It had been ten years since the Second Expedition departed.
Yuumeislyk had already begun to outlive her time in the Capital. People were starting to forget about the Second Expedition, and many more had already believed that they had died outside of Ether.
The humans around her also started to notice her lack of ageing.
She needed to leave the Capital and go somewhere else, somewhere more discreet where she could live for the next few years. Yet, she was unwilling to do so. She had promised to meet Letha after she returned from the Second Expedition, and it was likely that Letha would be returning directly to the Capital.
Yuumeislyk turned herself invisible, vanishing from the gaze of humans. She waited in the capital for the day Letha would return.
