The city hadn't changed much, thought Lloyd as he passed through the Tethe'allan capital of Meltokio. Along the way to his friend Zelos' mansion, the boy had made a few stops for holiday gifts.

Colette wasn't that far behind Lloyd, actually. After resting for an hour or so, the Chosen had managed to fly all the way to Melokio with a few bags in her hands. Their weight had done little to deter her with the power of angel strength on her side, but even now long flights tired her out. It was by some miracle she'd managed to fly the distance without collapsing.

What a relief it was when her feet finally hit the ground! Mindful that most citizens weren't used to seeing someone with wings, she landed outside the city gates and rushed to knock on the Wilder mansion's door.

"Look! I brought the presents." Proudly presenting her bags, Colette went over and placed them right next to Lloyd.

Looks like you did, too!" Of course, he had worried about her a little bit, and he was relieved that she had made the trip without tiring herself out. It must have taken tons of energy to fly all that way, after all.

Lloyd grinned at the bags she had sat down. "I guess you got a bit more than just a plushie." He inspected one of them and playfully added, "I wonder which one has mine in it...!"
