Melina shrugged, crossing her arms. "My reasons are my own for this fight. And I prefer to stay out of a guild, regardless I figure any where there's someone willing to teach me would be a guild yours will try to shut down." She rubs her nose before returning her hand back under her other arm. "Speaking of which, I notice some of your members are very adamant about believing things are Black and White, and I can say for certain a certain Phoenix is very guilty of this." She glares pointedly at Penny. "But I figure I can't change that, so I'll have to put up with it."

She lets out a little sigh. "I figure you'll probably order them to take me back to the guild, whether to keep me from doing any more unfortunate deeds or getting me out of the way it doesn't matter. I've only ever had Mayt's mother. His dad hasn't been released yet. His mother.is in a cave along the western road a few miles out of town. It's covered up by some vines and trees. Not easy to find, but not too hard if you know what you're looking for." She smiled a little. "And I'm glad to hear Mithera is 'fascinating'. Should I call the Phoenix Swords back over?" She looks over at Penny and Damian again, trying to indicate the joking name was about them.
