"[color=82ca9d]I am revered by humans and respected amongst your kind yet you do not know me?[/color]" The voice was holy and powerful but was also loving and kind. She giggled softly before resuming. "[color=82ca9d]You must wake now. Your friends have need of you.[/color]"

And with that, you awaken. Not a rude or sudden one but you open your eyes peacefully. You see that you are in a foggy forest away from the chaos of battle. It appeared that you had been carried here by your allies whom you noticed were fewer than you last met them. Much fewer.

"Thanks miss. Argh, this hurts." Jarde said as he let you perform some aid on him.

"You've helped a lot during the battle... but we never got your name." He started. "You look like you're from that southern continent. What's it called again? Iapana? Heh, I've always wanted to go there. I heard it would be like stepping in a new world." The prince remarked. "Also, what were you doing in Dragonrage Pass? Are you a mercenary or something?"

-Everyone-

After being healed by Keerin, Merilia spoke up. "[color=red]Hey, I just wanted to say thanks. To all of you.[/color]" She said before turning to the aqua-haired Sage. "[color=red]We couldn't get anyone else out. Come to think of it, you was right. We lost more by going back for the others, didn't we?[/color]" She sighed, returning her gaze to everyone. "[color=red]But... I appreciate that you decided to still go back for the others. I think I'll apologize to Keerin later. Though I don't know if that's going to be enough.[/color]"

Meanwhile, Keerin remained silent as she made her way to the Prince who was being tended to by [u]Tomoe[/u].

"[color=red]That aside, that battle did not start without a reason.[/color]" The female Hero shifted the topic. "[color=red]I know we don't have any solid evidence yet but what do you think guys happened? Whose fault was that entire thing.[/color]" She asked everyone present. "[color=red]This is gonna be big, you know? The Dwarven Kingdoms and the League of Arcadia are at war now, I'm sure.[/color]"
