That night, Aegis went back to the academy. She had a very important person to speak to.
See, she knew how to take down a griffin, she'd done so in the game, but she figured why not ask for more specialized advice?
And, it just so happened that a certain ancient queen had also fought griffins in the past. How fortunate for Aegis.
"Aegis." Rosanna smiled. "What brings you here at this hour?"
"I need advice."
"Oh? On what subject?"
Aegis sat down cross-legged across from her.
"Griffins. How do I kill one?"
Rosanna's eyebrows rose.
"A griffin? My, that's quite the quarry. What prompted this sudden interest in monster hunting?"
"There's one terrorizing a village outside Rosevale. I figured I'd take care of it myself." Aegis shrugged. "You know. For the attention."
"How virtuous."
