As they walked through the dew soaked grass, Kratos pulled Yuan aside.

"Here, take this." Yuan held up the bracelet. It was a simple silver band about as wide as his finger. Into it an oval-shaped, pale yellow stone had been set, which Yuan squinted at. "It's a receiver crystal. It will allow you to hear Noishe, Vayla and me speaking telepathically. It means that if we need to talk to you without Mithos or Martel hearing, we can."

Yuan put the bracelet on.

"Will I be able to speak telepathically to you?"

"Unfortunately, no. The only way we can hear you is if we're listening out for you. If you want us to start listening, catch our attention and do this." Kratos brought his right hand up and idly scratched the edge of his right ear, then brought his hand forward to tug once on the loose hair at the side of his face.

Yuan copied the first part of the signal, but couldn't do the second as all of his hair was tied back. He untied his hair and retied it, leaving a section of it loose to hang down the right-hand side of his face. The problem now was that it was too long and looked silly. He frowned at his uncooperative hair, pulled out his dagger, and hacked off the hair he'd just tied back before he copied the signal again.

"That right?"

Kratos stared at him blankly for a moment before bursting out laughing at what his friend had just done.

"Y-you cut off the wrong bit of hair!!"

Yuan scratched the back of his head and discovered the mess his dagger had left.

"...Oops..."
