“So, that is where she went.” The answer I had gone to such effort to acquire, even going so far as to conquer a dungeon to obtain, was that simple. “Miki is in Dioshin.”

“M-Master?” My eyes widened.
“Eh? Who are you calling Master? I’m still the master of this dungeon!” The boy cried out.

In a way, this was probably for the best. After having such an emotional blow, going and saving her family would be good for her. With luck, she was still with them. Using her ability to save her family from their illness, I could see them coming to accept her just like Chalm. At least she wasn’t alone. That’s what I was thinking as I watched the memory fade away as they entered the safe room to teleport out of the dungeon.
Then, Celeste spoke up. “Everything those men told her, was a lie!”
