"Come on Pearl, you knew that could just call me Phoebe. I think our experiences together warrants that." Phoebe let out a sigh of relief, it seems that she's currently on her 'prim and proper mode’ which means the talk could start on a good footing. She probably needed that for the night.

Nobody was sure when and how Pandora emerged so suddenly. Her only public knowledge is a cleverly placed foreshadowing in a single line of ‘Maidens of Might and Magic’ lore book and an already deleted video that somehow guessed her existence with wrong information. It seems the video was deleted too late because Pandora latched onto Pearl.

The problem is that she is not meant to be Pandora, the smug girl now known as Scheherazade is supposed to be. It was a chaotic mess when everyone found out. If there is a silver lining, it is that both are weirdly enthusiastic about the switch-up compared to her. Due to time constraints, Aspera decided to deploy her first in the meantime.

“But yes, let me explain why I asked for this, unfortunately I think Pandora is the one who is likely to know the answer” Phoebe opened before taking a deep breath, here goes nothing.

“So remember that I was supposed to be in a joint patrol with another hero?” She started the conversation.

“Well by the end of that I saw from emotion sensing something that might be equivalent to what you’re about to make me see. An impossible chasm…”

A chasm. A chasm unfathomable, one that could not be circumnavigated no matter how grand one's wings were. An alien gale whipped through sheer cliff faces, while beneath bubbled black waters whose toxicity caused birds themselves to plummet to their doom. Such was the hatred, the spite, the obsessive rage lying beneath the surface of the Moon Arrow, that all thoughts, all mirth, all childish petulance was silenced by the shadow within Amaris. There was no coming back from that. No coming back from this.
