Siesta was blown away by what she was seeing. A white clean world with strange tasting air unlike anything she was used to. Regardless, she stepped onto a strange large platform with her dearest friends. Then it shook before sinking down, making her grab onto Dove.

Dove: “You’ll get used to it.”

Siesta: “The air too?”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKViWZY44b9

Dove: “Eventually.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhw58bIAo23

Flamma: “I have to admit Tech, even I’m blown away by this.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBF75ogthwP
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2H6KzLkfz5
Tech: “This is nothing. I’ve upgraded things while Dove was away.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Xvcd8VB4H
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhmJScFpph
Dove: “Raskreia did mention something but didn’t want to ruin the surprise.”

Once the platform was deep enough, two sets of steel doors closed over head. Then the door before them opened revealing a very large room.

122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOVMMZh1TJ
All around, the group saw things being moved about by metal arms moving on their own. Little metal golems flew about, fiddling and carrying things around the complex.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2jdz0QwZX
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbrObjUp56
To everyone but Dove, it was strange and alien.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡit1CQRrg9W
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30LnZIDTAv
Dove: “You sure you’re not a Dwemer?”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1M5RzyJBNd
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQa5zCs1vSN
Tech: “Really? They had stuff like this?”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tv3zk6SxT
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡla78HDLBte

122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRa24n9XY8B

Tech: “Interesting, shame I can’t meet them.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kSuwRWwvn
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrur51OW15s
Siesta: “T-Tech, what is all of this?”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xCeA1TGva
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMe0lhnhVn
Tech: “This…is the power of science. Something magic can’t replicate.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdX0HMn08DH
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPbaZv7rXk
Flamma: “Flying autonomous Golems Tech, not that impressive. Your speed in making them is, but still.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTzH5j1BT6
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbHNsMHngX

122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKv8U7OZRa
After saying his piece, Tech made his way over to an another platform and spread out his arms, waiting. After a second, hands and arms came out and aided in removing his armor then reassembling it on a nearby rack. They then gave him back his goggles and headphone before he came back down. But something was off, he was a little…pale.

122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSasn72KUS6
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0vIb1mb76
Tech: “Like I said before, I rather not rely on magic to help me. But…for small stuff maybe I’ll make an exception. But enough about my health, I want to show you your rooms.”

Tech led the group to another lift which took them to another room above. Not as large as the last but it was more organized, something like a dorm room.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGoVzOPkmqx
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1qbTkMoVG

Dove opened the closest door and to her surprise, it had a medieval style design. Not quite the Nord design she’s used to but it’s better than everything else here.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpVmq2JE0u
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMtcRCCjzt

She says as she looks around the well-designed room. A room fit for a noble…
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJ6ydS8pUS

Everyone stopped what they were doing and their eyes widen.

Siesta: “Why Flamma?”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt62kKSMpS9
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRywNCSAzN
Flamma: “Don’t get me wrong, I like the design and will visit. But…I don’t want to leave Louise alone.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGVpICa4Ft
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFksaguQC9K

122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPa2gNCnJY
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4pbCPqU4O
Dove: “Does this have something to do with why you decided to be Louise’s familiar?”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbBgvG3VEl
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YA5kfWb5b
Tech: “And getting branded like an animal, I might add.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4d3SJnplrA
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUL2kf6B6pu
Flamma looked at them and wondered if she should reveal what she felt. Would they use Louise and abuse her potential? After a moment, the answer was clear to see.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52B0obQXfj
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCrzFfVnuo
Tech is too proud to do it, Dove has no need of it and Siesta is too sweet. But how much to tell, that’s the question.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSnd2f861i
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeq4LXIhHD6
Flamma: “Yeah, I’ll explain if you’re sure this place is secure.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5AYEoVmUxf
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJ7cIaEH53
Tech: “Trust me when I say, there is no safer place on this planet. So, what’s so special about the girl? Besides her admittedly impressive summoning ability.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWWuMhxyKa
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBB5K6mnN9
Flamma: “Do any of you know of Void Magic?”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPsdJMRuc7
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtowYVOeRi
Dove: “Unless it has something to do with Sithis or Namira, gods forbid, then no.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhB3fvp6BM
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NcxWVb7ED
Tech: “It’s magic so no.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJspJY1qZ8S

