"Yes." Rachelle said. She had already messaged her sister about what happened, so there is no need for her to come home.​
 
“Mankind never fails to find meaningless conflict within itself no matter what it would seem...”

Scientia muttered under his breath bitterly in response. He then looked at Rachelle,noticing something.

“You looked as if you had to leave someone important to you.”
 
"It's...complicated." Rachelle doesn't want to give the details. She feels that Scientia might get harmed if she tells him that she's an Eidolon and that Eden might put him on the run.​
 
“Is there something you don't wish to tell,believing that it could cause me trouble?”

Scientia guessed from the tone of Rachelle's voice.
 
Rachelle lead Scientia away from the funeral. Once they're away, she then tells him the truth "Do you happen to know what Eidolons are? I...happened to be one of them. My parents were visited by my actual mother who had escaped from the village that was devastated by Eden soldiers. She was carrying me, protecting me, but at the cost of having to take numerous bullets to shield me from harm. And then...she died and I was adopted since then. For all my life I lived as a perfectly normal human but in truth, I am among the last of the ancient race of magic users to walk the earth. I don't know if my sister knows this truth."
 
“I see...from what I gather,the "Eidolons" would be what I could assume is a rare kind of mage.....Were you with any group prior to discovering your true roots?”

Scientia asked.
 
"Yes, I was with a group of adventurers. They were the ones who told me about who I actually am." Rachelle said.​
 
“Then I suppose I have a few questions for you: Do you believe they will really be safe without you? Are there really no one within that group who is also in danger of being chased down by Eden as you are? And most importantly....Are you truly okay with the decision you made for yourself?”

Three questions left Scientia's audio as he looked at Rachelle,before eventually turning away.

“I'll give you time to think about the answers. I'll still be around since the village may not be safe yet.”

He said,leaving Rachelle to her own device.
 
As Scientia left, Rachelle begins to think about the questions given. All of those are pertaining to her decision stray away from the group. She kept thinking, but cannot find an answer. That is when she felt someone hold her shoulder.

"You alright, Rachelle?"

She turns around and was surprised by the sight of her sister, Michelle. "Michelle..." Rachelle said before hugging her. Michelle hugs back, glad to see her sister safe and sound. "I thought you wouldn't come." Rachelle said. "Why should I? If there is anything wrong, then I will always be there despite your protests...and even...if you are not my sister in blood." Michelle said, which shocks Rachelle. Apparently, she had listened to the entire conversation in the shadows and understands. "Rachelle, why do you need to leave your party? I understand you need answers, but do you think leaving them in the dark is okay for you?" Michelle asked as she lets go of Rachelle "You know, you're making them worried sick. When I first met them, I thought they're just a bunch of amateurs. But having fought one of them, I was wrong, and then when I hear you were one of them, I knew who I can put my trust in when in regards in your protection. Rachelle, are you too worried that your companions will get in danger if you hang with them? Have you not went through the many dangers during your quests? Think about it. You and your allies went through a lot and survived. So if you say that you can take on Eden, then they will say the same and be on your side till death."

Rachelle looks down to the ground, thinking some more until she looks at Michelle and say "I understand. We've went through a lot of dangers just so to complete requests. So what if I am an Eidolon? That doesn't stop me from going through adventures. I have made up my mind; I will not run away anymore. I will...continue to support my friends no matter what. I may not be able to fight, but the very least I can do is treat them like how a caring mother treats her children. I'm...going back."
 
It doesn't look like there's any other reinforcement incoming anymore. Perhaps I could now approach the Village Head and notify him of my leave.

Scientia thought as he patrolled around the village and beyond the borders. He soon flew back to the village and entered the settlement by foot.
 
"Oh, Scientia's back. Come, let me introduce him to you." Rachelle said before leading her sister to where he is.​
 
As he made his way past the central village,Scientia soon heard several footsteps headed for his direction. He soon saw Rachelle and another woman approaching.

“I knew I detected someone else in the vicinity there.”
 
“Probably even worse than that.” Scientia casually responded. “I take it you must be Rachelle Valtimor's sister then?”
 
"Oh, so she told you about me. Well it's nice to meet you. I'm Michelle." She said.​
 
“Scientia. It's not my real name but it's currently what I'd rather people call me other than "Tin Head".”

Scientia introduced himself.
 
"Well, I'll do say that I thank you for your valiant effort in stopping the invasion. If Rachelle would have been killed, I would end up being a sobbing mess and kill myself." Michelle said.​
 
“As someone whose lost his younger brother and home to an invasion,I probably would've been a lot more ruthless against these men had I known about this.”

Scientia admitted.

“I suppose you two had a word with each other after I left then?”
 
“If that is the case I hope you've found the answers to the questions I've asked and made your decision Rachelle. I was going to have a word with the Village Head for a little heads up on my leave.”

“I understand you have other business to attend to. Thank you for your help.”

The Village Head said as he had been nearby when he heard Scientia speak.

“Did anyone perhaps sent you here to rescue the Village of Calbury? If so,is it okay if you could contact them? I would like to thank them.”

“I am in no way associated with anyone in this world. I'm actually on my own and happened to stumble upon the attack in your town. I was glad it didn't progress too far off or else I'd be seeing ruins of a civilisation instead.”
 
"Where will you be going?" Rachelle asked "If you don't have somewhere to go, how about visiting Altissia? If you have the time, try visiting the Adventurer's Guild and register there as an adventurer and take on quests. You would have to undergo training though."
 
“...I'm off to find a family member of mine who got dragged to goodness-knows-where.” Scientia explained. “And I don't need any wages from self-hired services,since I intend to just fly cross-country in search for him.”

"Do you need assistance? I'm sure we can be of good help in your search." Rachelle asked.​
