We finally have arrived at Uraya. The ship docked in Fonsa Myma's port and we got out of the ship. Mythra stretched a little and I just stared at her. I kept walking and a small Gormotti girl with a White Tiger looking creature passed by me.

After 10 seconds, I gasped and stopped suddenly. I for some reason they were very familiar. I turned around and I saw both of them talking with Mythra. The girls hugged each other like they haven't seen each other for a long time.

I smiled as I watched that cute scene. I had a wood box (conveniently) next to me so I decided to sit and wait for Mythra.

It took a lot of time untill the three of them departed from the dock. They passed by me like I didn't exist and I followed behind. Mythra probably forgot to introduce me but that was fine, I didn't mind.

We walked upstairs and passed a large and gigantic gate. I gazed at it, it was an astonishing architectural masterpiece.

"Say, who is this guy following us?" I heard the gormotti girl asking Mythra.

"Ah, don't worry about him. He is my butler." She said then looked back at me with a smirk.

"At least give her my name." I replied.

"Well, he doesn't seem useful except for complaining. I'm very curious why you haven't kicked him out." The gormotti girl said.

"These are Nia and Dromarch. He is Kevin by the way." Mythra said in a way that the introduction didn't matter at all.

"Nice to meet you, young boy." Dromarch said and Nia just waved. I waved back.

"Nice to meet you too." I responded nervously.

After that awkward introduction, I scratched the back of my head with my right hand and showed a fake smile

"He doesn't have anywhere to go. I rescued him from the streets." Mythra giggled after saying that sentence.

"Hey! That's not true!" I replied annoyed.

"And it seems getting bullied is part of his daily routine." Dromarch added.

I simply gave up and sighed a little. I rose my sight and kept walking behind them.

We passed through the Theater and I stopped to gaze at it. It gave me an uneasy feeling.
Then I saw the posters and it seemed there was a debut act, it was called "Tales of Heroes: Vandham". I rose my eyebrow, the name sounded familiar but I couldn't figure.

"It is a theater, in case you don't know." Said Mythra.

"He isn't used to the luxuries of life, eh?" Nia replied.

I ignored both of her comments and decided to continue my path. I passed between them without saying any word and the girls looked at each other confused.

I must admit, the place made me feel insecure and uneasy. I wasn't aware of my surroundings and I didn't pay any attention at all - I was in automatic mode.
The only thing I did all day was this: thinking.

We arrived at the inn and the attendee was waiting for The Aegis and me. It looked like she was aware of the situation.

I grabbed the key for my room and went to it, leaving the three of them behind.

"Geez, the dude lacks social skills." Said Nia.

Mythra remained silent and crossed her arms. She looked at me with a concerned face.

Later that same day, when the moon was above all of our heads, I suddenly woke up from my nap.
After opening my eyes, I felt like something was calling me. I looked around and there was none and nothing - only me, my weapon and the four walls.
I couldn't describe it properly with words, but I was feeling like I had to be somewhere else.
