38 The Hall of the Luminous, Part Three

The guest room Neve stood in was so quiet, the healer could hear her own heart pounding against her chest. 

She was nervous. 

For a few reasons. Firstly, she worried about what would happen to Erin's combat ability, but she also worried about how the lamia would take this. 

She could stall no longer, though. This was a conversation that needed to happen. And so, Neve brought her summon out. 

"Hm? How did we get here?" Erin asked, looking around after Neve summoned her. 

[Well... I guess that's one way to get started.] 

There was a chance that Neve was simply overthinking this and that Erin's summon settings would work to prevent her mind from fully crumbling upon realizing she was, in fact, the result of a spell. However, on the off chance that the Forces That Be made Erin as realistic as any other person for the specific purpose of messing with her, Neve wanted to approach this carefully.