Flamma: “You know, don’t you?”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6bLhYpZDz

Siesta: “N-Not much but I’ve heard that it’s the lost fifth element, far more powerful than the rest and related to the Founder Brimir. Are you saying-”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7Txhz9c0M
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJybl17TSPh
Flamma: “Yes, Louise has Void Magic but it’s more than that. The power I sensed within her is…incredible. It’s may even surpass my power.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoC29Q2PMeT
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqykPTo43O
Dove: “Y-You’re surely joking.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ON6ms90nD

122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡge4EYAQuKP
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Dm9w790dC
Flamma: “She can be. That’s why I must stay with her. To protect her from people who may deceive and use her.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSBIDAYWRy
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6T2SRK9jP

Tech hands the three of them a steel rod with a blue slit down the center.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk17eDsRAV7
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWchZVPdxXu
Dove: “I’d rather a sword.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Bq4Vsx10i
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdxmVM9hDs
Before Flamma can quip herself, a thin sheet of harden light shot out from the side of the rod.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCd1dfUCKk
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHvvBAeePi
Tech: “Information is the most powerful tool at our disposal, don’t waste it.”

Dove: “Why give us all of this information?”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCrTFefzmb
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVhuIF7Fwj

He winks before leaving for his own room to recover for the day. Meanwhile, the maid trio looked down at their data pads.

Siesta: “How do we use this?”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUhyz9eD9Z
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPIsaXvScc
Unbeknownst to everyone in Tech’s base, something had slithered in. A snake on a mission. But even Aeron had to admit that the place was well secured and impressive.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFhyJNfQQv
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj61PS8HJhM
But it’s magical defenses were lacking and made it easier than expected to invade. At first, he was going to get in, kill Tech, and get out. But he lucked out and heard some interesting information about Louise.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4rQNxmCHra
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVY36Q8C2ru
Aeron: ‘Her value just went up. If I’m lucky, I may even be able to steal this Void Magic for myself. But first…’
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMF1yhRHWS
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6A4z5fO3D
Aeron made sure to follow Tech to his room. The room was the cleanest he’s ever seen and was covered in soft shades of white and blue. Tech went to a strange capsule and taped on a panel with bumps. The capsule opened and Aeron saw his chance. While in his invisible snake form, he used a modified Ray of Sickness on Tech.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGrQa7VmNx
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKL6xADxNeV
Tech slumbed forward a bit but catching himself. He shook his head before regaining his footing.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSUAkn2lSs
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJUS6LTZZS
Tech: “Whoa, I might need this more than I thought.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMgrBwdzos
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRnewr3JZO
Aeron: ‘That’s one threat dealt with.’
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCJt1x8eoT
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzbL5eQTVZ
Aeron slithered away with a smile while Tech got into the capsule. The poison was made slow but this way, no foul play would be suspected. Tech is sickly after all.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiAuFRepWOI
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcClrhQdfGV
Thanks to a small A.I sphere named NAVI that emerged from the data pad, the maid trio learned much more about the world of Tech. And it was…a lot to process.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jIapH3tg0
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjAjZ4inx2
Siesta: “Tech’s world is scary…”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaEDolaUen
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbbKqcewvR
Flamma: “I’m more surprised that Tech was sick like this his whole life. For him to then spit in destiny’s face and still succeed at life is badass. Even becoming whatever a CEO of Innovation Industries is sounds impressive.”

Dove: “The way they wage war doesn’t bother you?”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzq9QM52Fjd
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKUC2YT1gh
Flamma: “A bit, but I doubt Tech can bring all of that to bear. Besides, you fought that Ravager and these things are comparable. I’m not worried.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdoaOhFJzv
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAsvLyvAIe
Dove: ‘I wouldn’t want to fight hundreds of them though.’
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhayQerTuJz
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6Jppv57En
As for Siesta, she couldn’t help but feel some dread. This world was already so terrible to commoners like her. But after learning about Tech’s world, the world became so much more dangerous.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTtPnc2pz9
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRRERrCO8r
What if more like Tech came here and weren’t as nice as him? What would happen to her and her friends? What if one of the nobles got a hold of this power?
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYm8hczmZGl
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3loj5ldQh
So many scenarios raced through her mind and it only worsen her feelings of helplessness. She trusted her dear friends but…

Raskreia just wanted to enjoy some food while waiting for Flamma but Jake thought she was avoiding her job. Like doing a favor was some job she had to perform. The nerve of him!

