Chapter 50: Yokuvalelisa Uthando Lwami

Days become weeks, and weeks turn into months. As the years come and go, I forget about that horrifying vision. Additionally, I decide to control my obsession with studying. 'I need to spend more time with Laulu.' The conclusion stems from a fear of losing her.

I sigh heavily as my mind focuses on the present.

While sitting in the grass, I watch my fellow performers. Ava, the troupe's crimson Mystiikka, has recently picked up a love for sword dancing. She shares an act with her favorite tulitaikuri, the bronze Mystikka. Although I admire watching their coordination, the tulitaikuri's fire wielding creates a stronger sense of unease. 'Why do I feel uncertain?' The question crosses my mind when watching more of their act.
