The appearance of the Supreme Covenant Civilization gave Yu Yuan a much deeper understanding of the Civilization Ladder.
Day 194 of the Wasteland Calendar.
Starry Sky Observatory.
Yu Yuan had arrived early.
Dawnlight stood quietly behind him.
As she looked at the observatory, memories from her days as Miemie surfaced in her mind.
At times her brow relaxed, and at others it furrowed. Every so often, she stole a glance at Yu Yuan in front of her, a faint smile touching her lips.
Just then, countless stars scattered their light across the sky. The light became streams of iridescence that converged on the Starry Sky Observatory and the Starry Sky Realm.
At last, they formed a silver-white card that drifted slowly into Yu Yuan's hand.
Dawnlight looked at the card with curiosity.
[Celestial Phenomenon—Star Chains]
Quality: Silver
Function: When used on a target, it confines the target within the current area, preventing escape for one hour.
Yu Yuan turned the card over in his hands.
"Spatial confinement..." This card was a good find too.
He placed it in the Book of Fate, then turned to Dawnlight.
"Dawnlight!"
"I'm here," Dawnlight said softly.
"Tomorrow, we're going on a trip."
A faint smile appeared on Dawnlight's face, her eyes curving into crescents.
She did not ask where they were going or what they would do. None of that mattered. As long as she could stand beside the Leader when he made his decision, that was enough.
Yu Yuan met her gaze. She seemed to understand everything, yet care about none of it.
Then Dawnlight gave a gentle nod.
"All right."
That evening.
The stars shone brilliantly over Giant Tree World.
The legendary Pisces Destiny Compass floated before Greenfield.
Two fish swam around Greenfield, their forms shimmering beneath the countless stars.
