[color=f49ac2]"I see,"[/color] was Eos' initial response to HR-513's request. The High Queen took a moment to consider it while commanding an android handmaiden to take the flowers away to her personal chambers. As soon as she reached a conclusion, Eos addressed the battle droid once again, [color=f49ac2]"Your acceptance or not on the position you have requested will depend on your ability to complete a trial."[/color]

[color=f49ac2]"In preparation for future necessities, the Machina require a complete chart of the Datascape. As soon as you have fulfilled this task, you shall be granted the authorization to perform the function of High Cartographer,"[/color] Eos said as a holographic display close to her showed the message: [SUBJECT: DATASCAPE; INSUFFICIENT INFORMATION].

[color=f49ac2]"Is there anything more that you would like to request?"[/color] the High Queen asked of Harvester.

At the hallowed halls of Celestia, more precisely at the Heavens' Grand Library, one of the Divine Imperator's newest retainers would have the chance for a rare meeting. Or better, it wasn't that the being Saef was about to meet was that elusive —even if that was partly true, given her true nature— but rather that not many people visited the Grand Library so, the chances of meeting [url=https://static.zerochan.net/Vanilla.%28Neko.Para%29.full.939754.jpg][b]The Librarian[/b][/url], were quite small for many of Celestia's best.

The feline being's presence was announced by the soft jiggling of her tail bell. Nevertheless, even in the rather silent ambient of the Grand Library, it only became audible when she was a mere few feet away from the former human.

[color=6ecff6]"I have never seen you around here,"[/color] she said in a slow, seemingly bored —or perhaps sleepy— voice while taking her time to give Saef a once over. Her trained eyes scanned the contents of the books and artifacts sprawled over the table in a mere moment. [color=6ecff6]"If you want to learn about ancient history, these won't help you. You would be better off cherry picking runes at someplace like the Ruthria's ruins or Arcadia, than reading this."[/color]

[color=6ecff6]"Depending on what you want to know, I may be able to help you. But, you can always search for the right answer on your own, if you know where to look. The world around yourself better than these dead tomes."[/color]

On the pits of Hell, a certain scarlet garbed bounty hunter would meet a quirkier individual. Standing not far away from the entrance of Pandemonium, the Hell's capital fortress, there was a... very [url=https://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=1562823][b]unique looking being[/b][/url]. At first, the azure demon girl didn't seen to have noticed Marie. In fact, she was talking with a truly [url=https://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=1908609][b]sinister looking creature[/b][/url].

The demonic courier and the demon girl chatted until the moment when Marie was about to get to a normal human's earshot distance. In case her hearing was finer than this, the Bounty Hunter would be able to notice that the two of them were already saying their parting words. The rider mentioned having to deliver a message about the raise of the new rulers of Hell to the rest of the underworld before taking his leave.

The demon girl waved him off, turning around startled at Marie's approach. [color=8493ca]"Oh my, are here because of the news as well?"[/color] she said with a confident voice, completely ignoring the fact that she had nearly jumped out of her skin a moment ago. [color=8493ca]"And, if I say to you that the cherry of the cake is yet to be revealed, you may as well not believe me. It really looks like there ain't no rest for the wicked..."[/color] the demon girl went silent for a moment, as if assessing Marie's reaction, before adding in an apprehensive voice, [color=8493ca]"you got that one, didn't you?"[/color]
