Taira Travels Home

"You still haven't heard from him at all?"

"Are you kidding? He's my son-in-law, and I'm still not inclined to push my luck with him. My daughter won't even answer my scrolls!"

Two of the three floating faces hovering in front of her looked ashamed.

Kyoen, the acing heavenly demon, was the only one who seemed to be unaware of what was going on.

"Something occurred between the lot of you and the master?"

Aja really didn't know how she was supposed to get used to Kyoen's new demeanor as it pertained to Taira. She wasn't sure exactly what her best friend had done, but it seemed as though he had really done a number on the spider.
