[ENTER THE PALACE]
[You find yourself with a sensation like floating in water.]
[Above, the sky is dark. You can occasionally see things shifting, like gusts of wind, or perhaps waves of water. Is it…even a sky above you? Or is it some kind of giant ocean? Whatever it is, you can’t make it out very well. All around you, you appear to be floating in what appears to be water. It looks like a great, wide ocean of…space in every direction around you, with stars and lights twinkling in the distance. It looks like water and feels like water, but it doesn’t make you wet. You can reach your hand into it and pull some out, the purple and violet water and the tiny points of light inside it will even rest in your hands if you cup them to carry it, but once you’re not trying to hold it anymore, it’ll flow off of you, not a single drop remaining behind. You feel something similar if you go underneath the surface. The “water” doesn’t touch your eyes, mouth or nose when give the chance, it merely drifts around you, allowing you to breathe and see unabated. And you can see for a great distance, the twinkling stars illuminating the ocean of space all around you. Though perhaps less dark and empty, it feels every bit as vast as the sky above. You feel like you could swim forever and never reach the edge.]
[It’s quiet, here, with little noise around you but the starry ocean’s waves crashing back into its surface. It’s peaceful. In another situation, it might even be comfortable.]

She's walked over many graves to get where she is. Including her entire family. She will, without a doubt, walk over yours as well.
[Lilith turns away from Tsumugi.]
But you already know that.
You seem to know how this is going to end. So why waste any more words.
no subject
Esmau. She was your apprentice? Not your relative? Did she really like rap? And hate anime?
I guess that's four questions.
no subject
Her blood matters not.
no subject
[it's probably past time to interrogate Lilith...]
Thanks for talking with me! And not killing me. It was very kind of you.
no subject
If you stay here, Esmau will deal with you.
I needn't raise a hand.
no subject
[okay she's going to go back to... hm. The cabin? Maybe Lyra is there.]
no subject
Ness --
....ah. One of you.
[She stares at Tsumugi briefly. She has purple eyes, same as Nessa and white hair, same as Agnis. She looks older than Agnis, but not by a lot.]
Hmn.
[She looks disappointed to see Tsumugi and goes back to what she's working on at the desk. But, hey, at least she's not kicking her out?]
no subject
[she comes in with a little hesitation, but on seeing the other woman greet her, she takes on a stern look.]
Hey. Don't plain dismiss me like that. As someone who came to Nessa's mind palace to help her, I find that very rude.
no subject
If somebody told you that I have some adventure for you to embark on, or some bauble for you to obtain, they're lying.
no subject
--But quests aside, what's your name? I'm Tsumugi Shirogane, the Ultimate Cosplayer.
no subject
....
[She seems to be considering not answering, but, she lets out a sigh through her nose and looks up.]
Lyra Houghton.
Is there something you want to know about my daughter?
no subject
You're her mother, right? Then that makes Agnis and Nessa your daughters?
no subject
I had Agnis and Caesar while I lived with my husband, in the country. I had Nessa...
[She sighs.]
In this coven.
no subject
You don't seem much older than Agnis.
no subject
[That wasn't a sigh, it was her saying the word "sigh" out loud.]
Vanity is one of my many vices. I use cosmetic magic to hold off the effects of aging on my body.
My eldest daughter thinks this is, and I am directly quoting her, "kind of stupid and regressive, mom." What 12-year old calls their mother regressive, I ask you.
