"You're not sleeping like the others?" I ask without thinking.

She shook her head, holding something in her hands that resembled an ancient staff. "No, Daughter. Due to my overflowing mana, I cannot rest. But now, I can control my powers thanks to you. I am now able to leave this wretched place and help you and the King. With my mana under control, I will assist in any way, shape, or form. As a small gift of my gratitude, I bestow upon you an ancient staff made from pure mana. With your other staff, I shall infuse the two together and create a much more powerful one. Your spells will become much stronger and will shake any daemon in your wake. Now, may I see your staff?"

"Of course." I summon my staff and hand the weapon over to the eighth zodiac. With the two staffs in hand, Scorpio chants a spell I don't recognize. A brilliant golden light engulfed the two staffs and soon dissipated. Looking closely, I'm in awe at the sight of the infused staffs.

"It's beautiful. Thank you, Scorpio," I said as she handed the new and improved weapon over to me.

"You are welcome, Daughter. Now, I must head to the Celestial Court. With my ruins now open, I am able to travel. Take my charm as a parting gift for I shall see you soon."

"Once again, thank you."

Scorpio placed her hand in mine before she vanished and gave me her charm.
