Athena's gratitude lifted his spirits slightly. It was nice to be thanked-- even if he had to more-or-less request it.

"Miss Athena is obviously not dead," Tycon groaned. "I don't understand why you're so upset."

"Sir Tycon?" Athena shyly approached the stairs, "Can... can we keep fighting? I still have a lot of mana and it feels... uncomfortable."
