Vera happily hummed as she cooked Lux's favorite dishes.
Just before midnight, Lux returned home from Elysium with tears in his eyes. Eiko was still crying when Vera entered the training hall. The baby slime jumped into her Grandma's arms in order to cry her heart out more.
The wise grandma didn't ask why her grandson and her great granddaughter were crying. She just held both of them in a loving embrace, and told them, "Welcome home."
Perhaps due to the exhaustion from their journey and sadness, the two fell asleep two hours after their arrival. Even after the sun's crown peaked and appeared in the East, they were still in bed.
Vera didn't mind and allowed the two to sleep as long as they wanted.
"It's done." Vera smiled after she had finished cooking everything that Lux and Eiko liked to eat. There was beef stew, grilled fish, chicken soup with vegetables, grilled corn with butter, and freshly baked bread.
