"Mrs. Ollie, didn't your young Apprentice come today?" On his way back to the dorms, Colin noticed the great Divine Master sitting in the corner of the hall's rest area. Out of respect, he approached and offered the legendary figure a cup of hot water.
"She asked for a day off," replied Ollie as she took the cup, giving Colin a nod with a smile.
"Asked for a day off? How strange, I remembered Maya having an avid thirst for knowledge. She wants to become stronger, to help her brother."
"They're out gathering information about that boy Gaiate today. As much as I'd like to stop them, I cannot halt two children's desire to care for their own father, futile though such efforts might be." With those words, Ollie sighed, "Little guy, you should go on, let me have some peace alone."
"Alright then, I'll be heading off. Mrs., see you tomorrow." Colin nodded, then left the hall.
