[ It feels like she's been trapped in the maze for an eternity, followed closely by a version of herself she'd rather not show to anybody; as such, she's actually thankful not to have run into many people while in here. However, once she notices two young women... er, one young woman times two in need of assistance, she doesn't think twice before rushing to their side. ]

Y-Yes, of course! Here, let me help...

[ She takes the clone (?) girl by the shoulder, confirming that she's ready to go with a firm nod. Before she moves, though, she looks over to the reflection behind her and asks: ]

Um, I don't suppose you could assist us...?

[ The purple-haired girl stares down at them, pure disdain painted on her face. She says nothing, making no indication of being willing to support them in any way. Noel sighs, having expected this, yet feeling disappointed (mostly in herself) all the same. ]

Figured as much... I'm sorry, but it looks like it's just the two of us.
