"Seryoso ka ba, Luna?" Paninigurado ni Pream.

"Did I hear it right?" Stress na sabi ni Iraia habang sapo ang ulo.

"May panahon pa ba ako para magbiro?" Irap ni Luna at muling binagsak ang ulo sa balikat ni Sefarina'ng marahan namang tinapik-tapik ang pisngi ng kaibigan.

"Gago, paano?" Mahinang bulong ni Veton sa sarili na tila nasa isang malalim na pagdi-diskusyon kasama ang kanyang sarili.

Sefarina looked at him with disgust in her eyes before facing Luna.

"'Wag ka nga ma-stress, papanget ka lalo." Mahinang lait niya kay Luna na biglang may kalakasang tinampal ang kanyang pisngi.

She winced in pain. "Aray, gago. Bakit may kasamang galit?" Nakangusong reklamo niya kay Luna na ganon muli ang ginawa pero sa kabilang pisngi naman niya.

Makikipag-away pa sana siya nang senyasan siyang manahimik ni Luna at tinuro ang kanyang ulo bago inikot-ikot ang kanyang hintuturo.

"By now, we should have considered Dea Tacita's message from the Moon Goddess."

All eyes turned to Enfys, who was standing near the glass window, looking out with a distant expression.

Dea Tacita, the messenger of the Moon Goddess.

Luna felt the weight of her words, recalling their last encounter with Dea Tacita. The woman was both captivating and frightening.

She was beautiful, like a goddess, but her presence always signaled something dark. Every time they met, it was followed by death, a loss that felt inevitable.

The last time they all met, Dea Tacita warned them about the dovetail. A certain dovetail that had been unknown to them until the prophecy told them so.

It was something they never heard of, yet it was tied to their fate. The prophecy mentioned it, but none of them knew what it really meant.

"The dovetail... is the Akita?" Hindi siguradong saad ng dalaga at tinignan ang katabi na inilingan siya.

"No."

Arrow's voice broke through the thick silence.

"They are different. The Akita is the enemy for it craves power." Pahayag ni Arrow at tumayo bago minuwestro ang kamay para makapaglabas ng joule.

The small sphere of light hovered in front of him. His fingers moved, tracing symbols in the air, connecting them as if showing the relationship between the two forces.

He slowly turned toward them, his voice firm—low, but impossible to ignore.

"While the Dovetail is the power."

Damien stood up, joining Arrow inside the sphere, his focus intense. Together, they studied the symbols, working to understand the deeper meaning of the prophecy. 

Their movements were precise, their gestures deliberate, as if they were solving a mystery that could shape their future.

Napakunot ang noo ni Pream. "So... hindi sila iisa?"

Damien shook his head. "No. The Akita was created to take power. But the Dovetail carries it. Naturally. Without needing to steal or conquer."
