With endless theories swarming throughout her head, the elf eventually drifted off to sleep. She woke up bright and early with her insatiable curiosity begging for another request from Inspector Nilan to be released. Giddy with excitement, she got ready for the day and hurried out the door. She hadn't even bothered to brew herself a cup of coffee. But, much to her dismay, when she arrived a the guild, there was nothing from him to be found. There wasn't a request put out by a scientist either, or really anything mentioning the odd plant life in Orchidia at the moment. Although she really wanted to do something in relations to that, that didn't mean she couldn't take a request. So, the elf decided on doing one for a sweet old lady she had met on a previous request. This time though, she was the client, and needed help with her son, Mitya Noran.
Supposing that this request would be rather interesting, Kerii took it off the board and strode over towards Mitya and Rynah's apartment. Walking into the complex, she could smell cookies baking. As she got closer to the apartment, the scent got stronger, and it eventually led to a door that was creaked open. The elf knocked on the door before pushing it open further to see the familiar old woman sitting in an armchair. "Oh, I remember you!" Rynah said, slowly getting up. "Come in, let me make you some tea." The elf walked in and shut the door behind her. The woman began to fill the tea kettle. "You know, I always used to make tea for my dear Mitya when he was younger. Even as a boy, he liked it even better than hot cocoa. We would often chat and play little games as we drank together... Gosh, it seemed like only yesterday. He has grown up so much, but he's sadly not the same person he was when he was younger." At first, Rynah seemed rather happy while reminiscing, but realizing what kind of relationship she used to have with her son, her eyes began to well with tears, and before she knew it, started sobbing.
