Ancient Sovereign [5]

What was Iris searching for?

The problem was that even she didn't know.

Unlike Damien who had a definite goal for meeting the Ancient Sovereign and used their conversation to take steps towards it, Iris was just looking for an "answer."

Unfortunately, the Ancient Sovereign wasn't a man who would just give people what they sought.

He would guide them there in his own special way, and whether or not they could gain anything was up to them.

So Iris struggled.

As someone who didn't know what she wanted, she struggled.

The conversation she had with the wizened entity wasn't nearly as profound and long as Damien's, but it had its own value.

The Ancient Sovereign refused to give her what she wanted, but that was good for her.

Because, for Iris, who always tried to find the best yet most complex solution to every problem, had to learn how to take things at face value and accept them.

Who was she?

What did she want?
