Ashelia approached the pyramid cautiously and not without some reverence. One only had to look at the structure to know it was a place of great importance - spiritually, for certain, and if she had listened correctly, politically. It was apparently also where summoners trained, a pursuit Ashelia had some personal stock in.
The young Queen was walking on solid ground and, strangely enough, much taller than usual. Upon further inspection, one would realize that Ashelia had more or less taken on the form of an elezen, though she did still look remarkably like herself. Better to fit in at first, she thought, get the lay of the land. The coming of the Heroes seemed to be expected - a fact that didn't sit well with her at all. There was a chance that some here in Mysidia were privy to the same information Kalki and Palitutu were and would recognize Ashelia anyway, despite her disguise, but it was better than nothing.
Ashelia's breath caught in her throat when she entered the pyramid. She had been in many ancient places, seen much architecture and geography that ought not make any sense even to the trained eye, but never had she been in such a place. Anxious as she was to go and meet this Sage herself, she took the time to get her bearings and found herself distracted watching some summoners practice their abilities. She longed to join in, to show them her impressive abilities as a psychic, but resisted - such open displays of power were, in the end meaningless, and contrary to her aim.
And if Dr. Cid saw... The fact she even had to think of the doctor again after everything turned her stomach. "I killed him once," she murmured to herself, shaking her head. "I'll do it again..."
