"You're not dead yet."
After a brief moment of stunned silence, Palkia finally got a clear look at the figure before it.
Yes, it was him.
That human who had appeared before it long, long ago, when this land was still called Hisui.

Above the Space-Time Tower.
Hu Yang looked at Darkrai and reassured
