Re: Gemini Revisited (Castea and Pollusia)
"Haven should be coming us soon enough...as for how we found you..."
The guard gestures towards Eva before continuing, to indicate who she was referring to.
"Apparently Miss Psychic Know-It-All there saw where each of you would be in advance with her abilities. Then she started sending groups of us out to where we'd find you. Course, we're probably the lucky ones given the transmissions on the radio. Some of the teams have been searching for their targets for hours without much success. Mainly as the kid's visions don't specify 'time' it seems."

Rua appeared to think for a bit, trying to decide what would be the best response to such a promise. ...Well, I'm still a goner even if I didn't accept, so it wouldn't really make a difference. Better to make her happy so that I can have a bit more freedom. Besides, it's not like she can really hold me to it, right? Having made up her mind, the red-haired demon attempted to make what was to her a "casual response", seem as sincere as possible.
"Yes, I can promise that. I promise that I will behave myself, serve, and obey you and your sister and never use my gifts without permission..."
However, the instant she uttered the words, the collar around her neck began to glow red-hot, causing her no small degree of pain as reached for it with her chained arms in an attempt to pry it off. When the object around her neck finally "cooled down", once could see that various "runes" had now been etched on it, apparently as a result of Eva's abilities once again...
(Now for a fun fact, this skill of Eva's ingame wise is actually a variant of an awakening skill usable by certain future bosses in future missions. "Chains of Punishment (Binding Variant)". What this implies storyline wise however, I will not disclose.)
