Mamoru bowed her head as she was complimented by her quickness. "I am humbled by your praise, Master Rodias. It is a maiden's duty to quickly attend to her master's every need, and I am pleased if I have served you well." She glanced over at Chuunitrixx who set up a defensive array around Rodias. Excessive and not at all elegant, however Mamoru knew it was not her place to make any criticism right now. Besides that more came to join, including Rodias' personal creation, Zouyu. He tended to the gardens. He asked Mamoru if she was ovulating, which made her smile politely, but her eyes narrowed in annoyance. "Do you know what that even means, Zouyu sir?" Not long after, other chapter leaders and important members of the Chateau began to arrive. Mamoru remained ever composed as they came in and introduced themselves. Once everyone had arrived, or at least enough of them, Rodias began his speech. Mamoru was quiet as Rodias, her Sable Lord and fellow Creator, informed them of their unusual situation. Mamoru has honestly not noticed anything particularly amiss, beyond rarely seeing her own Creator anymore. But she hasn't seen him in quite some time anyways. And yet when Rodias plainly mentioned that Mamoru's master, along with the other Sable Lords, are far from here, Mamoru couldn't help but tense up. She knew her master had been away for some time but... He would come back. He promised her he would. He told her that he would see Mamoru later. Deep inside Mamoru wanted to see him again. But deeper in she knew that her lord was a fickle being. Passionate yet cold. Someone who would give their heart and soul to others, but also forget them callously. He was a contradiction only because Mamoru wanted to think nothing but good things about him, but if there was one thing she learned from him, it was that no one was perfect. And for all the good things about someone there was an equal yet opposite fault they kept well hidden. Mamoru tried to keep those thoughts at bay by focusing on the new task at hand. They needed to figure out where exactly they have arrived, starting with investigating nearby settlements. Apparently there was a village nearby which likely hasn't spotted the Chateau, but considering their location it would only be a matter of time before they are discovered. Information was important, first and foremost, so they needed to know what was around them. As Rodias correctly pointed out, since they were now cut off from their usual supply lines from the world of Yggdrasil, it would behoove the chateau to secure any future supplies and resources. After all even if many of the denizens of the chateau are skeletons, many more are still living creatures that require sustenance. Additionally, if the lands they found themselves are a warlike one, it would be important for the Chateau to have the needed resources to create any weapons to fight against them. Mamoru was confident in her skills in battle but in these unknown lands, there's no telling how strong their enemies are. However what happened next caught Mamoru completely by surprise. Rodias, her current and only Sable Lord, kneel towards them. Almost immediately Mamoru stepped forward, along with many others. "Master Rodias, please compose yourself. I... I am shocked that you would consider the likes of myself so highly that you would kneel before me. Before any of us. If anything our loyalty to you should be in question. Of the Sable Lords... You are the one who remains. Until the very end you are here, with us, into this unknown world. Our Creators... Have left us behind and yet it was you who stayed. You were stayed with us and the Chateau. That is something that none of us can ever repay. Not with our lives, our wealth, or even our power. Master Rodias, you have shown us your strength and loyalty in both the previous world, and into this new one. For that... For that, the least I can do is everything and more." Mamoru took a step forward, kneeling down and extended her hand towards Rodias. "I am but a humble maiden, born to serve, so please be be my master and lead us in this grand new world. Do not lower yourselves to our level, we servants and warriors who have lost their purpose along with their creators. You are destined for far greater things. So please... Rise above to your rightful throne, and be the king that we need."
