Aura

(This is...Hueco Mundo. Why am I in Hueco Mundo?)

(My wounds are healed?)

Nelliel

Oh, you can sit up? That's Roka for you. I thought you were a goner.

Aura

You... I saw you in the Valley of Screams.

Nelliel

Yeah, I'm Nelliel, and that's Halibel over there.

Halibel

............

Nelliel

She's just shy. For the most part, Halibel's nice to children and people who are fond of children.

Aura

Why am I here?

Nelliel

I brought you here. I couldn't just leave you like that in the Garganta, right?

That building you brought here turned out to be a nice playground for the Picaro kids.

It looks out of place in Hueco Mundo, but that'll change soon enough when it gets covered in sand.

Aura

You saved me?

Nelliel

Yeah. Well, half of you.

Aura

Half?

Nelliel

Maybe you haven't noticed, but you can no longer return to the world of the living like before.

Your soul was nearly wiped out. We had to rush to treat you.

The air here is thick with Reishi, so you'll probably recover quickly with your ability, right?

Aura

Why did you do all of this for me?

Nelliel

Huh? If we left you alone even your soul would have vanished.

Aura

............

Nelliel

Hm? Are you hungry?

Pesche, Dondochakka! Let's eat!

2. After the battle

Aura

Um, what is this?

Nelliel

It's a meal made with monitor lizard and Asteraceae flowers native to Hueco Mundo. It's not somebody's soul or anything, so don't worry about it.

Aura

It's...good.

Nelliel

What do you plan to do after this? If you want to pass on properly, I can introduce you to Ichigo.

Aura

No, I have nowhere to go. I don't even know if I deserve to have Konso performed on me, either.

Nelliel

Oh really? Then how about taking it easy here until you find something you want to do?

I happen to be interested in the cuisines of the people in the world of the living! Could you help me with my cooking?

Aura

(I thought I'd never get the chance to see Hikone again.)

(So what should I do now?)

Nelliel

How about it? Do you like cooking? I do. I'd really love to have Ichigo and his friends in the world of the living taste my cooking one day!

Aura

(Maybe if that man and the Soul Reapers expand the Soul Society more...)

(Maybe one day, Hikone will be able to come here again.)

(Hikone might even taste the food here, too.)

(Maybe the day will come when I'm allowed to visit the Soul Society.)

(If I can be brave enough...)

(I can see Hikone again.)

Nelliel

What's wrong? You're so hungry that it's making you cry?

Pesche

No, Nelliel, she must be crying tears of joy after tasting the dessert I made!

Dondochakka

Or she could be crying because it tasted so bad.

Aura

No, it's delicious

I love...eating.

I'm sure I'll grow to like cooking, too.
