There was little fanfare to their arrival back in Verilonia, no hoards of servants greeting them in joy.
But Emily didn't mind, honestly.
A lack of chaos was something of a blessing.

She blinked up at the sky.
It was late afternoon in the fae realm when they stepped through the portal.
She hadn't thought about it initially when she came through the portal because she was just happy to be there.
But after taking her bath...the sun shouldn't have still been up?
Except when she looked, it was barely after noon.
She squinted a few moments, before looking back over at Merwyn. "...Time flows differently in the fae realm?"
"Hm? Sometimes!~" He giggled and flapped a hand, the motion resembling a bird's wings in a lazy fashion.
