Elizabeth walks away from Venus' sumptuous palace, side-by-side with Xanthea, a slightly warm brown egg cradled in her arms. She takes a deep breath and lets it come out in a puff. "Well," she begins, glancing over at her friend. "That was...exciting. I'm, er, I'm sorry it didn't precisely go as planned," she says with an apologetic shrug.
She falls silent for a few steps, then bites her lip before speaking up again. "D'you....maybe want to come back to my house and have a cup of tea? We can calm our nerves a bit," she offers. They'd been through quite a lot, even though she'd heard that others had been through more. Crazed deities, Pae compelled to make love right then and there, she'd even heard that Millie and Kalandandra had been locked up in a shed!
Elizabeth looks over to Xanthea. "How about it?" She offers a little smile. Even after everything that had happened, she's....glad that she'd gone. She'd been a recluse for far too long, she realizes, and it had felt good to get out of the house and spend some time with a friend. Even if they'd spent their time together in a crazy labyrinth.

The maze was frightening. Normally up for an adventure, that level of fear was not something Xanthea would ever want to experience again. She too, like Elizabeth, ended up leaving the temple with an egg in her arms. A consolation prize, apparently.
"Was that really how that other party was, where you turned into a wolf?" She asked, a sudden wave a pity and fear washing over her. All parties on this island can't be like that. "And no need to be sorry. I wanted to go to that party in the first place. It sounded like a lot of fun. I'm sorry I dragged you there, too." she hefted a sigh and tapped lightly on the egg, curious what may be inside.
"Yeah, I'd like that. I think tea would be nice. Give us a chance to unwind and maybe make sense of what happened." She chuckled weakly, and looked at the gold key that had saved her and Elizabeth from the maze. She was fully aware that they got out easy compared to a lot of the other party guests.

Elizabeth shrugs a bit, a little uncomfortably. "The details on that particular party are really fuzzy. I wasn't in control of myself at all." And it had been a long time ago and she had actually tried to forget it had happened. "But yeah, I'm glad that we escaped early, even with all the craziness that still happened afterward."
She shakes her head and pushes a smile onto her face, glancing over at Xanthea. "Tea it is," she says, shifting the egg in her arms to carry it more securely and comfortably. "What d'you suppose are in these things, anyway?" she asks.
