A Sword's Call
"Y…"
Staring at the long figure that reached the sky, illuminated by the golden rays of sunlight, a young adult stood in place mesmerized by the up-close view. If anyone didn't see what he was staring at, they would think that he was looking at the love of his life.
"Ray!"
"Huh?"
Finally breaking out of his trance, the world's one and only protagonist finally realized that Jade had been calling out his name for a while already. The 'empty' feeling in his heart had simply become too much.
"When are you going to stop this? I know we went through all of this trouble to finally get here, but you can't keep getting lost like this when we are already this close."
Although the Sword Garden Trial ended in a disaster, it was obvious that something fishy was at play. This further strengthened Jade's resolve to support Ray's rise so they could have the power of 'change'. According to him, getting closer to the Sword of Epoch was their most urgent task.
