Coming From: [Rift] Fall Of Chungsu: Kurama vs Kotetsu
Kōtetsu returned triumphantly from the breach having succeeded in his task of defeating the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox. He'd spent some time following the beast's defeat investigating the ruins to see if he could discover anything new that might have been missed the first time around, but it turned out to be a waste of time as nothing had come to light. In addition to his victory, the Inuzuka felt lighter. As if a large weight had been lifted from his shoulders. Though slightly, even the air around him had become softer. He walked from the rift and stopped a few meters away, clearing a path for any who wanted to enter and turned to the faceless one. “.…”

As the Beastly man returned from his endeavor into the Rift, he was immediately welcomed by the familiar scene of that to which he had left behind. Whatever frame of time he might have felt elapse in that of the Rift, seemed almost negligible in nature upon resurfacing in the material world. The towers of marbled white still stood diligently in place, the granite streets flowing in perfect symmetry to the overall architecture of the city's layout, and its citizenry bustled about with life and the comfort of knowing they were graced with another day of peace and tranquility. Doubtless this would be a stark contrast to the world in which the Inuzuka had only moments ago been subjected to; no matter how real or fake it may have felt.
As he settled on his position, he turned his attention to that of the Arbiter, or at least the position one might expect to find them, considering each and every instance thus far they have been found idly positioned by the Rift. Certainly this was no exception, as the Being remained static in their place, passively hovering just above the surface that lingered beneath their feet, propped up only by the tendrils that fluctuated gently around their form. If not for the occasional ripple of what could only be called "energy" throughout the outstretched appendages extending from their back, one might possibly mistake the faceless Arbiter for that of a well decorated statue; forever vigilantly watching over the city square they remained within.
It took little time for the return of the Riftwalker to receive a return of attention from the Arbiter; at least as close to attention as one can expect from another that has no visage. For a short while, the cosmic being allowed for silence to linger between them, as though to encourage a sense of calm over the air that he had once again stepped back into after whatever tribulations he may have faced. With one final moment brokered with silence, the Arbiter offered a delicate tilt of their head as what felt like a form of expression in place of a gentle smile. "Welcome back, dear Child." The Arbiter's voice hummed outward in a span that stretched the distance between them effortlessly, requiring no additional uplifting measures to reach the man regardless of the gap between them. Shortly after the warming reception, she opted to inquire further into the conditions of his return. "You return with your health in hand which is a sign of victory, yet you do not seem like a victor this day. What troubles you, Inured Soul?"
