(Your POV)
My eyes fluttered awake to see a gray haired woman with glasses looking over me. Her eyes seemed so tired like they haven't slept in years, yet she seemed very attentive and observant. I looked around for Amaterasu, only to not feel it in my pockets and I started panicking. Forcing me to lay up from what appeared to be a hospital bed, I also looked around for my paintbrush, revealing I was in a hospital room of some kind.

"Oh good, you're awake." The woman states, noticing that I woke up from my little nap. "You've been knocked out for quite a while now."

"Where am I?" I asked while trying to straighten my clothes a bit more, then I realized that I didn't have my jacket on

"Where am I?" I asked while trying to straighten my clothes a bit more, then I realized that I didn't have my jacket on. "Where is my jacket? Who are you? How many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop?"

"You're in the Fraxinus, your jacket's in the wash, I'm Reine Murasame, and 364 licks." The newly dubbed Reine answered all of my questions in a calm tone, impressing me especially with the last answer.

"You're good, I'll give you that." I tried getting out of my bed, but I was met with a yellow blue suddenly hitting me and forcing me back on the bed, full force. "What the hell?"

"(Y/N)!" Angie shouted excitedly as she snuggled into my chest, confusing me for multiple reasons, but the main one was...what was she doing here?! "You're awake! I thought you died! Thank Atua you're okay!"

"It was just a rock!" I reassured the girl as a familiar maid suddenly appeared behind me, causing me to turn my eyes to see Kirumi. "Hey Kirumi, what are you two doing here?"

"Well you see, due to our experience in extreme stress and experience with two different demigods, <Ratatoskr> hired us so we could help with the spirit problem." Kirumi explained before prying Angie off of me and then handed me my jacket. "Come on now, the commander is waiting for you."

"I'm sorry, commander?" I got up from the bed and put my jacket on, noticing that all the paint stains were now gone, my pride and joys. "Okay, better question; who carried me here?"

"Gonta did, obviously." Kirumi straightened out my jacket to help me out. "He's the only person who's capable of carrying people, but he has informed us that you're a bit on the light side."

"Looks like I'll have to thank him later." I made a mental note as all four of us began walking down the halls of this Fraxinus building, oh wait, it's not a building...it's an airship. "How on Earth is this airship staying in the air?"

"It's one of the world's greatest mysteries~" Angie playfully chuckled as she walked towards the door with the rest of us in tow. "In all seriousness, how do we fly, Reine?"

"We have a generator that's powered by gravity dust that's sent over to us by a place called Atlas on the planet Remnant." Reine explained before yawning, allowing me to finally take notice at how tired she looked. "(Y/N), I understand you're a healthy teenage boy, but please don't stare at people."
