Miko's POV. One year after the Minamoto Clan Massacre. Minamoto Estate, Narukami Island.
Miko: The ancient clan that first served Makoto.........
Miko: The clan who along with the First Electro Archon, founded the Shogunate......
Miko: The clan who wrote our culture.........
Miko: Our laws.......
Miko: Years of legacy, all passed down even up to this day and yet.........
Miko: All because of human greed.......
Miko: The pioneers, were massacred, within a single night........
Miko: Asahi, my dear friend..........
Miko: In the name of our friendship, I shall take care of your precious treasure.......
Miko: Though he may not be directly under my protection........
Miko: But I came to acknowledge Shiro as if he were my own child.
Miko: *sigh*
Miko: Also, about his true nature.......
Miko: How am I suppose to help him if you kept the secret about Shiro's identity to your grave.......
Miko: Or......are you planning on revealing that fact in the future?
Miko: But........
Miko: How unfortunate........
Miko: But still........
Miko: One year ago.......
Miko: I lost another good friend..........
Miko: Don't worry, Asahi. I'll watch Shiro for you.
Miko: So be at peace.
???: Lady Miko?
I heard the soft sounding footsteps of a person, and when I turned around,
Ah, that blonde hair and blue eyes.......
Miko: Shiro, it seems like you're here to pay a visit to your home.......
He then walked and stopped beside me as I finished my sentence when I looked back at the ruins of the Minamoto Estate.
Miko: Or what was left of it.......
Shiro: Lady Miko, I heard from my father that you lived in the era of the Cataclysm, right?
Miko: Yes, I was so young during that time.
Miko: So, let's say I am around 500 years old.
Miko: What made you curious about that?
Shiro: Five hundred years, and even during the Cataclysm, huh?
Shiro: I guess I wouldn't be able to understand........
Miko: Understand what?
