BAM!
Rui activated Flux Earther, harmlessly dispersing the energy of her charge, as he glanced down at her with a puzzled expression.
This was not what he expected.
In the place of a cold and apathetic was a delighted and ecstatic person.
"You returned!" She exclaimed. "And as a Master! How did you do that so quickly?!"
Her voice was one of joy, one that did not hide how pleased she was to see him. She did not hide how shocked she was at the fact that he had reached the Master Realm when he was just a Squire just two decades ago.
"K'Mala…" Rui murmured as he studied her with a quizzical expression. "You seem to do well these days. Congratulations on having become the tribe chief, however late I am."
She got up from him, smiling. "That happened ten years ago. It's not even special, just an annoying position with lots of responsibility and work."
