When Zia heard I was going to join the month-long inspection, she said she would go into seclusion.
No, not to reach enlightenment or develop her martial art--which she had none--but to finish her new book.
I had no idea how long someone would need to finish a book, but...a month should be enough to finish one that was already half-done, right? But eh--even if she wasn't out yet, I still needed to go there anyway.
First to feed my greedy familiar, and then I needed to talk to the demons there about the possibility of the Hero's visit. I mean...I certainly didn't want any fights happening in my backyard. I didn't want anyone to get hurt, whether it was the Lair's caretakers or the visiting humans.
"Ignis, we'll go visit my first home," I told the Salamander as we walked through the hallway to the garden where the portal was.
"First home?"
[Jade's home!]
