Livia's final say on the matter superseded whatever conflicting feelings she still had. With a bow, she acknowledged her master's orders and saw her off. She then turned her attention back to Eliz. Lucrecia noticed Akantha anxiety building up whilst still in the presence of their new teammate. Thankfully, Mariarca took the initiative and led the girl away to another task. That's one less thing to worry about! As they were about to be on their way, Siegine, an elven woman and another veteran to the Maison, had walked up with them. Taking a curiosity to their demon comrade, she inspected her head to tail. While she eventually let up on her examination, a comment she had made didn't seem to sit right with Eliz. This caused her to go on a tirade, making a display of herself in front of everyone present. Lucrecia didn't say a word. Instead, dawning a complete look of perplexity on her face. Demons, creatures she was led to understand were blood-thirsty eldritch horrors, have among them one that is tantamount to a child throwing a temper tantrum. Over her height no less. Polina attempted to calm the childish demon down, refocusing the group to continue onwards to duty. A sentiment that Lucrecia completely cosigned with.
