Iulia nodded, resisting the urge to beg him to stay. He needed to save his friend. It was a noble cause and she respected that. Still... It would be dangerous, and she hated the thought of seeing Aiden hurt. Again on impulse she took her protection necklace, with silver charms, one each for Aesculapius, Minerva, Mercury, and Roma, and dropped it over Aiden's head. "Minerva grant you cunning, Mercury give you swiftness, Aesculapius heal you from harm. May all the gods and goddesses go with you, my friend. And may you return safely to me." She said it in Latin, so that Aiden couldn't yell at her for being a silly, emotional little girl, and then turned away and mounted her own horse lest she do something really idiotic like cry.
