[Misaki left United Sanctuary. There was nothing she could learn there.
She truly felt useless.
…But that’s just part of being the Oracle, isn’t it. You’re a watcher, not a player. Do not get involved; you’ll only hurt yourself.
But she’s already this far. To simply back out and go back to her neutrality… She cares too much for that.
Caring. For Aichi, for Kai, for Ren… even Bengal, she supposes.
Failure of an Oracle, and failure at anything else. But… there has to be something she can do beyond simply watching…
If nothing else, she should at least inform Kai of her failure. Misaki sighs, and decides to head for the Dragon Empire.]
/Meanwhile, inside the castle, the Knight readies himself for a long journey.
Many units whisper in every corner, wondering about his recent behaviour, wondering if maybe, just maybe, it’s a sign of breaking? (“so young, what a pity…”) or maybe his interest now lies on something bigger than them? (“Bigger battles, endless battlefields! we should get ready too, Aermo!”). They can’t do more than gossip, after all, since he stubbornly refuses to tell anyone his destination.
Kai was getting ready to choose which other weapons he should take with him, carefully examining the castle’s royal armory, when Neharem approached him, talking about the visit of the Oracle. He nodded, letting the commander know he will meet her./
