Gilderoy's Woes

--

"...So, Acala's in slumber now because she's tired after evolving into a Cosmic Spirit?" Godwyn asked with barely concealed shock on his face.

His brothers, while not looking as shocked on the outside, were the same inwardly.

"Yes." Cedric nodded, then sipped his tea. "It's a short slumber; she'd wake up soon after she adjusted to her new form. She used her PTO for this too, so no worries in that regard."

At Cedric's behest, his sons first went to their mothers before coming to him. It took a while for the boys to reassure their mothers that they're fine and doing well while also pacifying their sulkiness at their departure. It was only after that that they went to him.

The first thing they inquired after checking Cedric's well-being was the strange changes they felt since returning here. Cedric didn't hide what he did; he told them that he helped Acala evolve into a Cosmic Spirit. Which brings us to the present.
