With Evelyn's registration now complete. she and lisandre said goodbye to Dara and exited the records hall to go to where Evelyn would be staying from this day onward.
Once they had exited the large tree that doubled as a building, lisandre turned towards Evelyn, and said, "Normally for a new recruit like you, your new dwelling would be located on the outskirts of the Roost and only have the bare minimum number of necessities. But as you are my disciple, I will instead be giving you a room in my estate, which I believe you will find quite comfortable. Oh, and make sure that you keep the cuff I gave you on for now. I will need to register your identification cuff before you can move around without the one I gave you."
After lisandre told Evelyn this, she began flying off again heading back towards the tops of the towering trees.
However, as they kept ascending Evelyn wondered where exactly they were going. They had already passed the tops of all of the trees around them except for the largest sixteen and titanic one that sat in the middle of the Roost.
Yet it soon beca apparent where their destination was, as lisandre straightened out and began flying directly for the top of one of the sixteen largest trees.
There Evelyn could see what looked like a tree mansion built on top of this massive tree that was seamlessly interwoven into the tree.
Gulping, Evelyn could now only imagine that lisandre was more important than she had originally thought. For if she was living atop one of theses sixteen largest trees, there was no doubt she held one of the highest positions in the Roost.
Quickly they arrived at the front entrance of the mansion, that while at first Evelyn thought was made out of wood was actually a type of stone that blended in with the tree around them.
Another surprise soon shocked her as the grand doors that were over fifty feet tall and went all the way up to the top of the mansion's first floor opened on their own and revealed a huge foyer.
It looked like pictures of massive mansions owned by the wealthiest of society Evelyn had seen before on Earth.
'What the hell, it is too huge!'
Inside everything was far larger than what one would expect in a human dwelling with doors all being at least twenty-five-feet tall, and hallways being incredibly wide. Enough that multiple trucks could drive side by side in them.
Though while Evelyn was staring around stunned by the mansion she had just entered, her attention was soon focused on sothing else.
Two large owls that were around twenty-feet tall began flying towards them, and imdiately Evelyn was taken aback.
A sense of fear welled up in her as she could feel that these owls were much stronger than she was, being at the peak of the awakened beast rank.
Yet when they landed in front of lisandre, they bowed their heads, and said, "Welco back Lady lisandre. We have done as you requested and prepared a room for your new disciple."
"Thank you for doing that on such short notice Anneli and Karina." lisandre said with a smile.
She then motioned towards Evelyn, and said, "This is my new disciple, Evelyn. While she may be just a mid-tier fiend beast right now, I can tell you that her potential is enormous and that she is deserving of being considered my disciple."
After saying this she beckoned Evelyn forward as she had stood frozen in the entryway.
Naturally she was being bombarded with all manner of new and unfamiliar things, and she was being cautious and feeling things out before letting her guard down even a little bit.
Still, she realized that she needed to stifle her fears and hopped forward where she bowed her head towards lisandre's attendants and greeted them.
"Oh, she seems quite intelligent for just a fiend beast." The owl whose na was Anneli said.
She had bright blue and red plumage and exuded and open and bubbly personality.
On the other hand, Karina who was an owl with dark yellow and red feathers just remined silent and was inspected Evelyn carefully with her eyes.
"Now she does not know how to speak, or communicate via magical energy yet, but if either of you make the connection, she is more than able to communicate competently." lisandre said.
However, as lisandre was speaking to her two attendants a fluttering piece of paper like the one Dara had used earlier passed through the building and floated up to her.
She held out a hand to receive it and quickly read the letter.
As she did, she frowned and said, "It appears that I have been summoned."
Sighing, she looked towards Anneli and Karina, and said, "I was going to show Evelyn around personally, but I suppose that will not be possible. Anneli, I ask that you show her around in my stead. But do not take her out of the mansion, I will show her the hall myself afterwards."
Once lisandre had delegated the task of showing Evelyn around, she left her mansion again, grumbling along the way.
"I am going to get you back for this Silas. You could have just kept you nose out of my business."
When lisandre was gone, Karina took off to attend to so other duties while Anneli approached Evelyn.
Evelyn had to crane her neck upwards to look her in the eyes, and it now beca clear to her why everything was built so much larger.
'If twenty-foot-tall owls are the norm than, I guess they have no choice but to make everything huge.' She thought while looking at Anneli.
A mont later Evelyn saw a thin strand of magical energy co down from Anneli and stop a few inches from her.
Nodding her head Evelyn gave her consent for the connection, and Anneli extended the thin strand of magical energy.
"Now then Evelyn. I shall show you around. Please follow , we are first going to look at your new room."
