"Aclysia, you are definitely the best thing about this chaotic bunch of fools," Lydia said, while they were on their ride to the airport. The reason for this compliment was Aclysia helping Lydia clean up the rest of the mess they had left behind (she even put the crumbling parts of the wall into a neat pile). Then she had helped their driver to load in their luggage and lastly she had brought snacks. Lots and lots of healthy snacks, spread over the table in the middle of the stretch limo.
The artificial guardian lowered her head at the compliment, as actually bowing in the car was pretty hard. That wasn't just because of the fact that the ceiling wasn't high enough.
The car was packed to the brim. The whole crew was there, and 'the whole crew', for once, meant THE WHOLE crew. Even the five elementals had materialized. Sylph and Salamander had even assumed their bigger forms. For security reasons the fire spirit sat between Undine and Gnome.
