Aloha, Magi!

Lazarus laughed, "Well not by yourself! Just assist the others."

Phillipus nodded. "We'd be a team - a Caster, Berserker, Saber, and Assassin. Besides, he may hold the gods in his body, but I've seen him bleed. Were it not for his tenacity, he could've been beaten."

She put her head in her hands. "Oh boy. Alright, I might be able to help a little. I can't promise a lot."

Artoria nodded. "I would be happy to help. We have to make sure he doesn't hurt the Egyptian people."

Marisbury looked at Lazarus uncertainly. "I don't want to take you away from you children, but you would be a great help."

Lazarus looked to Yui, "Perhaps we could make a vacation out of it? There should be plenty of places in Egypt they could hide safely. And then we can take them on a tour!"

Yui looked uncertain. "Well, Egypt is a big place... Even so, if Ozy lives up to his claims, it would be hard to keep them out of harm's way." She thought about it a bit. "I think it will be fine. So long as we stay well out of harm's way."

"Excellent! Would you like to call your dad and have him meet us there with the kids?"

She looked nervous, but smiled anyway. "Sure. Looks like we're visiting all sorts of exotic places."

"I promise I'll do everything I can to help protect the children. I can make them precious little shield charms!" Phillipus immediately started sketching out schematics and enchantments.

"I'm sure the kids will love it! Thank you. I promise nothing will happen to them." he hugged her and gave her a kiss.

She hugged him tightly back. "I believe you. So, when should we leave? I know this is urgent, but I'm still recovering from the previous jet lag."

"How about late tomorrow night?" He looked at A-san to confirm it was satisfactory.

"Works for me."

"Sure! Looking forward to getting a full night's sleep," she chuckled.

"I'll get some flights booked then!" Lazarus located a computer in the house and got to it.

Carlotta laughed, "My we're such jetsetters now! Would you like me to help Papa Tokiomi watch the children? He would probably like a little assistance reigning them in."

She put her elbows on the table. "Of course! We could use all the help we can get. I'm sure they'd love to hang out with their aunt too."

"Wonderful! To be honest I was a little upset for awhile, but the travel bug has bitten me. Perhaps the realization of my mortality is getting to me." she chuckled, and savored a bit of their delicious dinner.

Yui frowned. "I'm sorry about what happened. I wish I could have been more help. I'm so glad Phillipus and Kirei got to you in time."

"Oh no darling don't worry about it! Everyone acted accordingly! I can't expect everyone to stop fighting to mourn me and get themselves killed in the process! But thank you...I'm so happy you're part of my family." she gave Yui a tight hug.

"Me too," she said happily, hugging her and fighting tears that were threatening to come back. She sniffled and clapped her hands. "We don't have to leave until tomorrow, and we still haven't really gotten to celebrate finishing the War. I think we should have a party tonight!"

"Oh, how about a very low key party? I'm still exhausted!" Carlotta sipped some wine with a sigh.

Aaron returned then, "Heeeey guys. I think I'm gonna need to head home soon.."

"Yeah, I don't think I have the energy for anything too crazy."

Marisbury turned around. "Is everything... alright?"

"Yeah! I just told Julian the war was over basically, so he said I might as well head home."

Phillipus rubbed his chin, picking up on Marisbury's hesitation. "Did he seem upset?"

"No, not at all! He just misses me, I miss him too."

Maris wanted to argue, but decided against it. He had more important things to worry about. He had already said his piece. He turned to Lazarus. "Is it okay if me and Caster study your notes about the Grail for the night?"

Yui snapped her fingers. "We should call Kirei and Atalanta. Any extra help we could get would be invaluable."

"Good idea! I'll do that! And of course you can." Lazarus switched tasks, giving the priest and his companion a call.
