The Predecessor

Yulia seems to have mixed feelings about the voices decisions, but for the most part seems relieved. Unfortunately taking the Queen's spear, proves fruitless, much like the other weapons seen so far on this floor it seems to be bound to it's wielder and the Queen demonstrates her ability to make it vanish and reappear in her hands at will. Yulia does follow through with stripping her completely naked, quite surprised as the binding bandages are removed and the Queen's breasts seem to be larger even than Yulia's own impressive chest. She wonders if there might be something special about the bandages to be able to so effectively hide such a sizeable bust and surreptitiously shoves the bandages in her pack for future testing. After that she strips off the rest of the Queen's armor while Lri takes the Goddess' gloves and bangles from her. Goma healing her injury as this is done.

Once both are fully naked, the Queen also wearing a simple black bikini bottom to cover her crotch which was also removed, Yulia looks between the two of them. The Goddess looks relatively unbothered, not being much more naked than she was before, but the Queen looks both pissed and embarrassed. Her eye patch had been momentarily removed until it was revealed the eye underneath was actually quite damaged and the eyepatch was hastily returned.

"before I turn you over to your opponents there is something I wanted to ask you, what can you tell me about my predecessor, the Chosen who caused the truce before?" Yulia asks and the Goddess answers.

"Her? Her name was Elena, at least that's how she introduced herself to us. I already told you most of what I know, but I guess I can give a bit more detail. She wielded a staff and support magic and was a truly powerful foe despite her soft spoken demeanor and positive vibe. In battle she was practically untouchable, she was seemingly immune to offensive magic and shrugged off physical attacks. I was quite surprised to learn someone managed to kill her actually when news of her legend reached me," she explains.

"It was poison... That's what I heard. She fell in battle with someone who was once a friend. The two fought a number of times on the final floor, but her unwillingness to strike the killing blow on her friend meant that eventually said friend got the upper hand and hit her with a poisoned arrow. Apparently she had no way to heal herself and slowly died from the poison," The Queen added, "unfortunately I also don't know much more than that and even that is slightly suspect... I do know her killer is still around though. It's a rumour, not officially part of her legend, but there are people who say that after she died, her killer remained on the top floor. They wait for more Chosen, I wonder... Yulia... What will you do if you run into them?" The Queen finishes and glares at Yulia.

"I'll kill them... I have no attachment to this person and if the only thing that got Elena killed was her inability to finish this person off... then I'll have no issue," Yulia responds simply and then uses the scepter to knock the two back, sending the Goddess into the mass of Sirens and The Queen to the remaining mermaids.

"You can do whatever you want with them, but otherwise... this war is over. All other prisoners are to be set free, the Sahuagin are to be allowed to remain in this city free to do as they please and none of the three of you are to continue hostilities. Understood?" Yulia calls out.

"You think they'll just listen to y-" The goddess calls out, but is cut off as one of the Siren's holding her suddenly covers her mouth and she gasps as another Siren begins to grope her breasts roughly, her tail thrashing as she struggles in the grip of multiple figures.

"Look at this, slut... Calls herself a warrior with sensitive tits like these?" A mermaid teases as she fondles the Queen's exposed breasts and it's clear by the Queen's face that she's not wrong about them being sensitive, she's barely holding back moans as they're played with, "I'll bet she'll provide a lot of crystallized Mana," another mermaid says and Yulia can see Lri shiver slightly.

"Do you think they'll actually stop fighting?" Cherchiel asks and Yulia shrugs.

"I don't know, but I also don't know how to make a binding oath and I don't even know if such a thing would work since they are all currently leaderless, who would we even make swear such an oath? We can just hope that they'll be pacified... If Lri is right, none of them really want to continue fighting and there's also just the fact with three power vacuums it will probably take a while for any of them to really establish any new leadership who could start the fighting back up again," Yulia responds. The Queen and Goddess are dragged out by their respective new jailers.

"We should take a rest and then head to Leviathan... I'd like out of this place," Yulia says.

The rest agree and they return to the island with the swimsuits to have a long rest.

Lemiel seemingly quite happy to be out of the water again. Surprisingly sleeping along with the others as they rest.
