"I will stay here to coordinate with the three Heras… there's also the fact that I feel like I need to talk to my younger self, literally."
Several hours had passed since everyone's conversation with Miss Pepondosovich, and Riley, Hannah, Nannah, and Miss Pepondosovich were now in the ship's Portal Chamber. Aerith and Diana were also there, making sure that everything was set before Riley and the others start traversing to the other universes.
Aerith wanted to go, but she knew it might have a different effect if Renna saw the mother of one of her… siblings from the Old World. And she also couldn't leave because Aerith 2 was still completely aloof from everyone, confused and extremely wary of everything.
"I'll leave all of you here," Aerith then approached Riley, "And Riley, for Arthas's and your other children's sake, don't disappear again, okay?"
"I will not disappear for now, Aerith," Riley nodded.
