She served as the curator of the Necropolis, specializing in spatial e structure "D-don't say that – we don't knohat kind of person he is! He ht be wonderful!" said the woman beside her She was a much smaller wo aura with a shy but big s with a glowing blue ower head in front of her Her garb consisted of a chest covering and ankle length skirt ether with bones Unlike with Medula, this outt bared quite a bit of her tanned skin

Aldrich and gave hi the Deathguard I look forward to working with you!"

Medula shrugged "What she said" "Why are you two here?" said Aldrich "To x Volantis, of course," said the Death Lord "My powers can destroy, but restoration is not my specialty These two are far better at that" "I see," said Aldrich "Medula as an Archdee of

Volantis, and Wai'Ki's spiritwith Volantis's soul" "Precisely," said the Death Lord "My spiritto sco at, but it is still at the level of a novice compared to Wai'Ki" "Oh, don't say that, you're plenty special too, Melly!" said Wai'Ki "Melly? That's your name?" said Aldrich to the Death Lord He had never actually known the Death Lord's name in the lore because she was just known as, well, the Death Lord "W-what?" The Death Lord was ustered "No, that is a simple nickna of someone my status?" "No, I don't particularly care," said Aldrich "Alright, enough chatter," said Medula She rubbed her forehead "I have enough research and tower et on with this You-,"

Medula back with her coat Medula just stared tiredly as she was lifted up and placed behind the Death Lord like an unruly puppy "She has not learned how to lter her thoughts Nor has she learned a shred of decorum, no ht, Volantis must come o for this procedure to continue" "I understand," said Aldrich He willed Volantis to detach, and the De Armor' said the Demonwill

Aldrich watched as the ar o of his body "M-ive you your privacy!" Valera put her hands in front of her eyes, though noticeably, she left a gap between her ngers to peek

And as the arlory As a skeleton, of course "I still feel strangely naked, even as a skeleton," commented Aldrich as he looked down at his body of bare bone Then, his lowing green energy that covered his lower body "Much better"

Valera sighed in mild disappoint now," said Medula as she twirled her hand A faint purple outline covered Volantis's now empty arht in front of Medula "Wai'Ki, get over here and be ready" "Yes!"
