"Perfect timing! I'm going to carefully put away the gift Pher gave me. I'll give you the Vortex of Genesis for now."
Tribbie gave a few instructions and left. Hyacine continued her search for the ancestral spirits and walked to the " Tides in the Basin ".
"... I will return to the heavens with the heroes from the Prophecy to retrieve the Core Flame."
"Ancestors, please bestow your generous blessings..."
A flash of clear blue light appeared, and Hyacine summoned the spirits of her ancestors through the Rainbow Box.
"... Child, why do you appear before me? Could it be... that you are a descendant of the Sky Clan?" The spirit of the ancestor looked at Hyacine before him.
"You guessed it right, I am Yaxinchengsi of the Duskglow Courtyard, the inheritor of the Sky Clan's mission to Flame-Chase."
"You must be General Tekla, right? Legend has it that during the Golden War, you led your people in an alliance with Okhema to resist the attack of the Kremnos Army—your victory earned the Sky Clan a place in the Holy City."
Tekla smiled with satisfaction. " Hyacinthia... It seems you are quite familiar with our family's genealogy, child."
Only then did she turn her attention to her surroundings and ask, "This is... the Vortex of Genesis?"
"Yes. Look—ten stars have already been lit up; the Chrysos Heirs ' Journey of Flame-Chase is nearing completion," Hyacine explained to her.
"That's... the Core Flame of Fagina and Georia? That means, Hysilens and that mountain dweller... they successfully fulfilled their mission?" General Tekla murmured.
"Ha... As pillars of Amphoreus, I never imagined that the destiny of 'the Sky' would only be fulfilled a thousand years later."
"Because the 'sky' encompasses all things, if it were to disintegrate, the world would be crushed. That is why Aglaea chose the Core Flame of Aegle as the final act of her journey."
" Aglaea...? A thousand years later? Is she still walking the path of Flame-Chase...?"
Hyacine shook her head. "... It's a pity she only recently left us. But you're right about part of it... she is indeed still guiding the Chrysos Heirs."
"Incredible. That girl actually withstood the relentless erosion of time... and persevered until this day."
"I ask you, Hyacinthia —since you recognize me, shouldn't you have also read my own handwriting?"
"I have memorized all the historical materials related to my clan—including your handwritten notes, of course."
"Then you should know that I once received a prophecy from a certain Tribios."
"Of course—"At the end of the Rainbow Bridge, the Child of the Sky will mend the dawn and dusk.
Hyacine memorized the prophecy, "However... unfortunately, no ancestor has been able to decipher its meaning to this day."
"I see. But Tribios's prophecy has never failed... Perhaps you will witness its fulfillment, child. May the prophecy bring you a gentle destiny."
"Thank you, Lady Tekla. Whatever the prophecy points to, I will face it head-on—because only by doing our best can we smile at any outcome... Don't you agree?"
"Ha... I like you, child. I wish this conversation could have lasted a little longer."
Tekla placed her hand on Hyacine's head. "Accept my blessing, Hyacinthia. When I first met you, I did have some worries..."
"... But your conviction touched me. If the divinity of the sky is destined to be replaced... I hope it can take over your optimism and gentleness."
"Your approval is invaluable, General. Rest in peace... I will certainly make the best use of your gift."
After a conversation, Hyacine received a second blessing from General Tekla.
"General Tekla... is quite different from the image portrayed in historical records; she was actually a very gentle person."
"Let's go back to the Grove... We can't keep Little Dan and Little Ica worried."
In the Grove of Epiphany of the Whispering Woods, using the " Ocean " secret technique mastered by Dan Heng, Hyacine returned with small, delicate steps.
"Beep beep! Beep!"
Little Ica was the first to fly up.
"You're back. How was the trip?" Dan Heng asked.
"Yes, everything went very smoothly. Your Spiritwater technique was a great help, Little Dan."
"What did that ancestor's spirit say to you? Would you mind telling me?"
So, Hyacine briefly recounted her conversation with General Tekla to Dan Heng...
Seeing Dan Heng remain silent, Hyacine asked Curiosity:
"What's wrong, Little Dan?"
"Nothing, everything sounds to be going smoothly." Dan Heng shook his head. "It's just... I'm a little concerned about that prophecy you mentioned."
"At the end of the Rainbow Bridge, the Child of the Sky will mend the dawn and dusk."
Dan Heng frowned slightly. "For some reason, I seem to be able to sense a slight... sadness in these few words."
"Is it because Little Dan is prone to melancholy?" Hyacine guessed.
"Lady Trinnon interprets many prophecies every day; this is just one of them, nothing to worry about."
"Come on, Little Dan, don't look so gloomy. We're going on a long journey to pray to our ancestors for the last stop."
"The final destination is His Excellency Mydei's hometown— Castrum Kremnos."
Dan Heng seemed lost in thought. Was the "prophecy" about the Chrysos Heirs really so ordinary?
The scene shifts to the " Strife Ruins " - Castrum Kremnos.
Although its functionality is slightly weaker than Star's " Gate of Myriad Paths," the Elf Priestess's " Eternity " Milk Tea is not without its advantages!
You wouldn't believe it, would you? These days, milk tea can be used as a disposable transportation tool. Dan Heng Hyacine have certainly seen something new.
"How strange, it's clearly a drink, yet its effects rival those of Little Dan's ' Spiritwater Mystic Art '..."
Dan Heng still can't understand the principle behind the " Eternity " milk tea. Is it some kind of wish-granting ability? Or is it the incomprehensible conceptual power of the Aeon?
Based on current experience, this milk tea is practically omnipotent, from everyday drinking to murder and arson, and now it has even unlocked the ability to teleport people.
If I were to reveal a little bit to Hyacine, she would probably say something like, "Hmm... then why didn't Little Dan choose milk tea in the first place?"
" Mydei Di is fighting the Black Tide alone here, day after day... I'm a little worried about his condition," Hyacine said.
"He had previously sent a message via thunder, warning us to be wary of the Flame Reaver ' actions."
"That means he hasn't been completely overwhelmed by the Black Tide's frenzy. We're here to complete an important mission, so it's best not to interfere in his battle. What do you say, Little Dan?"
"Agreed." Dan Heng had no objections.
"Over there—the restless soul there is my grandmother."
"Your... grandmother?"
"Yes. My grandmother Hyacinthia, was a fighter; she also participated in the Kremnos Festival for the Duskglow Courtyard."
