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.

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.

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.

To everyone but Dove, it was strange and alien.

Dove: “You sure you’re not a Dwemer?”

141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwE0rflu7Ba
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JqxlH5xnJ

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.

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.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmTH0ea2np

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.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxhiCTLJdi
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWUur24j05

Siesta: “Why Flamma?”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXP4grJeAgy

141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1leFLqorcV
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdLrAV2Ezu

141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfDR8DjKUZ
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghNUWXEHVf
Dove: “Does this have something to do with why you decided to be Louise’s familiar?”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQNHtu53lf
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByFlVG2xnF
Tech: “And getting branded like an animal, I might add.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdDilGXa37
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImxjhTkD6X
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.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8AKbR3ZLC
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3072EQQfw
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.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHWzZfEyEo
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvu3DWA8hF
Flamma: “Yeah, I’ll explain if you’re sure this place is secure.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYWMvOSCl1
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqsX9UYO6K
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.”

141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdjJ1Ub3nd
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSsmT8G5F7X
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-”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiO6OJc9kqD
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLwC5T6Kb9
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.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0GzVY0kX3
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLhgEqyOJm
Dove: “Y-You’re surely joking.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpfnnhPMET

141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78lKQv7E31
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTzmN1ICdh

Tech hands the three of them a steel rod with a blue slit down the center.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVlT9Vh1el

Dove: “I’d rather a sword.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjaRQaFsBmk
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11lGEpgYon
Before Flamma can quip herself, a thin sheet of harden light shot out from the side of the rod.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOTx1swgHL
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnT7AAQ4er
Tech: “Information is the most powerful tool at our disposal, don’t waste it.”

Dove: “Why give us all of this information?”

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?”

141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOChcweHsIL
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.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVD7KpKJCDV
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8c7j8V7yxZ
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.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3Oz0crk2k
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9I4L9DzOMZ
Aeron: ‘Her value just went up. If I’m lucky, I may even be able to steal this Void Magic for myself. But first…’
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXko2h7hlu
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKaoq45tJ0
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.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJo4AKvMjI
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDkrppmwGq
Tech slumbed forward a bit but catching himself. He shook his head before regaining his footing.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lzJleJX4L
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRiPLdhJtG
Tech: “Whoa, I might need this more than I thought.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRaXS5aX8P0

Aeron: ‘That’s one threat dealt with.’
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKKysaAtdK
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQnL85EvOv
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.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEvBoaU0jl
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKGT3P6tRD
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.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdcutacXmD
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfs8dF09Hbk
Siesta: “Tech’s world is scary…”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uTywU9O3b
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0mmgTJelL
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.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPcErqxLqi

Dove: “The way they wage war doesn’t bother you?”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1spSqWb4JX
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPImrNbRVj
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.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yEwnVHqKU
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZfrnMbb1z
Dove: ‘I wouldn’t want to fight hundreds of them though.’
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBSLtX7cp4
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoxzRM4Qm0
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.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLWlTKaicK
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnagIF6Hhu
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?
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiB0eBJnhp
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUr5d6YhMrs
So many scenarios raced through her mind and it only worsen her feelings of helplessness. She trusted her dear friends but…

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.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhpGrXQhaW
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3t9wCC2iY
When the flaming bullet hit the grass, everyone looked at Raskreia with a mix of confusion and outrage.

Zander: “Be nice Kirche, I’m sure she noticed something we didn’t.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTLKJYxaXq
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgphNqiI5H
Kirche: “Something even you couldn’t sense?”

Zander: “I leave support roles to others. So, unfortunately, I’m not that good at healing or reconnaissance.”

Jake: “That’s good to know.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3oesemHIIn
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8V9my9PMOU
Jake came up from behind and unlike everyone, he could see the snake making his escape.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYGZgI6qTE
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrglRSLCita
Jake: ‘If she won’t help me, why should I?’
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXiqLZIOdo
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVkHFvfhgw
Jake: “Rask, call me when you have a lead before start I losing it.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxzoOkw9yu
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXdWyqJ4t9
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.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fIeOtakvN
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMaAJ3KCQD
Zander: “Are you sure?”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9hWfA6r6M
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48elZ70Cqa
Raskreia: “Yep. But enough of my blunder, Flamma, got a moment to talk?”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcmxfsPja9
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBoiIOUd0M
Flamma: “I’m on my way to Louise, we’ll talk on the way. See you tomorrow Siesta.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqn2DQQVksM
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zSCfikm9M
Siesta: “Have a good night Flamma.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpAF1TzInb
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUMussOKiZ
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.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAub4CCZb1d
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGj7E4pD9w
Raskreia: ‘I hope it was nothing…’

