' . In The Absence Of Her Mother, The Belobog Cadet School Had Been Kind To Her. She Had Great Friends

She had great friends like Lynxy and Serval as well as people that cared about her like Eros. But she was definitely TOO used to putting all of the hardships on her own shoulders. It was indeed the logical conclusion that two people entering a warzone was far more beneficial than just one. Yet somehow, she couldn't help but give Eros the slightest blink of shock. It wasn't exactly her obligation after all. She wasn't part of the Silvermane Guards. By all accounts, she was just an ORDINARY CITIZEN of Belobog. Even more, she was an Underworlder that should have held hostility towards Overworlders such as the Intelligence Officer.

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤLuckily, she knew exactly where the soldiers would be located. SHE was the one that formulated their battle plans after all. It doesn't take long for the two of them to arrive at their destination.

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤWhen they got to their destination, it seemed like the soldiers stationed there had already been FORCED to make a decision. Most of them had already abandoned their posts with a few still remaining to carry off the injured.

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤThe girl moves quickly; perhaps a little TOO quickly as she rushes towards a soldier's side. Though her frame and height were far more petite than the grown man's; she still attempts to sling him over her tiny shoulders without much success.

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤ❛ㅤEros, can you please help me with this ? I'm pretty sure this is the LAST soldier. I hope it is.ㅤ❜

Eros of course knew how tough it could be. To be a child who felt the very weight of your people on your shoulders. That even if you did what you felt best, there were still going to be times when it all came crashing down. When the tower would fall and people would get hurt. But she knew, too, that the people of the Guard at least wouldn't hold mistakes against Pela. That was something she was glad for the younger girl. That the people of Belobog were kinder than those of the Preceptors the former High Elder had once had to deal with.

"Here-- let me come with ya, hon."

She would get up more on instinct than anything. A want to keep close just in case. Not that there should be any more danger but- perhaps it was her own maternal instincts kicking in. That even with the wound tended to, she was worried about Pela.

"Whatever decision y'make, I'll do what I c'n t' help. I know I ain't- technically on retainer or nothin', but still. I wanna help however I c'n do that."

The bat certainly possessed MORE WEIGHT than his usual mop. All of his mop's weight was at the very topㅤ—ㅤand if it weren't for his ice powers, the thing would have been significantly LESS useful.

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤ❛ㅤI think the baseball bat feels GOOD ! It might take a bit of getting used toㅤ—ㅤbut it definitely feels a lot stronger than my mop !ㅤ❜

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤStill, as he holds onto the Trailblazer's precious baseball bat, there was one thing that he was CLEARLY concerned about. Even if Mister Akio was a GROWN ADULT that was more than capable of protecting himself, this was still HIS bat.

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤ❛ㅤWhat are you going to use until you FIND something else, Mister Akio ?ㅤ❜

Misha's determination and excitement was enough to put a smile on anyone's face, and Akio was no different. It's heartwarming to have such a young soul filled with joy and so eager for adventure. He makes a terrific trailblazer alright!

"Oh, the trials thing... I've just seen it in a movie once. And as for a weapon... I think you could use something sturdier." In a moment, his signature baseball bat appears in his hand, which he then hands to Misha.

"Try this for now. At least this won't break as easily." At least, he thinks so. He never tried to test the limit of this random bat he picked up from the space station. "We can also be on the lookout for something else you can use."

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤ𝑾𝑨𝑰𝑻. He has to be mean about this.

"Wuh--Misha. Oh, well, that's...very unsurprising. We did only meet...rarely." That and Misha refused to understand him, it seemed.
