"...Yeah. So, how are you going to put all the elements in the paper?" Mirai asked.

"Like this." Chastity said, she swapped what hand she was holding the paper with, then tensed the left side of her body up. Gritting her teeth and almost screwing her eyes shut as the left arm- where the vine had been growing started glowing. Energy traveled down that arm and towards the paper. "I-... noticed a bit ago, we can channel elements into objects as well.
For example, that one woman was channeling negation into that blade she was holding. I was thinking... I should be able to-..." Chastity then paused. She stopped focusing and the glowing ceased. The paper continued to glow as well.
"That's annoying." Chastity commented, clearly displeased. "It doesn't look like it's that easy, then." She let go of the paper and the glowing ceased immediately, it fell down to the floor below her- dropping between the floorboards into the water below.

"...You could ask Hannah to pull the elements out of you before she does anything or ask Magna to help you out." Mirai suggested.

"I don't want to ask Hannah to do anything." Chastity stated as firmly as possibe. "Especially not right now.
Those horsemen are still watching, I'm sure. Things could've gone bad perhaps if that battle continued, but I'm not out of the water yet.
... I'll see what I can do in the morning." She decided.

Mirai nodded...and then realized what could happen if Hannah did teleport the elements to her while Isa still had them.
"...I need to check up on Isa." Mirai decided.

"...You should." Chastity agreed. "I'll... Well, I'll do something, at any rate."
... On the second floor, behind her door, Hannah stood in a dark room with her back against the wall, the only light source being the flowers covering her and her glowing purple eyes.
Chastity looked over her shoulder, at the door Hannah had stepped through, for only a moment.

Mirai left the building, heading back into the jungle to the spot he left Isa at.

As he did, Chastity took a few quiet steps, over a hole in the floor and out of the building.
Even though it was dark, light from the inside of the building framed her as she ran a hand along the edge of the doorframe. She moved her bloody arm, with the vine and the elements to her hair, grasping what little hair was still held in that bun before letting it and the vague remnants of a braid loose.
She lifted her head and saw two horses... lifted both of her hands up, forming a frame with her index fingers and thumb. The horsemen of war and famine stared down at the building behind her. The horseman of war noticed her and gave her a little wave of his fingers.
Chastity stopped making the frame in order to reciprocate.
"... Me and Hannah can see you because of Aera's element, but Mirai. You're letting him see you." Chastity stated, "Quite cruel of you."
Neither horseman responded. Chastity stepped back and looked up as high as she could.
"... I wonder how you feel about all of this...
It must hurt, being unable to do anything until it's already over." She said, to the horsemen.
---
Isa was not exactly where she had been left. In the time he'd been gone she'd climbed up a tree.
"Ah, Mirai." Isa said, as he approached, swinging her legs as she sat on a branch.

"...What are you doing in that tree?" Mirai asked.

"Well, I thought..." Isa pointed at the lock. "With this thing, I can't exactly turn invisible. And, like, I thought it'd just negate the elements too, but I couldn't turn into Murasaki or Amanda or whoever, so, I settled for the next best hiding method. Climbing into a tree, like Cherie does."
She shrugged. "...Best I had on short notice, all of those horse guys were there, so I didn't want to be out in the open."

"...Yeah. Those guys are hanging around, waiting for someone to die. And Hannah is considering using the elements to end the war in her own way but she doesn't know how yet." Mirai said.

"... Okay, after all of this, I'm actually going to be annoyed if we just go with my plan." Isa said.

“She is not considering that, but…she used Aera’s power to see the possibility of bringing all the elements together by using the full power of teleportation. Chastity is trying to pull the elements out of herself.” Mirai added.

"..." Isa looked at Mirai. She pulled a leaf out of the tree and ate it. "So, what's she going to do, then?"

“I don’t know yet, she went to sleep.” Mirai said.
