If it was a joke, its a cruel one to play on your own mother! But if it's real... I have always wanted to see what the Auburn Grotto looked like from above... Just don't tell your father, you know how he worries! I know that creature will be in the best care with you, you always had a

to reignite the friendship you once had. Watching you both play together as kids are some of my fondest memories, I've never seen two people be so opposite yet compliment eachother as much as you two did in your good moments. I hope you don't mind, but I mentioned to Dalia & Al

that you had run into Pyro at the Academy, so they were hoping you'd be able to pass on a letter to him from them, they were so relieved to hear anything about him as it's been a while since they last heard from him. Igna also misses you, she's asked a few times when you are returning, she misses
