Amiya launched into an explanation of their entry into town, the Phantasm Beast attack, the destruction of buildings, and other beasts rushing toward the east gate. Her words came quickly, efficiently summarizing the chaos.
Mayor Nigen trembled slightly as he processed this, and then he sighed deeply. "Thank you for helping take the beasts down. You didn't have to help, but you-"
Marie smiled as she cut him off gently. "Janus and Amiya are our friends, and their home is important to us. Of course, we'll stand up to protect them, and besides, this is what an Inquisitor should do."
Joseph nodded. "We couldn't ignore what was happening."
Nigen blinked in surprise, his gaze shifting to Amiya. She was blushing, looking down at her feet, while he sighed again, but this time a smile tugged at his lips. "I'm glad Janus met such wonderful friends."
