Accepting The Truth

-----

The Great Spirit explained to Rita and Lily what was happening. The truth about everything. Rita was still coping about it. She simply couldn't believe it. She needed more proof for it.

"You couldn't log off before, don't you remember when we all tried to log off?" I asked her. "Also… Mark…"

"Mark? What's wrong with Mark?" Rita asked. "Is he… Oh wait, he's…"

"Yeah, he's Titan." I sighed. "But that doesn't matter now! The Demon King has the power to pierce the soul and kill us even if we are Players, he almost destroyed Mark's soul completely. I had to cut down my own soul and add it to his so he could recover, but even now, the body that has remained from him is… this."

I showed everyone the seed I've been carrying for a while now. It had the size of an almond seed and was slightly green on top and white below. It emanated a faint, magical presence. But Mark's soul was completely… asleep.

"Is he Titan? What has happened to him?"

Suddenly, we heard Acorn's voice.
