Yanis turned her head upon hearing the voice, only to see Aiwass held in the arms of Her Highness the Holy Maiden, riding atop a unicorn.
Her expression immediately became inexplicably odd.
She bowed slightly, her right hand over her chest, and gave a greeting to the Pure White Saintess above the unicorn, "Your Highness, it's been a long time. May Candle Master protect you."
"And may Candle Master protect you as well. It has been a long time, Yanis," the Pure White Saintess said with a smile, her voice warm, "You can just call me Grey."
This was the "Pure White" Saintess's real name—a name theoretically not widely known.
"Then... Grey," Yanis adjusted her hat, pulling the brim down slightly as if subconsciously trying to shield her face, "Are you doing well?"
"I am well."
Grey watched Yanis, her right hand over her chest.
Her voice was soft, earnest, "But I've missed you."
