This time, the symbiote remained silent even in the young woman's mind, but she could feel it seething with rage towards Travis. Erza ignored it, simply nodding in response, and relief.
"That is... reassuring. Please take care. I will head back to the guild immediately and let at least Mira know of your new appearance, so she isn't too surprised when you return. I will leave it to you and her to inform the others, except for Wendy, Carla and Levy, with whom I will await your return, and who will likely have many questions", she reasoned, before heading back to her own mount, getting on it. 3 in Agility to get on her own horse.

"I might be gone for a spell." She said. "The Queen will no doubt have some... concerns about my new vessal." She said. "Good day." She said before taking off down the mountain.

"So I imagine, yes", the redhead said, nodding. "I will let the guild know that you will be away for a while, then. Goodbye."
As soon as the green-haired woman was a decent range away, the symbiote once more spoke in her mind.
'You don't need that horse. We should eat it. We can fly back to that guild of yours, it will be much faster.'
"W-We are NOT eating the horse!" she let out, disgusted by the thought, even though... she felt disturbingly hungry. "It does not belong to me, and even if it did, I would much rather eat a lot of other things before I even think of eating a horse."
'You wield the power of a god! What does it matter whom it belongs to? The strong takes from the weak. Does a wolf care who owns a sheep when it eats it?'
"I am not a wolf, and I am not eating this horse. And that's final", she retorted dryly.
'...Ugh. You mortals and your insufferable morality. Fine. But you can't stave off the hunger forever. Feed, or else you will find yourself changing your mind sooner than you suspect.'
"......"
She took the reins and guided her mount back towards the guild, eating her travel rations as she went, just in case. 5 in Agility to ride my horse back home.
Also eating what rations I have just in case All-Black's warning about the hunger turns out to be true, lol.

The redhead returned the steed where she had taken it, before walking back to the guild somewhat grimly and in silence. Or at least, silent outwardly, while she was mentally arguing with her new 'companion' within her mind... itself attempting to convince her to use her new powers to defeat anyone who opposed her, to kill those who would dictate her actions, and to rise up to 'her potential' and completely embrace what it could give her. Whereas she stubbornly retorted that she would use it if and when necessary, but she wasn't the monster it wanted her to be, and would never be, if she had anything to say about it. To which the symbiote replied, she was merely delaying the inevitable.
Shrugging, she went back to the guild, walking up to Mira if she was still at the bar, and looking for her if she wasn't.

You find Mira working on some paperwork late in the evening when most have already gone home to rest.
"Hey, Erza, where's Master?"

(OOC: If she's working on paperwork, may I assume she is in the office in the back, away from the others? If not, Erza will invite her to talk in the back.)
Erza
"It's... complicated. I am not allowed, by his own request, to explain the specific circumstances of how it happened just yet, but the master has become, so to speak, sort of 'trapped' in the body of a green-haired young woman for the foreseeable future", she stated. "...I will leave it to him, or her, whatever... to decide how and when to best explain wha happened when he returns. In the meantime, would you please keep it to yourself? I've let him know I would at least tell you of his new appearance so you know who it is when an unknown woman shows up", she explained.

Mira looks at you like you grew a new head. "If you were anyone else, I'd say you were joking." Mira sighed. "Alright."

"Believe me, I wish I was. But it was either that, or losing his life, so I'd say it's still not as bad as it sounds. I will leave it to him to tell you more when he returns", she said with a nod. "Do you know if Levy, Carla and Wendy are still in Fairy Hills at the moment?"

"I think they went back to rest. I don't know for sure. They seemed stressed all day."

Erza
"I can't blame them. We've had a rough day", the redhead said simply, nodding. "I will take my leave for the evening, and night, as well. Thanks for your help, Mira. Oh... almost forgot. The guildmaster said it'd likely be a while before he returned. I suggest us S-Class mages keep an eye out for trouble around the guild while he's away. I will be around the guild a bit more until he returns to help out with that."
She headed back outside, waving goodbye. "Have a good night."
Then she headed back in silence, her mind more than racing with a thousand thoughts.

You leave the guild passing by Lucy who is wearing a pair of sunglasses indoors.
"Erza… Is oniisan okay?" She asked worriedly.

"...He's alive, and safe", the redhead said after a moment of hesitation. "He... did not make it without harm, however. I can't go into detail myself as to how it happened, though I imagine he will tell you more himself later, but... perhaps I could tell you more of what happened outside?"

"No... It's okay... You can tell me later." She said keeping only one side of her face to you.

Erza paused, frowning in concern.
"...Lucy, what's going on? What's the matter with you?"
