Lo! 'tis a gala night
Within the lonesome latter years!
An angel throng, bewinged, bedight
In veils, and drowned in tears,
Sit in a theatre, to see
A play of hopes and fears,
While the orchestra breathes fitfully
The music of the spheres.

Yuuji, darling, I apologize for the delay, but may I extend an invitation to you and your lovelly daughter to dine with me?
At your leisure, of course, but I know many of my household would be pleased to see you both.

My poor
blade. Even flawed, as you are, you come back to me thinking only of our family...
I have missed you, dearest.
Walter is coming along quite well, and has an admirable job of covering your duties in your absence but he is not you, however.
As I am mortal, so are all of my children, including you, thus I do not wish to put you in harms way, but I can not create more children for you to delegate to.
My power is so limited like this....I am sorry, dear hart, that we cannot return home just yet. When I have regained myself, things will be as they were, and our family will be whole once again.
Well, enough of that.
Rangiku is back where she belongs, and so now you must show your Brother Angel how to open gates, and raise the power necessary for all of our survival.
Ah, and despite what your mother may wish, I want you only to check on your Brother Serpent. I know you are angry with Hellsing, and their pet vampires, but it would not do to have you injured before you could recover your helm.
Go, now. I will see with your eyes, and know all that you do.

You are troubled by the Executioner's return, are you not?
Fear not, my Inger, your duties will shift with his return, but not , perhaps, the way you may fear.
The Executioner will take on the role of Gaurdian for Alessa, Rangiku, and Hotaru. That is no longer your first priority.
Instead, I have commanded him to show you how to more efficiently open gates, and raise power.
We spoke of this prior to my sebatical, but with the loss of Henry, and the arrival of my daughter, it is far more important that...certain plans...are not neglected.
Where he failed, you shall succeed. He is too far gone to reason for himself. When I was stronger, this was not an issue, but I can no longer trust him to carry out his duties.
