Teleporting to your wife's side after a moment's thought, leaving the giant beast on whatever world that was behind. Finding yourselves outside the ship, a second later you notice a crystal inlay near the ship only because the crystals begin to grow. Rising from the ground and shaping into an arch, the portal between your world and Chilli's own forming and allowing you all to step through. Which you do, leaving New Salda and arriving in the Crimson Demon village. Where the entire village has come out. The party's about to start, people running around and finishing setting the long table running through the middle of the village, your son and his family all waiting there as you all step through.
“GRANDPA! GRANDMA!” Meloka Wolbach shouts excitedly, flying directly to you. Holding your arms out to your sides you plant your feet, bracing yourself as she flies directly into your chest full-force. Causing you to grunt and slide back a few inches across the smooth crystal before finding purchase. “You made it!”
“Wouldn't miss this for the world.” you tell your granddaughter, hugging her to you. Then as you let her go, she notices the giant dragon's tooth in your hand.
“Is that for me?” she asks, sounding confused. To which you laugh, telepathically telling Chilli before tossing it to him. “That's just something I got for saving your auntie. No, these are for you.”
And you redirect her attention to your left hand, where she sees the staff first. You see her eyes go wide, looking from it to you as her jaw drops.
“You got me a magic staff? Really?!” she asks excitedly, you seeing your daughter-in-law looking startled at this.
“Of course. But it's not just a magic staff.” you tell her, handing the white branch to her. “It also has a secret.”
“A secret?!” she asks, eyes sparkling as she looks from it to you, unsure which to look at. “What secret?”
Well? How do you answer her?
>Talk her through what to do, but don't outright tell her what it does>Instead of telling her show her, have her let you hold the staff and activate it. You want to see the look on her face as you use it, which you can't see if she does it herself>Tell her that it's a secret, one she has to figure out herself. But you know she's a smart girl and will figure it out in no time>Let her know you'll show her after the party, once the celebration's over and then give her her other present>Other(write in)
