Amy can't believe her eyes. Viola has finally woke up.
She is being coddled by their family and now the whole mansion is up in arms. She doesn't physically appear to have any complications that come with a coma, but she is quite disorientated as everyone begins to explain what is going on.
Now that she is awake, she could catch up what she missed and even help Melissa with the ongoing plague issue. Melissa is able to heal people but not get rid of the source. Her purification ability would be able to do just that.
Amy stopped the vision and focus on her training. She visualizes Alina in front of her and begin fighting her like she is there. It also happens to be the same thing going on for her as well. Alina is doing the same training as her and they both begin dueling.
There is no worthy opponent on this ship, so she decides to focus on her visualization techniques; something she is familiar with in her original world. As much as she wishes to see Viola, she will have to wait until she comes back to the mainland.
She sent many gifts to Alabaster by Hecate to send to her family and friends. She is biased as she prefers giving away almost everything to her family knowing they would love them. In fact, she sends away so much that even Leon, who had everything, is jealous of her family.

Viola feels confused. She just woke up from a coma for crying out loud and she missed a lot. Strangely enough, she feels like she is in top shape. There is no sign of atrophy at all so her body feels the same.
Her parents were extremely happy to see that she finally woke up and already sent out news of her recovery.
Apparently, she is treated by the same doctor who treated Amy the year before who gave very specific instructions for her so that she won't be in a terrible state by the time she wakes up.
However, she is strictly put on a diet because she hasn't eaten in months so she will need to get used to eating again. It reminds her of Amy's overdose during their first year.
She received letters, all unopened, about the events in school. After she collapsed, she missed quite a lot. Melissa is on a leave of absence to deal with the plague in the Orlando territory, Sabina got into an accident, and both are legs are extremely damaged to the point that no one knows that she could use them anymore. Nathaniel got attacked. Everyone else is fine. She received letters from Amy although due to the distance, each one is weeks apart so there isn't much and she received souvenirs. It was actually quite excessive. There are boxes full of pearls, gemstones and other materials of many different colors and variety. She strokes the silk fabric. The pattern is quite unique and beautiful, and she would love it to be made into a dress as soon as possible. Her parents received as many gifts as well though she wondered how she got them through.
She already made preparations to go back to the academy as soon as possible. Now that she woke up and made a full recovery, she can meet everyone else again.
"Violet, honey!" Her mother says and Viola turned around.
"Do you truly wish to go to school? Your father and I were thinking of dropping you out of school."
Viola almost ripped the fabric in her hand but stopped herself from ruining a precious gift.
"What? But... that's not fair!" she protested.
"After what happened to you, we cannot ignore it. You have been poisoned."
Viola read it in one of her letters. She drunk some mineral water that caused her to have a coma, but that problem is already fixed. The culprit is found, and the water issue was solved.
"I'm afraid your father believes you and your sister should finish your studies here. He also believes that you should study for the Dragon test. As soon as your sister returns from the expedition, you will both begin your private lessons."
Her eyes flared nervously at her mother. "Amy has done nothing wrong. I get that you are all worried for my safety, but she is much stronger than me. You can't do this to us!"
Despondent, her mother spoke, "After Margaret Lune died," Viola felt her mouth dry up at the thought of her friend, "we were nervous and scared for you. That school has been nothing but trouble. Now that you're awake, we both plan on appealing to her majesty to revoke you and your sister's roles as the prince's knight in the future."
Viola's anger flared up that her aura reacts to her emotions, but she stopped upon noticing her mother's nervousness. Unlike her father, her mother doesn't know anything about magic and cannot counter it.
"Mother, I promise to be stronger. I promise that nothing bad will happen to me. I would study harder, work harder and study for the dragon test but please do not make me drop from school. All my friends are there. Please mother, father."
Her father came in the room. She noticed he's been eavesdropping for some time now, but she didn't call him out yet.
"The Dragon's test is one of the hardest tests to pass in the country. It tests your knowledge as if you are a graduate from the royal academy. If you can pass it, I'll ensure that you will not drop off from the magic academy."
"Yes, father. I promise." she said.
"I will also personally tutor you myself. I may not have taken the Dragon's test, but I graduated from the Royal Academy and the Imperial Institute."
The Dragon's test is something more suited for Amy. She is practically ready for this kind of thing, not her. And yet, she is the one tasked to do it. But it doesn't matter because she is ready for it. She has a reason to go back even more now.
