Vol. 4 - Chapter 18

The walk back to Amber had been spent in silence, so far. Ash was mostly focused on trying to keep an eye out for any monsters, specifically the ones who had been attacking earlier, while Sinneah appeared distracted, for obvious reasons. Still, as they moved through a field of sand and dirt that stretched almost endlessly, it was only a matter of time before one of them spoke up. 

And, Ash was the one who did so first. 

"... Gurron told me a little about Tomoe," Ash said. 

"My mother?" Sinneah raised a brow.

"Yeah," Ash nodded. "Who was she?" The half-demon asked, still curious as to whether she was some sort of old Savior. 

"I was never told much about her, as a person," Sinneah shrugged. "Only that she was an incredible warrior and an outcast. A human without a place to call home. That is all." 

Is that it? Someone like her has to have made a name for herself. Maybe I should ask around.
