[Kirumi is here! And she can't help but think of things Fray had said to her in her palace...

...so this might be what he meant. Hm...]

It's a pleasure to meet you. You're among friends here.

[Perhaps it's a little cold of her, but she's unfazed by all the hurt people here. They're made up by Fray's palace, after all. She sees no reason to worry about those, when one has to reach Fray one way or another. This here might be a piece of his psyche, so she intends to at least be diplomatic with him]

[bloodweapon]

[V'rhas nods at that, expression going thoughtful.]

Yes, he's quite fond of all of you, isn't he? I didn't think he could be, honestly...

[kandata]

Why wouldn't he be? Are we perhaps different to the kind of people he gets along with?

[Or he isn't a sociable person, maybe?]

[bloodweapon]

Not quite. "Fray" hasn't made friends, outside of me, I suppose. Though that's a bit different.

[Different how he doesn't elaborate.]

[kandata]

...I'm glad we can be his friends. Fray is someone we value quite a bit. We're here because we want to support him, after all.

[With the discussion of what Fray is, Kirumi can imagine how it's a bit different. This is a complicated situation, seems to her, golly]

[bloodweapon]

And I take it nothing I say will change your mind? It truly would be better for you all to leave him behind and press onward.

[kandata]

After all Fray has done for me, I would have to be very ungrateful not to do all I can to help him back. Just like he has helped me during hard times, I want to help him.

[No matter who or what she faces]

[bloodweapon]

[V'rhas sighs, but he doesn't seem surprised by that answer.]

Very well. Then we'll fight. Don't hold back - I expect the very best of you all.

[kandata]

I won't hold back. Be ready.

[Oh, she'll go all-in!]

[strawsandals]

He's made plenty. We're here for him now, aren't we?

[ Sorry for cutting in! He is so tired. Sir, he just wants his cat friend back, you can both exist!! ]

Please. If we have to do this the hard way, you can trust that we're up for the challenge.

[bloodweapon]

That much certainly is true. You could have turned back at any point.

[He sighs at that, shaking his head with a rueful smile.]

Very well. Then we'll fight. Give me everything you've got!
