“Uhm… I-If it counts for anything, she helped us close the gate and help him.” You point at Jonathan. You let them know so they are not harsh with Ophelia.
“What… gate?” Chestnut girl looks confused and with good reason. None of what happened makes any sense.
“Yeah, let her go, she’s a total goofball.” The girl with the slick black suit takes your words a little too far.
“You sound like my lawyer!” The elegant suspicious-looking woman sounds like she’s joking, but she’s not. You think the coat she’s wearing belongs to Jonathan.
“I can attest to Ema’s words.” Look at Ihor! He did it again! The hat thing! Why is nobody noticing?
“I don’t understand this situation in the slightest! I need an explanation! Besides, this sneaky lady trespassed! Answering a couple of questions is the least she can do for me.” The little lightbulb-head girl wants answers. “Guards, after her!”
“Yes!” The girl with the stupendous hat goes in pursuit of Ophelia, who’s hurrying up.
“Ya know, I think Ema is more lost than any of us. Must be, like, super confusing. Everyone knows her name, but she doesn’t know ours. I’m Marcela, and these are…” Marcela is kind enough to notice the awkward situation you are in.
Now you know everyone’s names: Marcela is the girl in a slick black suit. The suspicious classy lady is Ms. van Zullekom. The Lightbulb head girl is Ms. Qiao Ning and also the Leader of the Clan of Courage and one of the Elder Priestesses. The Chestnut hair girl is Ms. Fiora. Now everything is less confusing! They brief you about the case both Ihor and Jonathan were investigating too.
In turn, Mr. Ihor tries to explain what happened on your end! Private Detectives are amazing! He knows way more than you thought! You did have to chime in to fill some gaps though.
“That explains the giant skull over there.” Ms. van Zullekom points out. Where are the rest of the bodies? And other things aside from the skull…?
“What do you mean she has control over the Emerald Ignis Fatuus?! That’s exactly the one thing that wasn't supposed to happen!” Ms. Qiao Ning is dismayed by this revelation, ignoring what Ms. Zullekom said. “It is MY duty to perform it!”
“I-I’m sorry…” You apologize profusely. It’s not like you wanted to be taken over!
“Give it back!” Qiao Ning grabs you by the collar and starts shaking you violently! “Spit it out! Now! NOW!”
“L-Leader?!” Ms. Fiora doesn’t know what to do with the sudden attack.
