Whoosh!
A streak of rosy light flew across the high skies above the Chaotic Star Sea. At first glance, it looked just like a rainbow.
But it wasn't a rainbow at all. The sky was overcast, and there had been no rain or sunlight, so there could not possibly be a rainbow.
After a while, the streak of rosy light flashed out of sight, flying straight toward the horizon.
But it soon turned back and stopped above a small island. A graceful fairy appeared in the rosy light, standing atop a red-and-blue flying sword.
