Chapter 67 - Aid

Luke's mind raced as he registered Lunaria's plea. 'I suppose there's no avoiding this situation,' he thought.

Turning to Lunaria's parents, he spoke with an unwavering determination, "Aunt, Uncle, I must step away briefly. Luna urgently needs my assistance. Please remain here and safeguard the premises. There's no cause for concern regarding Luna and the others."

Without pause for their response, he swiftly departed the house. Donning his Mystiwind Moccasins, he disappeared into the dense expanse of the forest, his figure fading into the distance.

Upon encountering the colossal World Tree, Luke chose to alter his course. He remembered Lunaria's caution about the spirits that found refuge in the ancient tree and their inclination to avoid disturbances.

Respecting this wisdom, he diverted his route, skirting the World Tree, and pressing onward towards the direction of Lunaria and the others.
