Sarah nodded "That would be nice, since a song I'm writing needs it. I already have drums and a piano, just need a violin. If I finish the song while I'm here, ill play it for you."
 
"Nay, don't be frightened. Despite their looks, they are quite kind creatures." Elewa hopped onto Pegasus. "Now, shall we take our leave?" Elewa reach out for Olivia's hand.
 
"Right." Olivia gingerly took hold of Elewa's hand and managed to mount the Pegasus with his help, albeit lacking in a graceful motion. "Phew! Not as easy as it looks without practice, haha... Alright, ready to go."
=====================
"I'd love to hear a solo from you, little one." Okawa smiled warmly. 

"Leaving so soon, Madam?" Lilith walked up to the two. 

"Well, I suppose soon enough. This is Sarah, a friend of mine. I want to take her to Magician Square to see if we can find a violin in the markets."

Lilith's gaze drifted down to Sarah and she bowed her head in acknowledgement. "Very well. We ought to prepare then, since the Square is rather far, even by your usual method of transportation."

"Ah yes! How could I forget?" Okawa looked towards Sarah and continued to speak. "Since it's rather frowned upon around here for a Demon like Lilith to not be accompanied by a Mage, and we can't suddenly close the shop when I'm away, I usually whip up a quick Disguise Potion for her. I don't think you'd be opposed to a little magic lesson before we leave, would you, Sarah?" She asked politely.
 
Sarah smiled "not at all Okawa. Even though my magic relates to music, I'd be glad to learn other forms."
 
"Alright! To Johannes Palace!" Elewa shouted. The Pegasus nodded began to run. When it built enough speed, it jumped into the air and flapped it's wings, soaring through the air.
 
Olivia let out a surprised yelp as they eventually began to soar. "Whoo! We're flying!!" She cheered with a carefree laugh.

==================
"You'll never know when a spell you learn offhandedly can come in handy!" Okawa led her to the back of the shop with Lilith trailing behind them once she flipped the sign on the door to "Out to Lunch" for the time being. 

"This kind of potion would work on transforming one's appearance between species; since Lilith is a pure demon, or at least as pure as she is currently, the spell alone won't work to let her mimic my appearance. For humans just shifting their appearance to resemble other humans, the spell is much less daunting to perform in comparison since it doesn't require the potion. Let's see... the potion calls for a Newt's eye, the blood from a leech right after it has its meal, the pulp and water scooped from the inside of an Aloe Vera plant, and the juice from wild cherries. It's not a very tasty potion, as you might imagine, but sometimes desperate times would call for desperate measures." She gripped one bottle among several others of similar looks from the top of the shelf that sat against the back wall. 

"Bottoms up." Lilith pulled the cork out of the bottle and immediately drank the potion, scrunching her face up at the awful flavor. "Blechh.... I'll never grow used to this, will I..."

"Now, the spell can be performed." Okawa lifted up a medium sized mirror and let Lilith hold it in front of herself. Taking out her wand, she began to swish it in different patterns through the air. "Energies of Illusion and Disguise, aide Lilith in her wish to stay hidden among the lights." The tip of the wand glowed a light blue before surrounding Lilith in the light as she kept her eyes trained on the mirror. Slowly but surely, her appearance transformed before she looked like a perfect copy to Okawa herself. 

"There! It's a bit hard to do on yourself since you must keep your eyes to the mirror and focus on how you wish to look while the spell changes your looks, so it's not that easy for novices to learn given the multitasking required." The witch walked over to a corner of the room and grabbed her broomstick.
 
Sarah was writing all the info down and nodded "Yup, I got it all in one."
 
"Very good. Let's get going then!" Okawa exited the backroom and made her way out through the shop front, with Lilith reopening the store.

"I'll be sure to keep things running smoothly while you're out." Lilith said, her voice having been also disguised as Okawa's. 

"I know you will, Lilith." Okawa got into position on her broom, motioning for Sarah to take her spot on the stick behind her. "Be sure to hold tight to my waist, okay?"
 
Sarah nodded and held tight. She smiled, glad to have met a friend recently.
 
Without further hesitation, Okawa began to concentrate her magic into lifting them both into the air with the broomstick, ascending to the skies towards Magician Square.

"Here we go!" Okawa pinched the rim of her large hat as they began to fly up faster and faster.

>>Okawa and Sarah have now left for Magician Square. Lilith is running the shop disguised as Okawa.>>
