Auris, alongside Elder Rosaline and Elder Valeria, led the victorious group of women back to their base. The energy was one of triumphant relief as they moved together, discussing the battle's outcomes and their implications.
Among them, the women of the Cuties shared stories and observations from the fray, their bond strengthened through shared adversity.
As they walked, one of the women, curiosity piqued by a noticeable change in Elder Rosaline's companions, posed a question. "Elder Rosaline, why is it that your beasts are now Black Dragon Tortoises? I remember you were accompanied by Thunder Dragons before."
Elder Rosaline, her face breaking into a warm smile at the question, nodded. "Yes, that's true. The Thunder Dragons were released by me some time ago. My talent underwent a mutation, which led me to change my approach and the beasts I tame," she explained, her tone reflecting a mix of nostalgia and acceptance of her evolved abilities.
