The priest placed a hand lightly on her shoulder, "May you be Mitica's guide until his light can lead him out of this darkness." He removed the hand, "Tell me are you doing well?"

"Is there anything you need which I can provide?" The priest atried changing his question, "Do you have something to wear for the service? My granddaughter should be about your size, if you have need of a gown of white."

"I do," Violet said. "I don't have many possessions and I don't know the way things work here," she said.

"Then allow me to explain some things." He nodded, "Here, when one gets married they wear red, like wise when one dies, the attending do not wear black as the humans do, but the purity of white. At the funeral no one is allowed to cry, if one cries the spirit of the dead will linger as a ghost, and never go on to paradise. The humans bury their dead, while we burn them, and let their ashes be added back into the world. And of course only family goes to the burning ceremony. Do you understand?"

The priest nodded, "Then you should go to Mitica. I will send my aid to ask my granddaughter to bring you a white gown. Which room will you be in? Mitica will have to go to his room, to get his funeral robes."

Violet told him where her room was. Then she thanked him and then went to Mit.

Mit was waiting as he leaned on the wall cattie corner the door. His eyes showed some life as he looked to her, "What did he want?"
The aid scuffled past them, bowing as he passed.

"He wanted to make sure I was prepared for the funeral," Violet said. "And he looked at the phoenix egg. He thinks it will hatch today."

Mit nodded, "The old man is good at reading magic." He sighed and ran a hand through his hair, "Why don't you go back to Tora... I'm going to go to my rooms and pass out. The Funeral starts at three... It will end with the setting sun."

Mit paused, and looked at her, then the egg. It took him a moment to decide, "Alright... It's not fair for me to leave something my Uncle gave me with you."
There was almost a sensation of a small cheer coming from the egg.

"I don't mind keeping it, but I think it wants to be with you," Violet said.