Raskreia: “Finally, hey Flam-”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRbEALBTfK
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkl93vdKAet
Raskreia got up and ran to the duo while waving her hands. But something flashed in the corner of her vision. By instinct, she raised her finger and used Fire Bolt on whatever she sensed.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSkqD2Y798
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9wNDgdHoZ
When the flaming bullet hit the grass, everyone looked at Raskreia with a mix of confusion and outrage.

Jake came up from behind and unlike everyone, he could see the snake making his escape.

Jake: ‘If she won’t help me, why should I?’

Jake jumps over the school walls and disappears into the coming night.

Raskreia: “Such a troublesome kid. Makes me wonder what made him this way. Sorry, everyone, maybe I made mistake. False alarm.”

Zander: “Are you sure?”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaoUP6Faule

Raskreia: “Yep. But enough of my blunder, Flamma, got a moment to talk?”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwW4zXGxcKl

Flamma: “I’m on my way to Louise, we’ll talk on the way. See you tomorrow Siesta.”

Raskreia and Flamma proceeded to leave the rest of the group behind. However, despite outwardly focusing on her conversation with Flamma, she couldn’t help but think back to what she sensed before.

It was a sight that nearly drove Louise to hurl. Hanging in the air with some sort of strands keeping her afloat was her fake.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBmouzDMqp
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcy1ge4vrHa
She was a mangled mess but the pink hair made it clear who it was. She wanted to destroy this mockery to herself but her sad state…stayed her hand.

Bench: “I don’t have much time to explain but the short answer is I don’t know and it’s a long story. I have some ideas to explain the first one but they are unscientific. Right now, I just want to finish my repairs for today. I already wasted a day trying to get the local clinic to work for me and then transforming this shack into something manageable.”

With nothing more to say, Louise leaves the transformed shack confused and dejected. What was really distressing was the pulling feeling she got when around her fake. As if she was being sucked into a whirlpool.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kHA9eRLYe
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8vFSRvl6n
The thought of giving into the sensation…terrifiedher. She wanted…no…needed to escape this feeling.

But instead of the dark star, the sun instead appeared before her.

Louise quickly regained herself and pushed down her unexpected excitement.

Raskreia: “Oh, she got it bad huh? Understandable.”

She whispers into Flamma’s ear.

122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWMBnKy7is
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AwWLA9xgI
Louise: “I-I-I know. It’s only natural for a familiar to be there for their master. Now, why is she is here? Is she ready to become my familiar too?”

Raskreia: “Buy me dinner first and maybe I’ll think about it.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9lE5cmVwn
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWRCPwXxkA
That got Louise to fume red while Flamma giggled at how adorable Louise can be.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4V98YKohU

Raskreia: “Don’t be like that kid, I was just learning more about Flamma. Congrats by the way.”

In the shadows of the night, Aeron was collecting himself after his brush with failure. He wasn’t scared of a fight but he’s unsure if he could win if he was revealed at that moment.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlWfyyULHV
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNFppwOafD
Raskeria alone may be his equal. That’s not even counting Zander and Flamma. But Jake is interesting…
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6VLiEPk5u
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOx742PcTM6
Aeron: ‘He noticed but didn’t do anything, interesting. Maybe he could be a good tool for later. Speaking of tools…’

He needed to step his plans up. He needed Louise firmly on his side and maybe another pawn in this game if he is to survive and win. He can’t afford to be caught now.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwusj9TClr

Luckily for him, the pieces were already in place.

Guiche is probably bitter about his lose, a perfect mind to send over the edge.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOfG5PnADK

Siesta was alone and vulnerable, a useful pawn and possible ally depending on how he pulls this off.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHKGgPkKFF
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgkVMyJiDL
Finally, night was coming. Flamma and the other familiars should be asleep soon. It would be risky but what’s life without some form of gamble.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKn8WjPNzyR
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4QDuaXQmV
Aeron casts alter self so he looks like Siesta before making his way to Guiche.