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.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnL0fbW6KrT
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEphLDvN3j
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: “Alright, you saw what you needed. Now leave.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGmOlluPmw
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXfYfA5yQX
Louise: “How dar-”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZBEL7MzdM
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH70Iz2dCgJ
Bench: “If it wasn’t for the fact that you are Louise, I would have kicked you out. But I won’t tolerate you endangering…yourself.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf45OGk9sJz
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMy2LBBCod1
Louise: “But…how is this possible? Why are they two of me and why is she…like that?”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxcHfOj7Pc
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMh5j2b6XQe
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.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUe9hAAPiH9
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfkW12q3rE
Louise: “…Will she be fine?”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9C56BtbmX
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjamzu2HzO
Bench: “She will be if I’m given enough time to work on her. Now, if you’ll excuse me.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2e1kQUGfH5
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvydfXcQ82
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.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCIBFdWOLp
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJameQqU6Z
The thought of giving into the sensation…terrifiedher. She wanted…no…needed to escape this feeling.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEiyvse2h3
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Ik6xo07NT
Louise: ‘Where’s Aeron when I need him? Learning a new spell should help get my mind off this…’
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdouPIf1U1
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGiKG1F4EX
But instead of the dark star, the sun instead appeared before her.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEpGp05EyX
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGin4bkTYo
Flamma: “Hey Louise, we were looking everywhere for you.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBYqI4fi56
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6S5AAyhOvP
Louise: “Flamma!”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkk6yfrZvC
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiO3U40iD3a
Louise quickly regained herself and pushed down her unexpected excitement.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3TNEodZ8X
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPn3I5MV8C
Louise: “What are you doing here? Aren’t you suppose to be with Tech and the other maids?”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpE3lbafiBi
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mOndYDtfc
Flamma: “Jealous?”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTMfpgJiEV
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHn81y1MGg6
Louise: “N-No. Get over yourself familiar!”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZoTwkiVIX
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXpbskPvVw
Raskreia: “Oh, she got it bad huh? Understandable.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MgHLp902O
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwO02n4W6h
She whispers into Flamma’s ear.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQd8jGSFZi
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrXQGWUor1
Flamma: “Shush you.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqtkUk6206
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc62K2ABZgr
Flamma: “Don’t worry master, I was just learning somethings from my friends. I won’t leave your side for anything less.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQcYKaRH61
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunDwAWSAkN
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?”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqskAWaHMy
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKV4eRm02kp
Raskreia: “Buy me dinner first and maybe I’ll think about it.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19CMSLvB6j
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSeqRf4sTyv
That got Louise to fume red while Flamma giggled at how adorable Louise can be.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtqomy7YaM
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOsak09Dow
Raskreia: “Don’t be like that kid, I was just learning more about Flamma. Congrats by the way.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNW3wEzWYw
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05SQqH8L3O
Louise: “What are you talking about?”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUnZdMih7u
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxC58mCblDI
Raskreia: “You didn’t just bond with a dragon, but apparently one that was worshiped as a Goddess long ago. Nice job!”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwluI0OWAWP
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxLNvWpqhP
Louise: “…Huh?”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHefPmAu1N
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbafwtiU3Qi
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.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNxOhTxqau
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJd6USx0LuX
Raskeria alone may be his equal. That’s not even counting Zander and Flamma. But Jake is interesting…
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfbmXAPDQE
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7EePQ9zJv
Aeron: ‘He noticed but didn’t do anything, interesting. Maybe he could be a good tool for later. Speaking of tools…’
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4S37cNcc7
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcET6Qpum8v
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.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNggpYGsM4J
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvBm2zXBll
Luckily for him, the pieces were already in place.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenzZSGnlFj
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbGR78xmJa
Guiche is probably bitter about his lose, a perfect mind to send over the edge.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnI4P2hr08U
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEVrrJfbKp
Siesta was alone and vulnerable, a useful pawn and possible ally depending on how he pulls this off.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHD8NSaDlq9
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcsAhNoEc6
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.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xt4vhEXAS
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4g1eld0Ha
Aeron casts alter self so he looks like Siesta before making his way to Guiche.
