Welcome back(Hime/Elyss)

Hime had indeed recalled meeting Elyss on earth. She was, as the princess of grace remembered, traveling towards the continent of Vastime. Hime was more than familiar with Vastime, having done her due diligence to learn of Abalia's ties to other organizations.

Before her ascent to captain commander, she had a history with Vastime, to say nothing of her marriage to Hayden. The spar had been a fun distraction from the trip but one thing that stood out among their clash was the lack of a zanpakuto.

Hime had noted that before she had crossed paths with Elyss, she defeated a hollow with her bare hands. Even as they fought and Hime pushed Elyss to the edge, she still didn't utilize her weapon. In hindsight, Hime felt foolish for believing that Elyss had something that had clearly been taken away.

"I see. Well, here we are again. I only wished to know of what led to you leaving so abruptly after we met and spent time together in the past. I will not inquire any further. Your explanation has provided me with more than enough and I feel asking any other questions about this subject would only create an awkward atmosphere for the two of us."

Hime softly picked up a spoon and waved it around playfully, displaying a soft smile befitting her graceful countenance. She only wished to ease Elyss's troubled mine. She had no permission to interfere with the decisions concerning her Zanpakuto. She believed that those things would right themselves in the end.

"All that matters now is what you wish to do moving forward. As much as I've tried to convince myself otherwise, the past is not indicative of what the future can bring. "
