Of course, Eisheth understood Mei might be a bit hurt with her reaction, the alchemist had to keep reminding herself the ghoul was still just a student, but she simply couldn't help laughing at Mei's arguments. However, her last reply was an interesting thing to consider.
"You're wrong here", she answered. "Some of our people aren't exactly friendly towards Halloweeners, but as far as I noticed not all Halloweeners go along well with each other, too. I never said we aren't racist, and most of us don't feel any need to be comforted and empowered by Halloweeners. And no urge to comfort and empower them", Eisheth sighed. "We are obeying orders, and it was a highest decision to settle here, not a personal choice of every single horsemen. A lot of us, actually, would rather prefer to raid human world immediately and die battling. That would be a good way to die, to tell the truth, and I feel the same way. I'm not a sage here, and I don't question Medea's or Cymbeline's orders, but I think they have better view on the situation, and they should be thinking alliance would be good for both our factions in long term relationship. But nobody said it's going to be easy and fast", Eisheth paused watching over Mei's expression.
"Same in personal relationship", the alchemist had to admit. "You have to find some confidence in yourself first, then you'll be able to comfort the other, - and be comforted. It's like a chain, even consisting of just two links, - or more, if we're talking about peoples, - if one of the links is weak, the chain is in danger".
The alchemist places her arms on Mei's shoulders, and looked in her eyes. "Mei... relax, ok? We have time right now, time to enjoy our lives, not to ruin them".

Oh, thanks Queen, that was much calmer now, and the alchemist felt a bit relaxed. "Huh, do you know a better way of dying? Medea, Aisa, Heidla, all those Death ladies keep saying all paths lead to the same way, so there's only Death in the end, so isn't dying in the battle the best way to meet him? Though...", Eisheth caressed Mei's hair. "It doesn't mean we have to look for it as soon as possible, there's plenty of time ahead, anyway".
One of the ghoul's words was actually really interesting. "I wonder", she mumbled randomly. "If hunters get along so well with each other... if they have such a weakness, too, we have to be able to use it". She kissed Mei's forehead. "You should be the specialist in the human souls here".

Eisheth could easily understand the concept of working hard to master something: after all, that's what she has been doing all her life. However, spending so much efforts to master the dance... "Is it really necessary?", she wondered. "I've thought the dance is... just the dance. You listed to the music, to the rhythm of the world around, and your body moves accordingly, you don't even have to think, on the contrary, it's better to shut down your mind and let your body be......... I don't really want to break my legs. Or yours", the alchemist's voice sounded like as if she was already guilty.
