After merging with Tessa, I slipped away and ran back to our room as fast as I could. I threw myself on the bed, hoping to get some rest, but no such luck. Almost as soon as my head hit the pillow, I heard someone knocking at the door.

"Who could that be?" I muttered and opened it.

To my surprise, there stood Spati, Moonsong, and a girl who I didn't recognize, but who reminded me of Hela.

"What's up?" I asked them, "and who's she?"

"This is Ariel," Spati told me.

"Well, that answers one of my questions, I guess that will have to do. Now, who are you looking for? Me or Tessa?"
