Shiro's POV.
I chose to go just outside of the estate and sat on the cliff, with the view of the sea and my intention to........clear my mind.
Ever since that night.........I'm having nightmares frequently.
Nightmares of the burning estate, our servants and guards being killed, my father being surrounded by the Tenryou Samurais..........
The blood that stained the snow around the Minamoto Estate during that time...........
Shiro: *sigh*
Shiro: Emiko and I promised to never speak about what we experienced on that night because of, we wanted to move on.
Shiro: The only ones who knew the whole story before was Ayato. I gradually told the truth to Ayaka, but only parts of it and covered it up as, "That is as long as I remember."
Shiro: But now, she knew the truth. But not just her, Aether, Paimon, Thoma and surprisingly, Ei.
Shiro: *sigh*
I gazed up to the skies.
Shiro: How I really wish I was powerful enough to protect my whole clan.
Shiro: Though I did manage to save one.........which is Emiko, I just helplessly watched my home engulfed in flames.
Shiro: I always blamed myself for being so powerless and I couldn't even do anything to prevent it.
Shiro: Even if Father and I arrived earlier, the result will be the same.
I then took my Vision from my belt and held it tightly close to my heart.
Shiro: I may have gained a Vision, but at what cost?
Shiro: I guess when I lost everything on that night, I just gained something in return.
Shiro: "Is the demise of my family became the price for my Vision?"
Shiro: I asked Lady Miko that question when she is helping me control my powers.
Shiro: But she replied, "No. Though the demise of your clan may have some factor, it was still your ambition that granted your Vision. It was your ambition that the gods looked down upon you and saw your dedication."
Shiro: That's why, when Emiko and I was adopted to the Kamisato Clan, we tried to live with this new way of life.
Shiro: And somehow, we found peace.
Shiro: But to think that what if none of this could've happened?
Shiro: Maybe even the Vision Hunt Decree wouldn't even happen, maybe Inazauma would've not ended up like this?
Shiro: *sigh*
Shiro: But with everything that was said and done...........
Shiro: Inazuma is now currently getting back to its ordinary life........
Shiro: I guess it is also time for me to see world, huh?
