Zinnia could not help but smile behind her hands at Yue's attitude towards Alty, the old witch didn't seem to mind, in fact she was almost amused by Yue's behavior. "I believe you, I suppose I'll warn the Guardians to be on close watch," Aly straightened, if Yue was going into business mode then so would she. Zinnia watched, thoroughly delighted as Yue delved into the details. Was it pride that welled up inside of her? Of course no doubt Zinnia had nothing to do with this, Yue had always had a bit of an attitude once she had come into magic and it was her responsibility to divine the possible outcomes of Constantina. "I'll agree to that," Alty nodded. "It is Hallow's Eve, I do not doubt that dark forces will try to collect mana as well." It was akin to a mana feast for the mages tonight, once the full moon was at its pique.
"That is fine with me," Zinnia smiled, Alty rolled her eyes, but nodded. "Alright, if that is the arrangement then I will agree to your terms," she smiled and walked away, pleased with herself for some untold reason. "Yue, you do not need to protect me," Zinnia spoke softly, seriously. She was one of the most powerful witches in Constantina, "The last thing I would ever want is for you to get dragged into whatever mess I will be pulled into." Yue had to stay safe, Zinnia would make certain of it. She did not want her... girlfriend to be doomed to a similar fate. Even now, her feather's itched, her wings threatening to grow.
Should Zinnia become an angel, she would lose her witch hood. Of course, the witch had never heard of someone simply becoming an angel. Perhaps she would simply cease to exist, becoming part of some sort of strange purgatory. Or maybe her soul would be dammed, as everyone knew that witches did not go to Heaven. "I don't want to see you hurt because of me," Zinnia's expression was serious. She knew that Yue would protest and go against her wishes, but Zinnia would do everything she could to make certain that Yue was kept safe. For now, there was no use in discussing these things. Zinnia had finished her tea and pancakes and was ready to get some shopping done. "Come, let us go to Market, I have a bit of extra money and could use a new robe."
Zinnia rose, heading out of Little Cup considering they were both finished with their breakfasts. Outside, the Market square was bustling with costumed patrons and children. They were already setting up for the festival, shouting wares and selling all sorts of enchanted foods to play tricks and hand out treats. "Hallow's Eve is always the busiest time of year," Zinnia explained, "since being underneath the moon helps replenish your mana, the festivities go on until late in the evening." Sometimes almost until sunrise.
