Chapter 20: An Uneasy Alliance

Cleaning the well in the Grove of the Ancients, Ember and I made our way back through the now-clear forest. Energy from the trees felt much brighter, reflecting the spirit of life as if returned. But there simply wasn't time to rejoice about the victory-the Nexus pushed us to continue further, and something told me this was only the beginning of some big problem brewing somewhere deep inside the System.

The next notice that came along was a sound so familiar to my head.
