The empress sat there sipping the pixie brew, lost in deep thought when Amberosia entered the room; sitting down across from her. 

"Empress?" 

 Ralvania jumped a little before looking at her.

"Huh? What now?" She replied.

  "I just wanted to know if you're okay." She stated.

"Yeah, I'm fine why wouldn't I be?" She replied.

"I just notice that you haven't left the castle since we brought you back...from there." She stated gently.

I don't want to go anywhere." She said flatly.

"So you're never going to leave the castle again?" She asked.

"What's this about?" She asked giving her a scoldinglook.

"I just think you should take a couple of days off and get out of Goblin's Hollow." She stated.

"Where do you suggest that I go?" The empress asked, taking a sip of the brew.

"Go see Pandora or Lily." She told her.

"It's been a while since I went to the Fairy Kingdom." She said, voice trailing off.

"That's an idea." The sorceress commented.

"If I say that I'll think about it, will you drop the issue?" Ralvania asked refilling her mug again.

"Yes.." 

"I'll think about it." 

"Okay, pour me a cup?" 

"Anytime my young friend." She replied pouring a mug and setting it in front of her.

"So how are things with you and Magellan?" She teased.

"Oh hush up, we're friends that's all." Amberosia retorted.

   The empress cackled with laughter, glad to feel at home again..
