'I don't wanna go back to her shop…' Covered in a salamander's slime, Aria staggered through the streets, her eyes set on Helga's house that towered slightly over everyone else's. She had grown tired from the events of the day, but there was still one thing she had left to take care of. Looking down at her left hand holding a bag, she took a deep breath and heaved a sigh. 'I'll just return the tome and be done for the night.'
As she arrived at Helga's house, however, all lights had already been turned off. Her daughters were asleep and there were no signs of movement on the insides. A bit hesitant, Aria knocked on the door regardless. For a while nothing happened, but then came the barking of the dog from the inside, and soon enough echoed the sound of approaching steps.
