Chapter 89 - Chapter 1 Part 4 Journey to Eichenheim

A new job for Nacht and his group? It seems so, because a woman appeared before them.

Nacht: "Hmmm?"

Unknown Woman: "I want... you to come with me to Eichendorf."

Diego: "Eichenheim?"

Nacht: "Hmm?"

Unknown Woman: "It is a small town near the Kingdom of Erfurt im Breisgau."

Diego: "So... that's the name of the kingdom... alright, I don't know much about it."

Nacht: "I know a little... it's one of the newer kingdoms... several kingdoms were founded during the last fifty years... alright then... what is the job?"

Unknown Woman: "Uh... well... I'm looking for something..."

Diego: "Hmm?"

Unknown Woman: "I'm searching for the hat of the wizard Strohhelm."

Diego: "Man, I can't anymore with these names... who calls themselves Strohhelm?"

Nacht: "Watch your tongue, rookie. That wizard saved many lives... show some respect."

Diego: "Sorry, model lady... didn't know. You know me and history are like a fish without water..."

Nacht: "Fine... but why do you believe he is in Eichendorf? And more importantly, why are you looking for him?"

Unknown Woman: "Mmm."

Nacht: "Listen, I can't help you... if you don't tell me why."

Unknown Woman: "Hahh... My name is Jeanne von Einhaven... I... am his granddaughter..."

Diego: "Ugh."

Nacht: "Granddaughter?"

Jeanne: "Yes... I even have a fairy tale just like you... Jorinde and Joringel."

She showed it to them.

Jeanne: "See?"

Nacht: "Oh... I understand..."

Jeanne: "I would gladly show it to you... but... something is wrong with my magical core."

She pointed at her neck. The symbol was, as always, a star... but it was not glowing.

Nacht: "You seem to be suffering from... some kind of magic loss. Is that possible?"

Jeanne: "Yes..."

Diego: "I... think we should really help her."

Nacht: "Hahhh... what do you all think?"

Kisa: "Yes... helping her would indeed be good."

Charlotte: "Yeah, let's help her."

Mona: "Okay."

Jeanne: "Thank you... thank you very much... would you like to get into my carriage?"

Nacht: "Oh... you have one? Does that mean you're accompanying us?"

Jeanne: "Of course... I can take care of myself too."

Nacht: "Hmmm..."

They looked at her. She wore a white off shoulder suit with an open back and exposed midriff, along with long black pants. She had blonde hair and blue eyes.

Jeanne: "Well?"

Nacht: "Fine by me."

They went outside.

Diego: "Wooooooooowwww... what the heck..."

Nacht: "Ugh."

Jeanne: "This is my carriage... it's called an oil carriage..."

Basically a car.

Jeanne: "Hehe... get in."

They got inside and she started driving.

Jeanne: "Hmm."

Diego: "Wooow... how cool."

Charlotte: "Super cool!!!"

Jeanne: "Should I drive faster? Hehe?"

Diego: "Yes please."

Charlotte: "Yes."

Jeanne: "Alright!"

She accelerated.

(Vrooom!)

Nacht: "Woow..."

Diego: "Holy moly!!!!"

Mona: "Ughhh..."

Charlotte: "Ohhh... this is... yeah... fast."

Kisa: "Hehe."

Jeanne: "This cost me a lot of Grimms... hehe... in Erfurt im Breisgau, things like this are common among nobles."

Nacht: "You're a noble?"

Jeanne: "Yes, but I don't really like them... hold on tight... here we go."

Diego: "Huh?... Huh?!"

Charlotte: "Aaaaaaarghhh."

Their eyes popped out like in cartoons.

Jeanne: "Hehe."

She jumped.

(Vrooom!)

They all grabbed onto each other.

(Crash!)

Jeanne: "Hahahahaha... so... what do you... um..."

They were sitting there completely shocked.

Nacht: "Please never do that again..."

Jeanne: "Oops... sorry... hehe... but we're here."

Diego: "Ugh... wow."

It was a beautiful town.

Diego: "Wow."

Nacht: "Hmm."

The town was small, but beautiful. There were lanterns glowing with purple light... and countless plants everywhere.

Jeanne: "Yep, we're here... hehe... ready, my dear friends? This is Eichendorf."
