An Unwelcome Guest

Two days had passed since Hyuga took on his first mission as a mage of Archer's Cross. Although he did come back with some injuries, his mission was a success. Hyuga fully recovered now, thought he should take on another mission. Skimming the job board for another mission to take,his mind kept wondering off, thinking about the experiments his father had done, not letting him put much attention to the requests posted on the board. He began to think about the multiple mages now turned into a Second Generation Dragon Slayer just like him. Having been tortured just like he, himself was. In that moment he decided he must meet them once more. Hopefully apologize for the actions of his father and himself, but mostly to see how they were fairing. He knew, no apology would ever be enough and some might even turn hostile towards him, but he decided to stick to his plan anyway. Having already earned the forgiveness of Kalina Inari, Hyuga sought to face his next challenge and seek out the person that was confronted by his new guild. His next meeting had to be with Iridesence Jiao, but unfortunately he had no idea where she had gone to. He mostly knew where the other Dragon Slayers had ended up, but never found any information about Iridesence. His only chance for a clue was the very person that had faced her. The Master of the Guild, Valencia Morningheart. Hyuga quickly made his way to meet the Guild Master in hopes he might gather some information.

Once Hyuga found her, he quickly approached her and knelt down in front of her once more. "Lady Morningheart! Could I have a minute of your time?" said Hyuga.

A little bit surprised from the sudden request. Valencia replied "Hyuga, we went over this. You don't have to kneel before me to ask me a question or to talk to me. Please stand."

"Ah, My apologies Lady Morningheart." Replied Hyuga as he was standing.

With a warm smile Valencia continued "Now, What can I help you with today? Would you like to take on another request? Oh, and remember, It's Valencia. Just Valencia Okay."

Hyuga with a worried look replied " I don't mean to bring back foul memories, but after you fought with Iridesence Jiao, would you happen to know what became of her?"
