Hey all, Yoshi428 here. For those of you who saw the first copy, I didn't mean to send the source coding and I really apologize ^^ Without further ado, enjoy!
*Tressa's POV*
A year has passed since the travellers have been on their journeys. Laughs have been shared, tears have been shed, memories have been made. Their bonds live on in their hearts, which leads a certain merchant to leave home once again.
"Bye Ma, bye Pa!" I said with joy.
"Bye Tressa!" they said back to me.
I smelled the fresh air after a good night's rest. It's been a while since I've been on my journey, I still remember the day that I left town for the first time. The first thing I did after leaving town was making my way towards Atlasdam. I paid the professor a visit by sneaking into one of this classes while he was teaching (thanks therion for the stealth tips).
"Class dismissed!" Cyrus said as the students left the room soon after.
"Morning Cyrus!" I said in a cheerful tone.
"Professor Cyrus to you, and what were you doing in the middle of my class?" he replied
"Cmon, professor.. Don't you think we're past this point by now?" I whined.
"Maybe I'll let this slide…" he replied
After chatting for a bit, Cyrus came along and we headed to Flamesgrace to visit who has been like an older sister to me during our journey.
"Is it just me or is it colder here than usual?" I said shivering.
"Here, take this." Cyrus said as he gave me his cape.
"Wow, thanks!" I said.
We were on the way to the Flamesgrace Cathedral when a snowball hit the back of Cyrus's head which made him face plant into the untouched snow. I turned around to a really worried Ophilia and Lianna.
"P-professor?! I'm so sorry I didn't mean to hit you!" Ophilia apologized.
"Nah, he'll be alright. If he can be oblivious to women trying to get him, he can survive a snowball to the head." I replied.
Cyrus eventually got up and tried to join in the snowball fight by trying to make the "perfect" snowball but of course, all the ladies even myself just kept pelting him. After having a bit of fun in the snow we went inside the cathedral to talk.
"I'm really sorry for that professor…" Ophilia said in a saddened tone.
"Dear Ophilia, it's alright. Though I don't know how we got through our journey with little miss energy here.." Cyrus said drinking warm tea.
"Hey, you like my energy and you can't deny it!" I said sulking a bit.
Both Ophilia and Lianna laughed.
"What brings you here to Flamesgrace anyways?" Lianna asked.
"Well… You see…" I started "I wanted to get the party back together mainly to catch up on what's happened in the past year, as well as maybe go on an all-new adventure?"
"Tressa…" Ophilia said.
"I think that's a good idea." said Lianna cleaning up after the small group.
"You sure Anna?" Ophilia said worriedly
"I mean look at where I am now." Cyrus interjected.
"Professor, when did you turn into Therion?" Ophilia asked.
"You have a good point." Cyrus said before leaving the room.
"So what do you say?" I said with anticipation.
"I'll be fine Phili, go enjoy yourself. You've been here nonstop ever since your first adventure." Lianna reassured.
"Oh alright…" said Ophilia after a sigh.
After Ophilia made her preparations, we headed outside only to narrowly dodge incoming snowballs.
"Darn it, I thought I would get you both this time!" Cyrus said
Ophilia and I looked at each other and after sharing a familiar smile we thought it was time for this professor to learn some new things.
