The hug was definitely welcome; Rydia leaned into it and hugged back warmly. Her expression softened upon seeing Rosa in a brighter mood. After the heartache of seeing her in such low spirits earlier, that meant a great deal. "I'm glad to have done my part, Rosa. This is my home for a while, and how could I claim that if I didn't defend it? Thankfully, we didn't have to do it alone. I really want to find Lord Vayne and the others with him, to offer my thanks."

She paused, looking over the white mage. "Now that the crisis is over, I hope you'll let me poke you into getting some real rest. You have to need it, after all that."
