Isa smiled at Suzanne, "Oh, we can sit down? Thanks!" She said, sitting next to Mirai.
Suzanne nodded slowly, before sitting across from them. "... So...
Thank you, for dealing with her."

"...Was she always a terrible person?" Mirai asked.

"...Maybe she was, maybe she wasn't. I can't really be sure myself." Suzanne admitted. "...At the very least, she never wanted to be anything less than terrible to me. Can't say I had much of a reason to see any good in her, if it did exist.
Hmph, this entire family's full of terrible people anyway. She's hardly any different from my brothers in that regard." Suzanne muttered.
Isa kept quiet, looking at Mirai out of the corner of her eyes.
She briefly looked back downstairs with her clairvoyance again, at the coffin that Hannah was being held in. Lydia was still seated as she had been earlier, but now Dorian had sat himself down on one of the unmarked barrels, he looked to just be tired of standing in place.

Cello was leaning against the coffin, petting one of the mice who was sitting on his shoulder.

Isa focused intently on Hannah...
While nobody was looking, Hannah vanished. But just as quickly as she did, Isa set up a false image of the maiden to take her place.
Neither Lydia or Dorian were looking at her, thus neither had any reason to notice the change. The tubes were still glowing, even without Hannah there, at least for the time being.

Cello was distracted by his pet to notice that Hannah vanished.

Isa kept most of her focus on those three, just in case they did notice. As Hannah appeared, hidden behind a bush at the back of the manor.
"I did it." Isa whispered to Mirai alone, zoning back in to the situation in the dining room, where Suzanne was chugging down her lemonade.

Mirai din't say anything to Isa to give it away and tried not to think about it before looking at Suzanne.
"Is your dad awful?" Mirai asked.

"...All he cares about is his dead wife." Suzanne said, drinking the rest of the lemonade before slamming the mug down on the table. "Well, he cares more about feeling sad about his dead wife than he does about his dead wife."
"...You mean your mother?" Isa asked.
"Yeah, her." Suzanne said. "Don't even get why, as soon as Deborah left he decided he didn't give a shit anymore."

"Sounds like he went through a lot." Mirai commented.

Suzanne scoffed. "Try being raised by him.
He had all these grand ideas about what his kids were going to be. Strong warriors, fierce kings, powerful mistresses, blah de fucking blah. He got what he wanted alright. He gets to indulge in his misery and my brothers get to run wild wherever they think there's battles to be won or power to take."

“What did your mom want?” Mirai asked.

Suzanne had no expression on her face for a good moment, she turned her head up and looked into the golden eyes of her mother in that portrait of her parents on the wall.
"...What did you want?" She then asked.

At this time, the tubes stopped glowing.

"Looks like the power transfer is done." Cello commented, turning to the coffin.

"Hm, about time." Dorian blinked.
"So... w-what do we do with her now...?" Lydia asked. "We can't just k-kill her, can we?"
"I'll contact Suzanne. Lydia, you go make sure everything is on the other side, Cello, accompany her." Dorian said, closing his eyes as he folded his arms.
"Oh. U-Uh, okay..." Lydia blinked, standing up. She turned to Cello, waiting for him to move first.
