"Everything is the same. Every investment is equal." Supreme Loyalist Kreutzer said.

"The Orasanian Empire has many investments thus far for our entire home island." Supreme Loyalist Aris spoke up.

"I've known about the Orasanian Empire since I was growing up." said Christy. "Our resources do come in handy, it's been managed for many years."

"So, everything is fine and well then." Supreme Loyalists Makias said.

"We are agreed." Supreme Loyalists Vassili said.

Christy and the Supreme Loyalists exchange looks at each other.

"Agreed." Christy said. "And the meeting is finished."

Shortly after . . .

Christy is at the hologram computer generator with her arms folded, looking at everything.

Supreme Loyalist Kreutzer slowly walks up next to her. "Your personal assistants Vek and Bassea, have been doing well in your absence."

"They have?" Christy said.

"Of course. They write down notes and other things that we discuss." Supreme Loyalists said.

"Vek and Bassea tells me through an update." Christy said.

"Vek and Bassea are loyal to you, Christiana." Supreme Loyalist Kreutzer said.

"I know." Christy said.

Supreme Loyalist Kreutzer and Christy exchange small smiles at each other and he walks away.

HOME ISLAND OF MOUNT ORASANI -- CHRISTY'S BEDCHAMBER

Later that day, Christy slowly walks inside her bedchamber and sees Klaus reclining on the couch, drawing in his sketchbook.

"How was the meeting?" Klaus asked.

"It was good." Christy said to her husband and gently closes the double doors. "You're really here."

"Or I could be an astral projection." Klaus said.

"You're not an astral projection because I could sense it and you're not holding the crystal prism in your hand." Christy said with her arms folded.

"Smarty-brain." Klaus said teasing her with a small smile. And glances at her flame gown. "Nice gown."

"Thanks." Christy said to him. "Have you ever thought about making an art book?"

"Why would I make an art book?" Klaus asked.

"For your art." Christy said. "You could make an art book with all of your canvas paintings in it and you already have your art gallery, and people here at Mount Orasani adores your paintings."

Klaus ponders about it.

"It's just an idea, that's all." Christy said.

"I'll think about it." Klaus said. "What would my art book be titled?"

Christy unfolds her arms and slowly walks up to Klaus and sits down next to him on the couch.

"Your art book would be named, " 'The Fruits Of Your Labor' ". Christy said.

Klaus chuckled softly to himself. "That's an interesting title."

"Speaking of which, when is your next art gallery?" Christy asked.

"I don't know, I have other things to handle." Klaus said, getting up and slowly walks over to the window.

Christy notices something off about her husband. "Klaus? What's wrong?"

"I've been relaxed." Klaus said and looks at her with a soft look. "I appreciate that you've been convincing me to try new things, but I have to revert back to myself."

"I get it." Christy said and slowly walks up to him, gently puts her hand on his right arm. "You're Klaus Mikaelson. The You do the dirty work whenever it's necessary."

"Well, I wouldn't put it like that, but you do understand." Klaus said.

"Sure I do. I know you, and I know how you are whenever things are gonna get a little bit crazy." said Christy.

Klaus and Christy exchange soft chuckles with each other.

"You and Elijah do what you need to do to handle Eric and Nora and their True blood vampire army, and I'll handle the remote island." Christy said.

"Thank you." Klaus said, gently caress her right cheek with his hand.

"For what?" Christy asked, gently puts her hands on his chest.

"For always being there for me." Klaus said.

"You're welcome." Christy said.

Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other and gently leans their foreheads on each other's.

HOME ISLAND OF MOUNT ORASANI -- MARINA -- CAPTAIN BENJI'S BOAT YARD

That late afternoon, after Klaus had left, Christy walks onto the pier where Captain Benji's boats and his sailboat are parked next to each other.

Christy hears some music of violins coming from inside Benji's boat yard.

Christy slowly walks inside the dimly-lit room where she sees Captain Benji and his crew mates partying, dancing, eating and drinking their mugs of alcoholic wine.

