One brings shadow, one brings light

[ Perhaps it is because she was distracted by other events going on around them all, but her understanding of the chain of events feels a bit muddled. Perhaps when the chance presents herself, she'll ask the Exarch to tell her a little bit more about it, if he is so inclined. But given how he seems to want to keep his secrets to himself and remain mysterious, she imagines he might not be. So for now, she leaves the subject alone. ]

It seems that whenever I do try and rest, even for a little, that's when trouble seems to start.

[ Not in every circumstance, of course, but she can't help but think that there's a pattern to the whole thing. Or maybe that's just what happens as part of being a Warrior of Light. ]

Perhaps, or perhaps I'll just end up taking a nap instead. [ She can just hear Alkaid expressing her resigned disapproval, but although she tries very hard, she would not call herself the most dedicated student. ]

Trouble is to be found in all places and at all times. One must learn to prioritize the trouble they will tackle. Perhaps you and your sister tackle far too much trouble and it leaves you in need of rest.

[ He shakes his head. ] Still, as ever, I find myself humbled and amazed by the feats the pair of you continue to achieve. A nap very well may be in order.

I... imagine that you and your sister do not sleep as often as perhaps you might. It may be easier now, with the night sky returned.

[ The Exarch smiles at her once more, however, before turning back towards the Crystal Tower. ] I thank you for your indulgences, K'thisru. No doubt the people of the Crystarium will enjoy the festivities tomorrow. I pray that you and your sister will attend and enjoy them as well.

And, be certain to pass my apologies along as well. I would dare not bring about your sister's ire for you returning to the Pendants soaking wet. [ The smile remains on his face even as a finger raises to his lips. Then, with a bow, he departs for the Tower. ]
