It's taken so long to get here.

Calliope had disappeared months ago, after an ominous and sad message, and you hadn't heard from her since. Then, one near-destruction of the universe after, you found yourself in the void, and followed the path to where she was hiding as a ghost.

"Callie?!" You gasp, and she jumps before spinning around, frozen in shock. Indeed, she isn't a troll nor a human, like she'd said, but you couldn't care less as you run to hug her, squeezing her into your arms.

"Oh, hello there." She squeaks, taken aback. "I apologize, I didn't have the time to change into a less... unsightly appearance." "What are you talking about, Callie?" You exclaim. "I'm just happy to see you!"

Calliope seems even more shocked, but also deeply touched by your words. It doesn't take her long for her to get out of her shell, and soon you're both lying on the floor, as she shows you the art and writing she's been doing.

"Oh, and this is you, actually. Fighting a mean imp!" She giggles, showing off a cute drawing of you performing a sick roundhouse kick.