Captain Benji dances atop the table with his mug. He takes swigs of his drink and notices Christy.

He gently leaps off the table and walks up to her.

"Christiana?" Captain Benji said.

"Hi, Benji." Christy greeted him with a small smile.

Captain Benji and Christy shares a hug.

"What brings you here to my boat yard?" Captain Benji asked.

"I just wanted to come by and see you." Christy said to him.

"Oh, that's thoughtful of you." Captain Benji said. "How are things with you?"

"It's good." Christy said and glances at Captain Benji's crew mates partying and dancing with each other. "You and your crew mates are enjoying a party."

"Yeah, whenever we can get a chance to do so." said Captain Benji.

"Anyhoo, I was just coming by to say "Hi" and to see you guys." Christy said.

"It was good to see you, Christiana." Captain Benji said.

"Okay." Christy said and she walks away.

ROUSSEAU'S

That evening, in the empty bar, Christy changed her clothes and sits at the bar counter with her bottle of Ale.

{Christy Outfit}

"Hi, Christy." Declan greeted her with a small smile, putting up some chairs atop the table.

"Hi, Declan." Christy greeted him back with a small smile. "Do you have any bread pudding?"

"I can make some for you and your daughters and save it in the fridge for you." Declan said.

"Okay, thanks." Christy said.

"Alright." Declan said and goes back to putting up chairs atop the tables.

Christy finishes her Ale and gets up, walking over to where Declan is and helps put up the chairs.

"Thanks." Declan said.

"You're welcome." Christy said.

Declan and Christy exchange small smiles at each other and continues putting up the chairs.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND

Later that night, in the upstairs bedroom of Klaus's and Christy's, Christy packs up her backpack for tomorrow morning's journey to the remote island of Isle Lavarath.

Finished packing her backpack, Christy notices three canvas paintings of herself.

The first canvas painting of her dressed up in her gamer-girl outfit with her hat.

The second one is of her dressed up in her flame black gown with her hair half up half down hairstyle.

And the third one is of her when she accepted her leadership position as an imperial captain; in her black shirt, pants, and her pair of black gloves with the late afternoon sky behind her with her bronze sword in hand.

Admiring her husband's canvas paintings, Christy small smiles to herself and walks away.

Shortly after . . .

Now, in the courtyard, Christy sits at the coffee table, studying the parchment map that has the Isle Lavarath.

"You ready for tomorrow morning?" Klaus asked, slowly walks inside the courtyard.

Christy glances up at her husband. "Yep, just looking at the map of Isle Lavarath."

"Isle Lavarath? That's a strange name for a remote island." said Klaus, sitting in the armchair.

"Yeah, it's an abandoned remote island. Who knows what's there." Christy said. And looks at Klaus again. "By the way, I saw your three canvas paintings. Even the one when I accepted my leadership position."

Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.

"I'm glad you like them." Klaus said. "And I've given it some thought about what you suggested about the art book."

Christy small smiles at him. "You're an amazing painter, Klaus. You should be proud of yourself."

"Oh, I am, Love. You convinced me." Klaus said.

"See? I can see it now, 'Klaus Mikaelson, the Great Artist', you're gonna be famous." Christy said.

Klaus and Christy exchange chuckles with each other.

Christy's phone buzzes on the table. She picks up her phone and looks at it.

Theseus

Christy answers her phone. "Hi, Theseus? Is everything okay?"

"Not necessarily, Milady. It's your grandfather, Dimitris, he just had a heart attack." A worried Theseus told her on the phone.

"Is he okay?" Christy asked, becoming worried about her grandfather.

"Your grandmother, Celia, and I have taken him to Giannis medical infirmary. I will update you when I receive more information." Theseus said.

"Okay." Christy said.

And Theseus hangs up the telephone.

Christy sets her phone back down on the table.

"Chris? What's wrong?" Klaus asked, concerned.

Christy looks at her husband with a worried expression on her face. "My grandpa had a heart attack."

Klaus and Christy exchange worried looks at each other.
