Redpine City, Helia's Castle
After Vaan returned to the castle's library, he gave Cyrena Ashenborn self-study time to catch up on all of her neglected fields of study as there was no need to personally teach her the basics, something she could learn on her own.
Fortunately, Cyrena Ashenborn agreed without complaints. Restoring her hope in magic had certainly made her more willing to learn other things besides potioneering.
Nevertheless, after getting Cyrena Ashenborn's agreement to study on her own, Vaan succeeded in freeing up his schedule to do other things for the day.
Vaan first headed to the library's entrance to reclaim his fang daggers and utility belt.
After collecting his belongings, he thought about his next destination when Hester Thornton arrived to keep him company.
"I hope I am not bothering you with my presence, Teacher Cadieux. However, I do have a duty to keep you safe," Hester Thornton stated, hoping for Vaan's understanding.
