The Saintess of Springs Versus The Saintess of Death
-----
Celes and his mother, Nia, were standing atop the tallest rooftops of the city. Accompanied by Takeshi, Laura, and Tear as their bodyguards. Naturally, Eustace was also manifesting himself behind Celes, protecting the child's back. At the same time, Nyx was watching over them from the skies. The Saintess was already beginning to conjure more of her powerful magic.
"Her barrier is really tough; I wasn't able to break it!" Said Celes. "It is fueled by a lot of divine power… M-Maybe from the Goddess of Water?"
"Most likely." Tear nodded. "You did well, little Celes. Don't overexert yourself and let us also take some of the burden. We've been tasked with stopping her attacks while Maria and the rest take care of her."
"You've got your mom here as well!" Nia said, wielding her spear. Her wind aura erupting from her body. "We're ready for anything!"
"That's right…" Eustace nodded, wielding his phantasmal sword.
