No, no, that was wrong!
How could that be Master?!
Before long, the light around the figure gradually faded, allowing her features to come into view, if only faintly.
She looked a little like her, but she wasn't her!
Phew~
That scared the life out of me.
I knew it. There was no way Master could be here!

The oppressive gloom that filled the Secret Realm seemed to be swept clean away by the violent winds.
The sky brightened, vegetation sprouted
