"Beautiful, isn't it?" Esperia called out to her, causing Lily to take a few hesitant steps forward and asked in a soft voice. "What is it?" The question had made Esperia go silent for a moment, leading to the elf to look at her in bewilderment. She expected the silence would be accompanied by a frown, but instead she smiled, a look of nostalgia on her face.
"I would say it is the embodiment of our connection to a certain source of power. A benefactor of sorts." Esperia turned toward her, after which she continued speaking. "I apologize for bringing you here during your sleep, but I fear it is time for me to start teaching you about a secret power."
A secret power? "You mean Hermes?" The girl's inquiry made Esperia shake her head with a smile. "No, the power I am about to teach you today is something more raw, a source of magic that draws forth from your own willpower and soul."
