A few days passed after Maria declared her intention to go on a trip, and today was the day of her departure.
During the last few days, Mira and Maria did nothing but spend time with each other. They didn't train, cultivate, or anything like that. They simply enjoyed each other's company.
They both knew it'd be a while before they next saw each other, and they wanted to make the most of their time together. However, neither of them saw this separation as a bad thing.
Standing in front of the door in their room, Maria stared at Mira with Vulcan at her feet. The fox hasn't seen much action lately, but Maria vowed to rectify that. There were still mysteries around Vulcan that needed to be answered, and Maria intended to uncover some of them through this journey.
"Well… I suppose it's time for me to leave." Maria said while rubbing the side of her cheek.
Mira nodded calmly, "Yes, I suppose it is."
