The Memories Return
Fria looked at William with visible confusion in her eyes. As far as she remembered, this NPC shouldn't know her name. This wasn't the type of game where the NPCs would automatically know you, you had to introduce yourself first.
Maybe he has known my name ever since we met in the Gravitas Ruins? That must be it. Fria concluded.
"I guess it has." she smiled. "You've become a lot stronger since the Trial Tower."
Unconsciously, tears began to flow from Fria's eyes, but she didn't understand why. She assumed it had something to do with one of William's many unique skills.
Now it was William's turn to be confused. Something about Fria's expression was off, and the way that she greeted him wasn't like his lovable sister that played video games and enjoyed slacking off. It was almost as if she and William had become two strangers on the street that had met once before.
