After the meeting on Stovefire Island concluded, the ladies each went their separate ways.
"Medea and Miel seem to have reached some sort of consensus," Thira said, seated in the chair in the underground laboratory, speaking to Nora, who was studying a source of power, "They've thrown out a plan that was obviously designed well in advance and predicted any questions we might throw at them."
"If their so-called plan is just to have Sigrdrifa risk her life, I don't think that would be to our disadvantage, Thira."
Nora, slowly rotating the microscope, continued, "If it were me, I would absolutely not let Ellie take that risk."
"Perhaps it's because there's a great benefit involved that they're doing this," Thira speculated.
"They've already told us," Nora sighed, "Something that can help Mia complete her Ritual Task."
"I always feel it's not that simple," Thira still felt something was amiss.
