Vincent nodded in response.
"Very well." he replied.
"This way." he told her.
With that, they travelled a bit of a convoluted path, but eventually she ended up seeing a very sizeable patch of the flowers she was looking for.
"Have at them." he said.
"They're ripe for the plucking."

Quiet! Lady Luna is speaking!- - - -
"Perfect" Demi said with a grin before collecting what she'd been asked to get. It took about twenty minutes before she had enough, and she got to her feet before looking abck to Vincent.
"Now then," she started as she put them in the pack she had with her, "You ok with Tainted mana?" She asked.
"Or would you prefer not to travel via that?"

- - - -All right, she is finished. You may speak again.
"Tainted mana is not an issue for me." Vincent replied.
"I'm used to it." he told her.
"So do not worry." he assured her.
"I'm ready to go when you are."
"I'm used to it." he told her.
"So do not worry." he assured her.
"I'm ready to go when you are."
Quiet! Lady Luna is speaking!- - - -
Demi nodded before sighing and hodling a hand out to him. After he'd accepted, he could feel the mana collecting around them, mere moments before they vanished from where they were.
The tainted mana, the shadows, came up and enveloped them, before they vanished. The next thing that Vincent knew, he was standing outside of a what looked to be a really good sized cabin.
"Mom's probably inside." DEmi said before heading inside.

"................" Vincent was silent as he witnessed the cabin.
"Right." he said.
"This is no time to back down." he told himself.
He then gathered his courage, took a deep breath, and followed her inside.
"....Racquel...?" he mumbled, looking around.
"Right." he said.
"This is no time to back down." he told himself.
He then gathered his courage, took a deep breath, and followed her inside.
"....Racquel...?" he mumbled, looking around.
Quiet! Lady Luna is speaking!- - - -
He was met with silence for a moment before he heard footsteps approaching. It didn't take long at all before the woman he was looking for turned the corner and looked him head to toe.
"Oh Lord... I haven't seen you in ages, Vincent." She said, a soft smile on her face as she approached and wrapped her arms around him, grateful to see hjim again.

- - - -All right, she is finished. You may speak again.
Vincent continued to be silent, but returned the embrace, wrapping his arms around her.
"Racquel..." he said.
"I... it's been so long..." he said further.
"And you haven't aged a bit." he added with a light chuckle.
"Still as gorgeous as when I last saw you."
"Racquel..." he said.
"I... it's been so long..." he said further.
"And you haven't aged a bit." he added with a light chuckle.
"Still as gorgeous as when I last saw you."
Quiet! Lady Luna is speaking!- - - -
"My mana keeps me young." Racquel answered before pulling back after a moment.
"Nice to see you haven't aged either." She then said with a chuckle.
"How'd you find us?" She then asked after a moment or two, having not run into her daughter yet.

"How'd you find us?" She then asked after a moment or two, having not run into her daughter yet.
- - - -All right, she is finished. You may speak again.
Vincent sighed.
"Our daughter." he told her.
He then told her of how he happened upon Demi, the trouble she was in, how he'd saved her, and what had happened when she had woken up.
"So it seems it was a serendipitous encounter." he said.
"She brought me back here."
"Our daughter." he told her.

Racquel was silent for a moment.
"Well, thank you for keeping her alive." She then said.
"Would have really been unfortunate to lose her without having a way to track her." She added before pausing.
"I haven't managed to get Scrying down pat yet."
"Well, thank you for keeping her alive." She then said.
"Would have really been unfortunate to lose her without having a way to track her." She added before pausing.
"I haven't managed to get Scrying down pat yet."
- - - -All right, she is finished. You may speak again.
Vincent nodded.
"Indeed." he replied.
"And you haven't?" he asked.
"I may be able to help." he told her.
"...shall we talk over tea?" he then asked.
"We have so much to catch up on."
"Indeed." he replied.
"And you haven't?" he asked.
"I may be able to help." he told her.
"...shall we talk over tea?" he then asked.
"We have so much to catch up on."
Quiet! Lady Luna is speaking!- - - -
Racquel just laughed lightly.
"That we really do." She agreed with a nod.
"Let me grab some tea."

A few hours later, Vincent was preparing to leave. As per Racquels request, he was using his mana outside. He was out there, his mana starting to collect around him before he saw Demitra approaching.
"Vincent," she started as she got close enough, "Do you have a minute? I'd like to speak with you about something before you leave."
"That we really do." She agreed with a nod.
"Let me grab some tea."

Vincent stopped pooling his mana, and looked at his daughter.
"Demitra?" he addressed her.
"Of course." he said.
"What is it?" he asked her. "Your tone indicates it's quite important." he said further.
"Is everything all right?"
"Demitra?" he addressed her.
"Of course." he said.
"What is it?" he asked her. "Your tone indicates it's quite important." he said further.
"Is everything all right?"

Demi was silent for a moment before sighing as she stepped up to him.
"I'll make this simple." She said.
"Mom and I need money, and I can hunt." She told him.
"I want to know if you know any quality guild that could possibly be looking for freelancers."
"I'll make this simple." She said.

- - - -All right, she is finished. You may speak again.
"......." Vincent was silent as he heard that.
"Hm." he mumbled.
"...ah!" he then exclaimed, snapping his fingers.
"I may know JUST the place." he told her.
"How do you want to do this?" he asked.
"You go to them, or they come to you?"
"Hm." he mumbled.
"...ah!" he then exclaimed, snapping his fingers.
"I may know JUST the place." he told her.
"How do you want to do this?" he asked.
"You go to them, or they come to you?"
Quiet! Lady Luna is speaking!- - - -
Demi sighed lightly.
"I will go there. Will likely look better on me if I did." She then answered after a few seconds.
"Admittedly, I will need the information for where I am going..."
"I will go there. Will likely look better on me if I did." She then answered after a few seconds.
"Admittedly, I will need the information for where I am going..."
- - - -All right, she is finished. You may speak again.
Vincent thought for a moment.
"Candentus Lux." he told her.
"The leaders there are always looking for good people." he said.
"You'll need to get inside, though." he went on.
"Hmmm..." he mumbled.
"Ah, when you are addressed at the door, give them a special code phrase." he told her.
"Tell them Vincent sent you to help maintain balance." he finished.
"Candentus Lux." he told her.

When Vincent finished saying what he did, Demi nodded.
"All right hten." She told him.
"I will do that." She paused a moment before thinking.
"If I'm correct... Northern Ireland, right?"
"All right hten." She told him.
"I will do that." She paused a moment before thinking.
"If I'm correct... Northern Ireland, right?"
- - - -All right, she is finished. You may speak again.
Vincent nodded in response.
"Indeed." he replied.
"I would give you the exact location and/or coordinates, but finding one's way there is part of the initiation." he told her.
"If you cannot at least make it there on your own, you have no business applying, is their line of reasoning." he went on.
"I wish you luck, Demitra." he then said, pausing for a moment, and then giving her a hug.
"And it was wonderful to finally see you again."
"Indeed." he replied.
"I would give you the exact location and/or coordinates, but finding one's way there is part of the initiation." he told her.

"There is no shame in deterrence. Having a weapon is very different from actually using it." - Ghandi
Quiet! Lady Luna is speaking!- - - -
Demi nodded.
"That makes sense." She then said.
"It's the first act of, as you said, initiation. To see if I'm even worthy of it." She paused a moment before smirking.
"I'll be there by weeks end." She assured him.
"Thank you, Vincent."
"That makes sense." She then said.
