[ Think of how funny it would be if Tiamat disappeared, and not only does the coin drop to the floor, but also a bag full of severed limbs. Kido would have fainted on the spot.

Thankfully, the thought doesn't ever come to mind, especially when Kaede brings up the castle and Kido turns around, trying to find what direction it is, but she can't tell when she's surrounded by trees instead of flying above it.

What she can tell, though, is that the rumbling of the landslide has already subsided, which means either the entire mountain has collapsed, or... no, Kido can be as optimistic as she wants, but optimism doesn't equate reality. ]

I'm not too hopeful, but we should check it out anyways. Are you okay to keep going, Kaede? Or we can turn back, and try this again another night.
