Alessia looked between Amphion and Nia, it was hard for her to speak, she feared that if she did he'd recognize her voice... which was completely unrealistic. So Alessia took one deep breath and nodded, "Yes, of course, my sister and I would be happy to have an escort from someone as powerful as yourself."
Alessia smiled but made sure not to look Amphion in his eyes, she kept her head low. It was interesting, Alessia was going to take the role of the silent one and Nia was acting as the ditzy girl in the group. Their roles from their time in the Saints seemed to be reversed.
Amphion smiled and stepped aside, "Lead the way." He spoke as Alessia sat up, got her surroundings and started to press on.
She made one quick gesture to Nia and whispered, "We can use this to our advantage for now."

Nia nodded excitedly and whispered back to Alessia, "Ooooh, yes!"
She turned then to face Amphion as they walked, all big smiles as she continued her giggling act on him.
"I-I don't think we got the name of our hero, yet! I'm Nia," she bubbled, playing with her hair and doing know what she knew she did best...act cute.

Amphion could help but laugh at Nia's question, not because it was a funny thing to ask but because the way she asked it, it was cute... yet a little awkward, like she acting a little, "My name is Amphion," he nodded with a small smile, "I must have struck gold to happen to save two very beautiful ladies who know exactly how to get to the ports. What great luck!"
Alessia was doing her best to stay silent but after he said that she suddenly shouted out, "I ALREADY HAVE SOMEONE." That abrupt shout made them pause in their footsteps. Alessia's face went bright pink as she pulled her hood over her face further.
Amphion laughed in attempt to break the awkward silence, "That's great, someone waiting for you in Ignis I presume?"
"Ah, um, yes." She nodded.
"Good! I too had someone special," Amphion nodded, "So I know well the desire to meet them again, you'd move heaven and earth wouldn't you?"
"Yes I would," Alessia said as she began thinking back to what was in her way: Duo Angelo, he was the only person standing in her way back home. If she ever located him she would do her best to kill the tyrant, "I'd remove all objects in my way if I could."
"Well than, let us get to the port so you may be back with this man soon, hm?"
She looked down in attempt to hide the tears that were beginning to trickle down her face, with every step I take I pull further from him. Those haunting thoughts echoed within Alessia as they pressed further to the port.

"Beautiful? Heeee, you are charming aren't you?" Nia kept up the giggling, big grin until Alessia's outburst.
Really she wasn't upset by it, she understood what her friend meant and valued her feelings even if they were pretending she were someone else. Nia in a way almost felt guilty but also reminded herself she was acting only to help Alessia. Though she sometimes wondered if Aya even missed her or cared she was gone.
Her thoughts were stolen away by Alessia and Amphion's conversation about finding her loved one supposedly in Ignis. She couldn't see Alessia's tears but talking about the man she longed for made Nia grab Alessia's hand and she gave her a comforting smile as she said confidently, "He will be happy you are home. I'll make sure you get there...I promise."

Alessia squeezed Nia's hand and looked over at her, "I know, Nia. I'll be home... someday."
Amphion watched the two silently, he knew there was more to their story. He had nothing better to do, so he made it his current goal to figure out who exactly these women were. He didn't like not knowing things.
As they walked along they could feel the dark force's of Duo drifting away. They would be left alone for now, but the dark forces would continue to watch their movements.

"Almost there, almost there~" Nia tried to sing happily, tried to give the feeling that everything was fine as they marched along. However as they moved she remembered the creatures that respawned so easily and attacked them and how even Alessia and herself couldn't handle them alone.
Nia had learned so much with her magic powers in the last year with all of her training, but was it enough? It didn't seem like it. Even if Alessia didn't want to stay with her at the temple, she felt it important she need to speak with her master in Ignis anyway before continuing on on this journey.
