Gaia hesitated before quickly nodding.
"O-of course."
And so the tour began.
She started with the training yard, which was a wide, open space, lined with glowing Arcane for strengthening the structure... a must-have for an arena made for Runebearers.
"You'll probably use this… a lot.
"Probably."
Xenos agreed while stepping onto the sand and kicking it lightly.
"It feels solid underfoot. Did you test it yet?"
She shook her head.
"I was waiting for you."
Xenos grinned.
"Flattering."
That made her trip over her next word entirely.
Which, thankfully for her, weren't exactly many.
After that, they moved on to the kitchen, where a few maids scrambled to bow as they entered.
"They insisted on baking since dawn, calling it a celebration."
"Of what?"
"Your arrival and our new home."
He blinked.
"They celebrate me showing up? You might want to warn them to lower expectations."
Her laugh came out soft.
"I'll… try."
