With Nisha, [[Laby]] manages to make it to the other side of the barrier, but she is badly hurt from being inside it for an extended period of time. [[Gaia|Bellond]] rushes to her side and takes her immediately towards the El Tower for aid. When he arrives towards the tower, the priestesses are shocked to see an outsider approach and [[Denif]] is surprised to see his pupil and fellow El Master return. Denif orders [[Darkmoon]] to take Laby and heal her wounds, the other priestesses follow to aid her. Denif thanks Gaia for coming back, and informs him of the El Priestesses, proof that his sister, [[Verdel]], and the other priestesses succeeded in carrying their duty. Gaia properly greets his teacher and proudly reclaims his duty as an El Master.
[[Darkmoon]] goes to try and heal Laby but is surprised to see that the girl's physical wounds had already healed. She wakes up and feel better, Darkmoon insist she rests for now and [[Artea]] explain where she is, also explaining that Bellond is the El Masters Gaia. Laby in confused and the priestesses offer to answer any questions she has. Laby asks about Denif and [[Anduran]] did notice that he and Gaia appeared to have a menor-pupil relationship, Laby then realizing that Denif was her teacher's teacher and the Sage of Fluone. Excited to learn of the fact, she jumped out of bed and ran to meet the masters.
Denif and Gaia were in the middle of a conversation where Laby arrived, she was struck with awe when she saw the Large El, saying that it was the same light that had allowed her to leave the Black Forest, the light she called morning. Denif curious of what the girl meant, asked her to elaborate. She told him of the Black Forest she came from and he knows at the very least she isn't human, however without additional information, he can't quite piece what Laby might be. Backtracking to what Laby said about the light, Denif called all the priestesses in to the conversation, though Ignia was absent due to overworking herself. Gloria informs them how by the time they were ready to treat Laby, her injuries had already healed. Curious, Denif asks her about the light she called morning, after she explains the three mornings and how she kept hearing voices till the third morning. Denif suspects the possibility of mind control magic, a demon specialty. Laby goes on to explains each individual light in detail. Denif concludes that the morning Laby spoke of were most definitely related to the Large El. [[Sasha]] equating the first light to the Nasod War, Artea relating the second to the El Explosion, and Darkmoon noting the last having been the return of the Large El that had just happened months prior. [[Anduran]] was shocked to hear that Laby might have been around since the ancient past, but Laby explains that she had been in the Black Forest for a long time. Denif notes that with [[Elsword]]'s involvement with the current El's restoration, Gaia is alarmed to learn of a boy with such power. Denif himself is too inconclusive of what to make of the boy, believing he either might be an Elrian of unprecedented power or a being similar to the El Lady. Laby gathers that the boy's actions freed her wishes to meet him, Denif notes that Elsword doesn't himself even realize what he might be, so no real answers would come from that. Denif then asks Laby about Nisha, but laby hesitates, simply calling it he friend. Denif easily notices her hiding something and steps down, not planning to pressure an answer out of her.
Collecting their thoughts, Darkmoon wonders if she could be a demon, noting that her aura feels similar to the demon generals. Laby says that [[Kallon]] had said a similar thing and wonders if she herself might be some kind of high rank demon. Though she goes on to say that Kallon said he aura was different. Denif and Artea ask about Kallon, Laby telling that he was a demon in the Northern Empire. Gloria tells Laby about how Darkmoon lost the Moon El to the demons and how the demons hurt all of them, with Darkmoon still blaming herself. Sasha tell her beliefs that either demon or human are capable of just as much good or bad, since it was the selfish deeds of [[Rod Ross]] which aided the demons in [[Hamel]]. Laby promises to stop anybody who bullies her friends no matter if she is human or demon, pleading them to not hate Kallon. The priestesses trust Laby, Denif is still a tad suspicious of any demon activity in the area. Laby tells him that Kallon was at odds with some of the other demons, Denif hoping so as much of the demon situation has stabilized since the El Search Party's victories. However, with the day soon reaching its end, Denif calls an end to their meeting and suggests they all rest for now as Anduran prepares dinner.
