Iskata hadn't been the one to find it but in the sittingroom of the old ranch home there had been under layers of dust and piles of books a piano. It still was there just sitting and waiting for someone to claim and make beautiful music upon it's ebony and ivory keys. Perhaps he would be the one to find the sweet music inside.

Iskata was more than surprised when the boy had hugged her, but she returned the gesture and sighed. "Take care too, Apollo. Just remember where you're family is if you need us.." she said with a smile. Turning to gaze towards Inferni for a moment she shook her head and stepped away out of the embrace. There was a brief pause as she wondered just where he was to stay out here but she didn't bother to ask, he'd done well enough alone this long and he'd fair the winds still. The cold wind didn't seem so blistering as she took the long route home, her mind thinking on the boy who'd left and returned. Like so many others before him and probably so many more to come.
