Welcome to Gaia! ::

So how did one...secretly contact a princess they'd never met? No word of mouth, friend of a friend, or forum messaging? Hestia considered it as she ran across the rooftops, looking for either a fight she shouldn't have or someone with big wings. Like...big. Was there a bat signal for princesses that she was just out of the loop on? Or maybe she could just pray very hard for a purification, and one would appear? Like the way Don Diablos would appear whenever she prayed for life advice!

Everything was ready, at least. Money tucked away, will altered, a body with a dental match and a method to destroy most of it. Just this one last cog was needed to set the whole thing in motion and Celestina would be free to be, well...free.

"Here princess, princess..." the maid senshi called out softly as she ran, trying to put out an aura of I'm here to find you! Because obviously, if they weren't batman, or wrestling deities, maybe they could be sought out like errant cats. With wings.

Well, she found somebody using this method, so maybe it was actually a really good way to find someone? Gazing at the gauzy white and violet figure, hearing here sphere, Hestia became a little more certain. After all, if anybody could find a princess, it was a unicorn, right?

Trying not to freeze in awe of her own genius (or maybe just luck, very stupid luck) the maid senshi gave a small curtsy and introduced herself, "I'm Hestia, Senshi of Housekeeping. And I'm not looking for dog, but a..." she leaned closer, "...Princess, for something secret. And Important." Straightening, Hestia straightened up again. "Do you know any?"

Hestia's hand flew up to her chest, startled at the accurate guess. Well, the first was accurate at least. "Miss Lysithia, it is for a purification. A princess would really have to..." well, offend Algol, to be honest, but, "...well, I really have never considered selling one. We're just worried about my friend getting caught before they can get out."

Pausing, Hestia looked the other senshi up and down, seeing if whatever kind of time she'd spent being corrupted showed in some way. "I'd greatly appreciate it if you could help us, Miss. Um," she hesitated for a second before asking, "could you tell me what it was like? Purification?"

It sounded like it'd be nice, especially to the Senshi of Housekeeping.

Eyes brightening over the fact that Purification would be better than Corruption, Hestia began to feel really hopeful for Celestina. "It's her choice! It is most definitely her choice, and I didn't have to try convince her to make it. I don't think she felt...compelled enough to stay when a good reason to leave suddenly stood in front of her. She's a very bright, and often kind person."

Well. Once someone managed to move Celestina's heart toward real warmth, that warmth could easily became a bonfire. It was one of the things she liked best about her friend. When she cares about something, she'll care about it to the ends of the world.

"The sooner the better," Hestia nodded, pulling out her phone and making sure she found Lysithea's database entry. Hearing that it'd hurt was, in some ways unfortunate, but mostly it made her feel more confident in the process. For something important, there should be a cost. It shouldn't be too easy. But Celestina losing a part of herself, that...well she would be there. If there were pieces to pick up off the floor, Hestia is the Senshi of Housecleaning after all!

"I'll contact you as soon as we kill her." She continued scrolling the database for a moment before realizing how that sounded. "Not kill kill her," she corrected hurriedly, "That is...we'd just like to make sure things stays tidy."

Clasping the eternal's hand in both her own, Hestia dipped her head, "Thank you, Miss Lysithea." Her voice held an intense sincerity, and she raised her eyes to meet the other senshi's. "It will only be death in the sense of leaving one life for another. Thank you for giving her, us, this chance."
