[Emilia family plot]
Pom-chan bows in obeisance to Sapphire's tombstone.
>Konnichiwa, Emilia-san
>It's been awhile, hasn't it, friend?
>I've read in the 'dirt sheets' that your soul has been imprisoned in a lantern and that the lantern is currently in the possession of your arch nemesis, the loathsome thief Steeli Yastuffi
The mere act of uttering Yastuffi's name causes Pom-chan's lips to curl in disgust.
>If I were a better friend and a better warrior I would rip your lantern from her filthy hands and beat her into unconsciousness with it
>Perhaps one day
>Or perhaps the rumours are untrue
>Perhaps it's silly for a janitor to put stock in the word of a dirt peddler
>On the subject of my janitorial duties, I'm headed to Paris with your former companions
>They will need someone to clean up after them
>It's a difficult job, but one for which I seek no recompense
>There's a possibility I'll see Steeli Yastuffi in Paris
>She's an Algerian after all, and a sharp-eyed woman in a tacky hat once told me Algerians were drawn to the city like flies to... well, something that doesn't bear repeating
>Oh! Before I forget
Pom-chan places a white paper bag streaked with gore on Sapphire's tombstone.
>A few offerings
>Each was thoroughly tenderized prior to being plucked
>Until we meet again, friend. As always I will endeavour to do my best!
