561 Ella's Initiative

In the small house attached to the Mariel Auto Repair Shop in Morgana Fortress City, Ella was doing her best to adapt to the smell of the city, while also trying to accept that fact that her childhood had actually smelled horrific.

The only bright point in the scent of this place was her mother's cooking, which she had nearly burnt again in the woman's excitement to have her daughter home.

"I told you Mom, the meetings are going to take some time. You don't need to panic every time that I leave the house." Ella reminded the portly older woman with an indulgent smile.

"But if you had stayed at the Academy, you would have been home to visit by now." Her mother countered.
