Just as Dark was pondering carefully, the "Soul of the Moon God" flew up from below.
He asked, "Nothing?"
The "Soul of the Moon God" shook its head in disappointment. "Nothing."
Dark comforted it. "There's nothing we can do if there isn't any. Perhaps too much time has passed, perhaps someone extracted it, or perhaps... it never had any source divinity to begin with?"
