"...Oh." Isa looked down to the whistle. "I don't... I don't think they'd have changed anything. Not unless they fought outside of the kingdom. That guy, the one that talked, he did something to himself in order to hurt Aera."

"...I guess you're right. I don't know what I will do to that guy when we will encounter him again but I'm not gonna forgive him or Colorado for what they did." Mirai said, intently.

"You shouldn't." Isa said, matching his intent perfectly. "...Honestly, with someone like that.
I'm not sure if I should even bring him back." She turned away from Mirai, turning her head up to the clear blue sky and the blindingly bright sun above them. "I don't think his kingdom deserved what happened to it, not his wife, not anyone else. But... Someone who does things like that... should they get to be with those people, who didn't do anything wrong?"

"...I don't know. Everyone is so complicated and frustating that it makes me just want to hit them all with this sword because of how stubborn they are with their grudges." Mirai sighed.

"...I just wish these people could look at the bigger picture for once." Isa sighed, crossing her arms. "Don't they know what's going to happen to this place if they keep fighting like this?"

"...I guess it's really up to the two of us to put a stop to all of this, right?" Mirai asked.

"...Maybe so." Isa said.
Then, behind them, there was the sound of a something stepping against the ground before stopping, followed by a horse whinnying.
"Hm?" Isa turned her head, eyes going wide when she saw a uncanny figure seated atop a completely white horse, un-naturally so, even its eyes were completely white.
And it was looking straight at her. The figure atop it was staring off behind them- in the direction of the Kraven Kingdom, wearing a golden laurel over his curly black hair, with his golden tanned skin and healthy looking body beneath a white tunic and a red cape with a golden clasp. He had strong facial features, thick brows, a square chin. The 'horse' he was seated on had no reigns, so instead he held onto a bow and arrow, with a glistening crown hanging from his side.

"...Who the heck are you?" Mirai asked the man, tilting his head.

The man said nothing at all, instead he kept his gaze up at the sky, watching...
up until a crow flew across it, a single bit of black against the light blue, casting a shadow down on the spikes as it flew over them and towards the wall around the Lakhani kingdom.
The man readied his bow, drew an arrow and released, sending it flying, it pierced through the crow perfectly and stabbed itself into the wall, impaling the bird there.
"...Mirai, we should go." Isa said, grabbing onto Mirai's sleeve with a bit more force than necessary.
The man then turned his head, a pair of eyes filled with gold staring straight at the two of them.

Mirai did what Isa requested as he grabbed her by her wrist and ran out of there, going far away from the man.

The man directed his attention back over the mountains, past where Isa and Mirai were going, towards the desert.
He didn't give his horse any directions, but it took off in that direction anyway.
Isa watched as he vanished, digging her fingers into Mirai's hand as she let herself get dragged along. "It's okay, he's gone now, we can stop." She told him.

"Who the heck was that guy?" Mirai asked her.

"...Okay, you know that Orpheus guy we saw like, half a hour ago?" Isa asked, ripping herself out of Mirai's grip and almost tripping.
They were right next to one of the crystal spikes in the barricade, every single side of it was showing a new and distorted reflection of the world around it. Isa looked at her own many broken reflections with wide, wide eyes. Grabbing onto the ribbon around her neck.
"He's important to the god of darkness. Like, Vitala made the muses and neonytes, things like that, she's a god of inspiration and light. Dorcalla made demons, he's all about sins, solitude and darkness and stuff.
That guy was made by the goddess of death. He's- why's he even showing himself to me!? Does he know- does he recognise me...? That can't be it..."

"...Do you think he came here because people died just a few moments ago?" Mirai guessed, tilting her head at her reaction as he stared at the reflections.

"That doesn't make any sense, people died back in the commune, why didn't he show up there!?" Isa yelled.
She then slapped both of her hands to her mouth, "Oh- oh no, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to yell, I'm just..."
