Chapter 73 - Hope Anew (Page 67)

"Sure, should we wait for you to arrive before starting?" Nimbus asked Sora 

as she got up. In response Sora shook her head "Start first, for all I know it will take quite a while for it to finish." She said as Sora got up going over to Star carrying her on her back as Ruby helped her place Star properly over Sora's back. She nodded in thanks and she walked off to the dorms eventually disappearing from view as she made a turn. 

As Sora left the rest of the party got up onto their feet, "So anyone know the directions to the closest totem?" River asked the remaining party and was greeted by a resounding silence other than the soft chatter from the other side of the door. There was an awkward pause before Ruby spoke up "How about we just follow where Sora went, she seems to know where she is going" She suggested. 

There were nods from the whole party so they all went in the same direction 

that we last saw Sora heading towards. Although given the complexity of the castle it took them a good while to find one which we all huddled up by to examine. It took them a bit as they stayed there to memorise the directions before they head off in the direction of the forge. 

It took them a while but they made it back to the forge although on the way 

there they met up with Crimson by chance. Although she did not notice us and neither did we until she collided with Emerald by accident who backed up hissing in pain. "Ahh, I'm so sorry! I didn't notice you there, let me heal that!" Crimson exclaimed, backing up so she does not accidentally burn anyone else. A pale white magic circle flashed over her palm which she pointed at Emerald healing the burn.

Although even with the burn healed her clothes at the point of contact was 

charred which earned her a glare from Emerald. "I'll pay you so you can get a new one alright?" Crimson said, trying to make up for what just happened with a small smile. 

"In that case you better make sure you hold up to your end of the bargain" 

Emerald said with a slight grin which prompted Crimson to speak up "You're going to make me get you the most expensive one you can find aren't you?" Crimson said with a sigh shaking her head as Emerald nods "I should have seen that coming" she muttered.
