shake my head.

"Oh lots of stuff. But I was safe the entire time at least. Let's go now. Holland told me everything that's happened since I've been here."

"Right. We must go." she says looking between the two of us. Lorio leans close to say something but I just shake my head. Whatever he has to say wouldn't be good right now. We gather together and go to the edge of Lucio.

"Oh. We came here first?" Minnie asks. I was the one who lead the teleportation this time.

"Yes. We need to tell her first." I say and grab Lorio. Taking his and my crowns off.

Be careful with the Queen. She likes to flirt. Remain proper.

I think and he nods. We go in and Camellia is waiting in this nice red dress with some feathering. All of us pause. She stops admiring herself and the mirror when she notices us and turns.

"Oh you're back. Good. Everyone is assembled. She says.

"I haven't seen that dress before mother. Is that really appropriate to wear into battle?"

"Of course it is darling. This is made of titanium spelled material. The red is so the blood can blend in." she says and I just look at Lorio. He looks at me and I just shrug.
