Shiro's POV. Grand Narukami Shrine. The night before the Vision Hunt Ceremony.
Shiro: So you're telling me that my mother's powers includes healing and divine protection?
I asked the fox envoy who is currently reading the journal we found a few days ago.
Yae: That's right. After all, Kaguya wasn't a god who wanted to fight, but she is not a weak god either.
Yae: With power all over the moon, she must be at the same level as Morax.
Shiro: What? But as far as I heard the Geo Archon is who they considered as the strongest among the Seven.
Yae: *chuckles*
Yae: Have you forgotten, Morax is 6,000 years old. He is strong because he fought and won many battles throughout history, even the Archon War itself.
Yae: As for Kaguya, she is around 4,000 years old. Not to mention, her authority, the power she possesses is something that one cannot take so lightly.
Yae: After all, the moon is important to the world. It maintains the tides of the ocean, provides light in the night and even inspires hope.
Yae: And that, is also a form of eternity.
Shiro: Eternity, huh?
Shiro: Lady Miko, since you have a close connection with the Shogun, can I ask you something about her?
Yae: Sure, go ahead.
She closed the journal and waits for my question.
Shiro: As far as I know and from what I heard, the eternity that the Raiden Shogun pursues is an unchanging land of eternity.
Shiro: Inazuma that is unchanging.
Shiro: Does she plans to keep Inazuma literally as it is?
The Guuji went silent as she sighed.
Yae: You haven't met the Shogun, haven't you?
Shiro: That's right. I refused to attend to the meetings of the Tri-Commission because I know that the Tenryou Commission will be present and I fear for the worse.
Yae: That someone from the Tenryou Commission might recognize you and that is certainly not a good thing. I know your circumstances.
Shiro: ...........
Yae: As for your question...........
Yae: Yes, she wants to keep Inazuma in a stasis.
Shiro: Stagnation, to prevent Inazuma from progressing and flourishing as a nation?
Shiro: That's not right. In the end, we are all bound to change...........all in this world are bound to change.
Shiro: And without change..........
Shiro: How are we able to grow?
Lady Miko went silent in my words as she smiled.
