Ethan gazed at the women before him, a smile reflecting the warmth he felt at finally being reunited with them. After everything he had gone through, what he had missed the most was their company. During the moments when darkness overwhelmed him and he thought his transformation into a lich was inevitable, his mind kept returning to the possibility of never again feeling the touch of their skin in his hands. Now, he took the opportunity to tenderly caress them.
"I missed you all so much," Ethan said with a sigh, allowing himself a moment of vulnerability before returning to his more practical tone. "Where's Neith?"
Yassmin was the first to respond, crossing her arms while a playful smile appeared on her lips.
"Neith is in the underground world. She told us she was working on some things and would probably be busy for a while. But the truth is, she's just trying to keep her mind occupied so she doesn't think too much about you."
