After the two were done with their greetings, Mira brought Dominique to the 'dungeon' where she extracted the Blood Essences. It was also where Hana was training diligently.
She made sure to conceal most of Dominique's beastly features with illusions. Not that there was anything wrong with her, but there was no need to garner any unnecessary attention at this time.
Mira was already unique enough, but if there were two of them? People would start asking questions. Questions she didn't feel like answering.
As they entered the large 'dungeon', which looked more or less like a slaughterhouse, Hana looked over and immediately stopped training.
"Dominique!"
"Hana!"
The two leaped at one another and embraced tightly, their bond evident to anyone watching. Although it had been a relatively short period, to the two of them, it felt like lifetimes had passed.
