Lilith is gone.

[If you don't know Maketh well, the redness around her eyes might be mistaken for a restless night and not from crying.]

The patrol roster will be adjusted accordingly. That is all.

She was resilient enough to find joy here, darling. Lilith is someone who can wrench happiness out of any existence.

[She tries to sound cheerful, but it's not very successful. Bianca's voice drops.]

My promises mean nothing here and now, while I am trapped this way. But when I can get free from this place - I have a timeship, Maketh. It can move between universes - which is obviously why Hadriel's gods excluded it.

But one day, I will be in a position to bring you to where she is.

[Maketh doesn't say anything for a moment.]

You would do that for me?

[It's...what does someone say to that?]

[wormintheglass]

I can't, not yet. We are all in the same cage, for now, and what is my promise worth?

[Bianca, at least, can say she knows herself, even if she often ignores what she knows.

But she also always votes for Love, and for this reason she means what she says.]

Nevertheless, it's yours. I would and I will.

[It's for the best that they're not doing this in person. Maketh would hate for Bianca to know what it looks like when she cries.

When she finally does respond, her voice is small, but clear.]

You are an...honorable person. Better than you could ever know...

[wormintheglass]

I am not.

But I've had some good examples of how to be.

[Maketh huffs at that, not quite a laugh.]

What strange paths we take.
