[uncharacteristic steely anger in his voice]This may not be Aquavitae but this place has been my home for a while now. I'm not afraid of that thing and I'm not going to let it hurt any more people

Okay... I won't leave the Arena, I promise. I'll do my best to help everyone.

[thieveryofstars]

Thank you, Cassu. Knowing you're safe makes this easier. Aligoté said he'll be in the Arena too, so try not to get separated from him once you're there.

[kisses her]

Don't worry. We'll be fine.

[turquoisebat]

Yeah, I'll look for him, then.

[returns it, hugs him tightly]

O-Okay... Please be careful... Both of you.

[thieveryofstars]

Hey...

[hugs her back]

I have good reasons to come back, remember? I said... I wouldn't leave you. I intend to keep that promise.

[pulls away, serious but kind]

Now let's get you safely to the Arena.

[small smile, those words make her feel a bit better] I'm glad... Okay, let's.
