Eraqus stared out at the city beneath him. The clock tower commanded an excellent view of things he had noted, but he had not come for the view. He was waiting on someone to meet him up here for a rather serious talk that was best done in privacy and this place he had decided was the safest and best bet when it came to being able to discuss things without running into the possibility that the conversation would be overheard by an outside party. If they did gain company, at least they would see or hear any one who might wander into earshot.
When he had asked the woman who had claimed friendship with Aqua about how she had been doing here, he had truly not expected the answers he had received. Perhaps a few of the things he had heard were understandable, but others... well, he had decided to have a few words with Aqua about them. She might be a woman grown now and no longer his student, but that didn't mean he would simply cease teaching her if he saw there was a lesson that needed to be taught and learned still.

"Master?"

Yeah no, there were no excuses.
"I'm sorry, Master. I didn't want to keep you waiting longer than I had."

To be honest, he didn't truly understand how it was possible for someone to die and yet return to the living as if the death had not occurred, but for now he was simply relieved that it hadn't been permanent.

She'd worked hard the past few years to keep this city and her friends safe. Sometimes things like that happened. And hadn't she heard enough from Christine and Conan and Janice when it had happened.
"I've only ever done what I thought best for the sake of the city residents."

I am not telling you that you should not seek to protect these people when the need arises. I am saying that you should not work yourself so hard that it ends up hurting you as a result. Not only do they lose you as a protector when that happens but they then have to worry over your health as well as the task of defending themselves."
