When I entered the room where everybody was waiting for me, I found most of the "main crew" with a few new additions. There was Draugann, the old grandma from Benladann's village, Yuki, the former monster pet that I had tamed which evolved into a beast-kin girl and gained her independence (not like I was forcing her to do anything too much), Rakasha, a Blacksmith friend I made in the Ice Moon Sect who was mature and knowledgably about the world and other things as he traveled through it, Tisha, an Ice Elf Warrioress, Pekora, a Rabbit-kin Beast woman that was an exceptional shaman and spiritualist, and very intelligent, Belle, my dream spirit and the clone of the original Venerable, Yukihime, the ancestor of the Winter Lotus sect and Vasilisius, the Ancestor of the Jade Snake Sect.
Children were not invited here as it was a delicate subject. It could be said that Yuki was a kid but she refused to go away and ended getting inside anyways…
