## Summary

Flint arrives at the Delangue College science lab. A tiefling girl named Maggie reveals herself and Flint squeals with joy. He mentions that it's been a long time since she was taken away by her mother and asks where she's been. Maggie reveals that she is still blindsighted after the accident both she and Flint had as children. However she got accepted into the Delangue college due to thier disability program. Flint is relieved as is Maggie who reveals that she's studying to be a mental therapist. She also reveals to still be into the Metalmouth comics (with a bit of Ronan in her). Maggie nearly forgets about the prescription she was supposed to pick up for a paitent as Flint reveals he's been adventuring with a party. He also introduces Zu to her as Maggie suggests that his party members can come to her for mental healing if need be for she needs the college credits. Flint agrees and skips off in delight.

Flint goes over to the drow studen't room to find Princess Abigail and Seven talking with the student. The student notes that the princess is okay to hang out with weirdos. Seven is nearly offended but Flint takes it in stride. They decide that the best place to lure it out is the library. After a joke involving teaching Seven math, they decide to lure the creature to the library after rendevouing with everyone.

Everyone arrives back at the Malum Castle, Hoshimi begins with her teasing of Caius and then brings up Xaillen's letter. Before Adrian Tanlaial can bring up his talk with Fierna, they head to the conference room. Adrian also brings up his heart-to-heart with Merylwind, and is swiftly kicked by Hoshimi when he mentions he didn't stay in contact with his family. Olwen Edgeworth also mentioned that she talked with Yuuto and he is currently watching over Merylwind. Adrian talks about what he learned about the chalice, the key Julia found, the primordial runes, and the archangels. As Abigail leaves to get some more info on the archangels, Ray plays with Seven until they're both tired.

Princess Abigail smiles at the playful scene as she returns with what she knows about Mount Celestia. She mentions that deities and archangels function much like a senator and house of congress while also having a similar structure to Baator. She mentions that Lunia is run by the archangel Barachiel and the Kokorian deity, Tsukiyo. Hoshimi is surprised as Tsukiyo is the deity of the moon, jade and spirits. Adrian notes that the color Jade appears in the primordial runes but isn't capitalized. Abigail continues with the layer of Mercuria run by Domiel with the ox and gold being primary associated with him and the diety involved with that layer is Tamara. Abigail continues with the Venya layer led by Erathaol, the patron of prophets, and the deity Yondala, the deity of halflings. Next up was the layer of Solania led by Pistis Sophia and the deity Torag, for the dwarves. The fourth layer of Celestia was Mertion ruled by Raziel the crusader and the deity Ragathiel (who replaced Heironious). The fifth layer was Jovar led by Sealtiel and the light deity Foltis. Finally there was Chronias led by Zaphkiel and the community and peace diety Jezirian.

Adrian notes that only Barachiel, Pistis Sophia and Ragathiel are the only ones that pop up on the primordial runes. Olwen knows that Ragathiel is the deity of vengance (such as vengance is mine) and his followers mostly consist of those who have been wronged. His spirit animal is that of a mastiff which is interesting to Abigail. They guess that Mount Celestia is in the primordial runes with the hound refering to Ragathiel.
