Today was the day.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" The Witch of Sloth, Sehkmet, asked her surrogate Daughter.
Typhon, the Witch of Pride, just turned 18 a few weeks ago. On her Birthday, She decided that she would be leaving the Mansion for a while.
Subaru and the others Witches were taken aback by this statement, but Typhon explained her reasoning. She had realized that just punishing Sinners was no longer something she wanted to do with her life, but it was all she had known. So, Typhon decided to go on a Journey alone, and allow her to figure things out and find out what she wanted to do.
Typhon decided that she would be going to the Isle, a tropical and prehistoric Island that was home to many endangered Animal species, and was a prime vacation spot not under the control of any Kingdom.
Typhon was wearing a larger size of her white dress she wore all the time as a kid, and her dark green hair had grown to shoulder length. The Witch was holding a bag that contained everything she need for her trip.
"I'm sure Mom." The Witch of Pride said with a sad smile. Typhon was sad that she was leaving her family, if only for a while, but she needed to do this.
All the Witches(and Warlock) of Sin were at the port near Lugunica. They were here to see Typhon off on her journey, and they made sure she had enough food and money.
Daphne was currently crying through her blindfold, as her Sister-Figure was about to leave.
Carmilla, who was wearing a cloak to avoid anyone seeing her, was also crying a bit, but it could just be because of her soft nature.
Echidna was mostly unaffected, at least on the outside, but would secretly miss Typhon a great deal.
Minerva was there with smile. She was glad Typhon wanted to try and be something she wanted besides a judge, jury, and executioner, but the Wrathful Witch will still miss the Youngest Sin very much.
Subaru and Satella were trying not to cry, but it wasn't easy. The married couple were currently with their two Quarter Elf children. One was a 6 year old girl with long black hair and amethyst eyes, her name was Altara. The other was a 3 year old boy Satella was holding in her arms, he had spikey white hair and browns eyes, his name was Rigel.
The Witch most sad to see Typhon go was the Witch of Sloth herself. Sehkmet had always been extremely lazy, but if Typhon was involved with something, she got serious. The Slothful Witch was the closest thing Typhon had to a mother, since her real mother died during Childbirth.
"Auntie Ty, do you really have to go?" Altara asked her surrogate Aunt. To Altara and Rigel, all the Witches are their aunts and family. Although this made a bit of joke in which Altara sometimes calls Sehkmet 'Grandma', something she did not appreciate.
Typhon kneeled down and patted her surrogate Neice's head. "Don't worry Al, I'll be back before you know it, and I'll only be gone for a month."
"Well, we better not keep you waiting. Your boat is about to leave soon." Echidna pointed out.
Typhon turned to her boat which was about to leave in a few minutes, and then turned back to her family.
With a sigh, Typhon decided that it was time to go. "Well, I guess this is goodbye for now."
"You better write to me when you get there! And let me know if there anything tasty on the Isle!" Daphne said.
Typhon smiled at her Sister figure and best Friend. "Don't worry, I will."
"Have a safe trip Typhon, I hope you find what you're looking for." Carmilla spoke up. The Witch of Lust had gotten more confident over the years, but she was still rather timid.
"Thanks Carmilla, I hope so too." Typhon replied.
"I better not hear that you dismembered anyone while you're there!... but be sure to take care of yourself, Ok Ty?" Minerva stated.
"I promise I won't tear apart anyone while I'm there... unless they deserve it." Typhon gave a sly grin to her fellow witch, who looked a bit annoyed, but her smiled returned.
"Goodbye Typhon. If you find anything interesting on the Isle, bringing it back to me for examination would be a great favor for me." Echidna said, making her ongoing desire for knowledge clear, especially since she had never visited the Isle before.
"Sure thing Dona." Typhon closed her eyes at the request, but she wouldn't mind bringing back a souvenir for Dona.
"Safe Journeys Typhon, I wish you the best of luck on your journey." Satella stated with a smile. Although Satella was not a Witch in this life, she was still family to Typhon, and that would never change.
"Thanks Tella, and good luck watching these two while I'm gone." Typhon smiled, while ruffling Altara's hair, much to the Quarter Elf's displeasure.
"It's not gonna be the same without you Typhon, but I understand that you need to do this. Much like how coming to this world made me who I am today, you need to find you own path too, and when you come back, we'll all be here to welcome you with open arms." Subaru said with a sad smile. He was sad that Typhon was leaving, if only for a while, but he understood more than anyone she needed to do this, and he'd support her every step of the way.
Typhon started to get teary-eyed, but stayed strong. "Thanks Baru. Keep everyone safe while I'm gone. Ok?"
The Warlock of Envy smiled and gave a nod.
The last Witch to say her goodbye was Sehkmet. Who brought her Daughter in for a hug, who gladly returned it.
"Safe journeys, my litte Typhon." Sehkmet said, as she actually cried that her baby was leaving her for a month, but she had to accept that Typhon needed to do this, or she would never be able to grow.
"Goodbye Mom, I'll miss you all." Typhon said her last goodbye to her Family for quite a while.
Letting go each other, Typhon turned around and ran to the boat to get on.
The Witches and the Natsuki family watched as Typhon had gotten on board the boat, and was at the very back, waving them all goodbye.
"BYE EVERYONE!!! I'LL SEE YOU ALL IN A MONTH!!! I'LL MISS YOU ALL!!!" Typhon yelled to make sure they all heard, to which the Witches waved back.
"OH YEAH! HEY BARU, I EXPECT TELLA TO BE PREGNANT AGAIN WHEN I GET BACK!!!" Typhon yelled with a cheeky grin, causing the Married couple to blush like crazy, and the other Witches except for Sehkmet to giggle.
As the boat started to leave, Typhon turned around and made her way to the front of the boat.
This was her Journey. On the Isle, Typhon would discover what she wanted to do with her life, to be something her Father could be proud of.
"Alright then, let's see what the Isle has in store for me." The Witch of Pride was excited.
This was Typhon's Journey of Pride, and she'd be damned if she didn't finish it.
