[She should have known something was wrong. She should have known Luceti would be cruel. She should have known this wasn't the end, and the worst thing to happen would be her worst fear. But you just don't know what will happen in this place, or any for that matter. Fate deals a cruel hand, and one must live with what they are dealt

Footsteps? Ammy tries to lift her head to see who it is, but it soon falls back to the ground.]

When she sees Asch, the little poncle wipes her eyes and bounds over to him, but not too far from the fallen wolf.]
Asch! Asch, please, help!! M-Mother Amaterasu--she...she's...! [Her words get cut off by a worried squeak and tiny sobs. This is just the worst thing that could have ever happened, and Miya was scared.]

The Day of Darkness only happens once every hundred years back home and-- [Miyabi catches the wolf's nod, and though she can't read her mind, or understand her like other animals, she's been able to catch up on most of Ammy's physical gestures and what they mean.

We need a place to take her.

As soon as Asch crouches down to get the wolf on his shoulders, Miyabi's right there, bounding up and catching a bit of Ammy's tail and crawling up to reposition herself on the wolf's hind leg.]
