Once he leaves the - self-help meeting, Prime goes to his list of things to do. A lot of it has to do with Perinixu's temple and the acolyte responsible for bringing the goddess here. And magic, always magic. In particular, creating a stack-able set of portals-necklaces with limited amounts of mana is a challenge Prime hasn't encountered before. Even he can't manage it, not in the time frame that he'd like it to be finished.
So, he does the obvious thing. He outsources. He's not the only mage in the world, not even close, and he just so happens to be extremely rich. He asks (well, asks and then pays) a talented stoneshaper to make the necklaces in one fell swoop, and then spends several hours bugging significantly less busy mage healers at hospitals to make the portals. He only manages to get three sets, but he deems this 'better than nothing.' Especially considering most mages don't have a strong enough bloodline to manage a portal on their own. Just three was difficult to get, and required a lot of teamwork.
With that done, he heads off to Perinixu's temple, to shower Spring with gifts. In the sense that he will hand them to her, and then ask her nicely to use them to heal people.

"Hello," says Perinixu, subtly annoyed at being addressed so casually.

"I," says Zeviana, "am just going to take this mirror with me and return it when I come back. Be back - Mmm. Later. Let's go with later."

"Sure. Please don't keep it too long, I like to be able to call my alts."

"Mmhm!"
And then she heads off to - gather money. So she can go screw herself.

She comes back with money, has it changed over, and then is brought to Pantheon.
Her alt and Luzia are already waiting.
As expected, they have lots of fun together. After the first few hours they get magic involved.
Luzia needs to take a break to check on her husband and kids, and since her daemon is responsible for keeping Lecasryn entertained - the alts finally have a chance to talk to one another in between other activities.
"So you and your Adarin never had the thing, then?"

"The thing's - I don't know how to explain it, it really wasn't just one giant thing of terrible that made me want to punch his face in. It was - lots of little terrible things that added up to the thing. That was terrible."

"Specific. Is everything up there still working, you old fossil? Did I break you?"
sequoiadendron
Her alt snorts.
"No. It's - okay, how far along were you before you got out, like, how many years were you on New Kystle?"
"No. It's - okay, how far along were you before you got out, like, how many years were you on New Kystle?"

"Oh, wow, lucky you. Yeah, then the thing barely even started by then. But - you know that thing he was doing where like - everything else was more important than him?"
headunbowed
"Yyyyyes? It was annoying, I told him to stop it. He did, but only after he met Isabella and they were all - lovey."
sequoiadendron
"Awww. Aww, that's cute, good for Isabella. But mine - never did."
sequoiadendron
"Nope. And also, he did this thing where - if I wasn't helping him, then I didn't matter as much as the thing he was doing."
sequoiadendron
"I know, right? So - watch out, I guess. Even though it probably won't be a problem, because you ditched New Kystle early."
headunbowed
"Yeah. Shit was unhealthy for him. I said from the start, ditch the bastards, but noooo..."
sequoiadendron
"Ugh, yes, I mean obviously he hated everything about being there! And mine just - stayed! Because he is still all -" She waves her hand expressively, and deepends her voice to try to sound more male. "- 'I want to change the world and, it has to be this exact way! Nevermind that I am miserable!'"
