For a Friend

It was good news to have a reliable Transcended back fully recovered and was ready to lend the cohort a helping hand. If they were to accept Lorenzo's request, they would need as many powerful allies as possible. 

The old man kept the grin on his face as he turned to look at Achilles and Mina while speaking happily:

"It's been a while, lads. Good job on getting us here."

Achilles shrugged.

"Well, we couldn't have done it without you, old man."

The three stayed silent for a few moments before Bryan spoke up once more:

"I've heard about what has happened over the past few days. And I must say, just as I suspected, they would want something from us. Most Aurorans are treacherous bastards, after all."

He paused and then questioned:

"So, what exactly did these fools ask from ye? Tell me everything."

Achilles shifted his gaze toward Mina, signaling her to narrate what happened. The Foxian pointed at herself in a puzzled manner.
