Nighttime

Inside Jin's soul

Jin Skyward

It's been a while since I've been in here, even though I said I would frequently visit it... I didn't. Anyway, the scenery is still the same— The one I changed it to. I turn around and see the two Heavenly Dragons lying on the grass.

"Yo!"

I call out to them; they both open their eyes.

[Oh, hey, Partner.]

Ddraig waves his tail at me.

{Good evening, Jin.}

Albion did the same thing.

"Yeah, sup, anyway Cúntóir called for me here, where is she?"

The two dragons shrug at my question.

[She was here not too long ago... But she left, she didn't say anything to us.]

"I am here."

I hear a familiar voice and turn around. It was Cúntóir.

{Speak of the devil...}

[And they shall appear.]

The two dragons' tail-five— High-tail, whatever!

"So, what did you want to talk about? Why in my soul?"

"I felt it would be more appropriate for this discussion to be... Face to face."

Cúntóir seems to fidget a bit, then starts taking deep breaths. She seemed to be readying herself.

"Jin... I want to talk ab—"

She was interrupted by a sound.

Fwosh!

We all turn towards it and a vague shape of a human with blonde hair and red eyes appeared.

W-What? Who the hell is this? Blonde hair... I saw it once after I killed Darcel. I could see Cúntóir frowning now, she... Didn't look like she liked this entity.

"Why are you here?"

She asked the figure. The figure laughs and shakes his head.

"I just wanted to meet Jin."

It replied to Cúntóir.

"Who are you?"

I couldn't wait any longer, so I asked...

"I am, well. Heavily involved with your 'incident' during your reincarnation, Jin Skyward."

[I knew! Our previous theory on... Another soul that mixed or merged with you was right!]

Ddraig exclaimed happily.

{It seems like it is...}

"Is what Ddraig saying true?"

The new soul nods.

"Yes, when you reincarnated, our souls merged."

It chuckles.

"Your soul and one of my fragments merged with yours. Once it did, the rest vanished and was absorbed by you. My previous partner must have panicked even with the ones in their possession."

Soul... Fragment? So, mine and this entity's soul merged... Cúntóir was standing there looking speechless and unable to say anything.

"I will not divulge my identity to you, you may already have figured it out, if not, then you soon will."
