Ahead of the crowd, two women strode side-by-side. One Calla did not recognize - she looked quite
ordinary, with black hair and tanned skin, she could have been anyone of Vilandia, really. She wore a
plain black dress and her feet were bare upon the cobbled streets, but that was all Calla really noticed
about her - the woman at her side caught Calla's full attention.




She was tall - quite tall, in fact, and had fire-red hair. Her skin was the color of cream, and she wore
some kind of scale armor over her body which fit skin-tight. Calf-high boots and forearm-high gloves
completed her garb, and she carried a snow-white lance casually across her shoulder. A warrior-maid, of
some kind... Obviously from the East... Probably Arcadia...




"It can't be..." Calla muttered, staring. "It just can't..."




"Calla!" the woman called, smiling broadly and waving.




"S-Sasha?!" Calla called back, her eyes wide.




"Yes! It's me! I'm back!" Sasha called, grinning.
Calla stared in shock as Sasha walked up and stood before her, the other villagers gathered round and
the strange woman in the black dress standing beside her. "And this is Marilith, my sister."




"You... You have a sister?!"




Marilith smiled. "We are not sisters of the blood, but sisters of the soul. It's quite a long story."
