“As for me, I was able to conquer the Beast at last, after sealing myself in the Void for a month, battling with it's essence. Only once I was in control did my seal break, and permit me back to Terra."<br/><br/>'Pity...' She responded, 'I had fun with the Beast.'  She didn't know how Zanfell would react to that last comment seeing as she hadn't been the person he had always known when she was interacting with the Beast.  Though what they shared the Beast did admit that Zanfell wasn't protesting to.  It had always left her wondering if Zanfell had wished it was his state of mind that was there instead of the Beast's.<br/><br/>She shook her head to herself and murmured, 'A conversation for another time I suppose.'<br/><br/>Stepping out from the gateway she heard a familiar voice behind her,  slowly turning she laid her eyes upon someone she wasn't quite sure she was yet ready to see.  She took a slight defensive stance not knowing how things would play out.<br/><br/>Somehow she could tell that something had changed in the woman standing before her, she knew it wasn't the Phoenix she had last met.<br/><br/>'Many things change with time...You should know that.'  Her response toward the woman was much colder than anything she had yet said to Zanfell, though seeing as the last time they had met things didn't play out nicely.
