Suzamete flew out of his palm and floated still in the sky, gazing at him intently.

<I never would have expected that two mortals could entice me so much with their battle. This perhaps was the greatest battle to take place on this world, as you said. Though its ending… I wouldn't say it spectacular claimed.>

Suzamete gave a weak, suspicious smile, but Boron missed it.

<Forgive me, then…> she said.

<There's nothing to forgive, my love. Nothing at all.>

Boron stormed downward, piercing through the veil of clouds in the sky, leaving Suzamete behind. The Deitess wore a dark visage.

<Forgive me…> she whispered.
