INSOMNIA

( cont from here )

[ Lunafreya nods in confirmation. Her family had not always been nobility, but had in fact been regarded highly. At some point they had married into nobility and their path had been set from there. Although, she is not sure that her bloodline would have continued on if they hadn't married into royalty. Turmoil had always set in, and seemed to only escalate once they had moved past the ancient times. ]

Yes. Though, I doubt you would find any news of them in the wide scale public news these days. [ Not since her mother's death. Her brother's marriage did little to garner attention, but, perhaps that was for the best. ] The status of noble hardly matters in today's modern era.

[ The minds of his friends being trapped? Her gaze wanders to the side as she ponders. That is certainly beyond what she is capable of healing. Her skill set was far removed from this conversation and she aimed to keep it that way. Atem had enough to weigh down on his shoulders. The last he needed was the awareness of her true title and full scope of her duty. He most certainly had a plan in mind to reverse the state his friends were in regardless. ]

Seto Kaiba is the one who has created the level of augmentation, has he not? [ Her expressions settles into something of a serious nature. She may not know the rules of this card game, or how to play it, but she certainly knows the names attached to it. It was brought to her attention after the tournaments grew far too popular. ] The game is far too dangerous to be treated the way it is -- regardless if technology had not been introduced. It would have been better if Maximilian Pegasus had never created it.

[ The drop of formality around the creator of the game certainly does not imply familiarity. Quite the opposite. Lunafeya believes the man to be a naive visionary who refused to see how ignorant he had become. The details of the Egyptian Gods are not ones she knows, but, she would be far from surprised to learn of such things. Enough of the creatures in the game are depictions of real ones.

She glances over the menu before giving him a gentle smile. ]

Chamomile tea.

[ Atem just folds his hands together then as he ponders Lunafreya's words, knowing that she is ultimately correct. But what he and Yugi do isn't the only important thing. Lunafreya and her responsibilities are significant as well, and he's made up his mind that he won't ever view them as anything less than what they are. Her role might be passive, but that doesn't mean it's any less meaningful.

As for the Dark Magician and the assistance he offers, Atem is grateful for it as always. He's a mainstay of his deck, but he's much more than that, as Atem is beginning to realize. ]

I have a feeling that we may need both of you before the end. [ The end of what? This tournament? Perhaps... But there always seems to be some great challenge that rises up even as one is concluding.

Atem might not be able to see the future or know what is coming next, but he just has a feeling that both Lunafreya and the Dark Magician will have important roles to play as events unfold.

.... Or perhaps it's only wishful thinking talking. ]

[ Lunafreya can only begin to guess at what the importance is between the spirit of the Millennium Puzzle and the Dark Magician. It most certainly a soul bond, but it is far deeper and ancient. In many ways, it reminds her of the bond between her and Gentiana. However, the Pharaoh is far older than her, and thus it makes their bond all the more impressive.

The Magician nods firmly in resolve. Lunafreya, of course, is unable to hear what Atem has said. All she can do is guess by the reactions of the spirit beside her and the teenager who stands almost star struck by the display around him. ]

Well, we might need the help of both of you through this tournament. [ Yugi paraphrases what Atem has said. ] There is someone after the Egyptian God Cards, but... there's a more personal reason that we entered Battle City.

[ Lunafreya looks to the Magician once again. His expression falls ever so slightly, but his gaze says that he has far more knowledge of the situation. Her head tilts in a question she knows that he will not answer. A glance to the side is given before her attention returns back to Yugi. ]

Should you and Ousama ever need my help, then please, call upon me.
