Airson laid back in his bed, flipping his silver coin in the air and catching it repeatedly.
Miraka was laying down next to him, mindlessly watching. "Where'd you get that anyway...?"
"My teacher, Rua, gave it to me. It has some sort of magical properties, but he didn't tell me everything. All he said was that it would 'lead me to the right people'."
"Maybe it's like a teleportation thing."
"I dunno. Could be."
Miraka looked at him. "Are you still worried?"
"You can tell?"
"We grew up together."
Airson chuckled. "Right." He caught his coin. "I want revenge. It's selfish of me but... those people have to pay for what they did. 500 years... I spent 500 years with him."
Miraka sat up. "Why don't we find out more about your coin?"
Airson looked her way. "How're we gonna do that?"
Miraka raised a finger. "Let's talk to the princess."
"You mean Narumi?"
"Yeah!"
