He spoke to Emiliana through the Shard, and thankfully, her circumstances seemed to be fine, still. With the war going on, he feared that she would somehow get thrown into it, but from the sound of things, nothing had changed for her at all.
It made him wonder if she wasn't even on the Eloan continent, right now. It was pointless to speculate, since he knew that she wouldn't tell him her location. And even if he did figure it out, what in the world would he do with that information? Telling it to Zeff would be tantamount to sending the man to his death.
Or at least, that was what Emiliana was obviously worried about. As time went on, Hector wasn't sure that Zeff would do anything that reckless. The man would have to know that a direct assault on the Monster of the East would be suicide, so he would probably take a different approach, right? Zeff was always lecturing him about making use of appropriate tactics in battle, after all.
Perhaps he'd been thinking too little of his teacher this whole time.
Well, it didn't matter now. There was nothing to be done.
During the downtime, Hanton "arrived" at Riverton Hall in his illusory human form, and Hector saw him making the rounds, probably trying to learn more about the current political environment here. He and Hector spoke a few more times.
Hector didn't feel like he'd achieved emergence in the battle with Chort, but... he did feel like something was different. It had to be this aura stuff that Pauline and now Hanton were talking about.
And after discussing it more with Garovel, the two of them came to the conclusion that Hector's own aura must have been the result of the blessing that Malast gave him, Domain.
