On their way to the Eastern Continent, Trigger got a nightmare of an unknown place but he feels like it might connected to his origin. And his party even encounter with Enma, a Kyrieloid, which challenge Trigger into a battle but it ended up with a draw. Trigger ask Enma if he knows about his past, but Enma told Trigger that it is a painful one and suggested he find out himself before leaving.

(Forest)

The party are riding their carriege and continue their way to the border. While of them are inside, Klove and Alice are out at the back, and Gilbert and Yuno are at the front with Gilbert controlling the horses. Trigger sat on top of the roof and yawn.

Trigger: It has been a week, and we haven't reach the border yet...

Yuno: It can't be helped, your collague just appear and challengr you into a duel.

Gilbert: I never thought you had a rivalry with a Kyrieloid. They are quite dangerous beings that have been cause many destruction in the past.

Trigger: I maybe don't remember, but after the battle with Enma, he's not that type of person. After all... Others tend to judge other people quickly based on what they saw and heard, not how they know them, which caused by fear.

Yuno: You sound so wise for someone so young in your race.

Trigger: Well, I did learn many things from the people we met. Not to mention, even Serena's father herself did taught me few things.

Gilbert: When the king take interest in certain people, he'll just do that.

As the carriege continue to move, Trigger sense something even from far distance.

Trigger: *in mind* Who's out there?

He sensed several people who are running across the ground and even jump across the tree branches all around them.

Trigger: Gilbert, stop.

Gilbert: Eh?

Trigger: Just do it.

Gilbert: *nod* Got it.

He pull the ropes and make the horses stopped while keeping them calm. Trigger get on his feet while remain on the roof, glancing around.

Trigger: Whoever out there, just come out. We mean you no harm!

Then a group of people come out from the bushes, along with most of them are on the tree branch. While they mostly wear cloak and hood, Trigger's excellent vision able to see through and recognize them. The group of people are Elf, among the demihuman races that scattered across the world. Elf mostly reside in the Western and Northern Continent, built their own village, town or city mostly away from human, and can live up to 2,000 years old. Because of some past conflicts, most human and elf didn't get along well. The elves up in the tree are aiming their bow at the carrieges.

"State yourselves! Who are you and what your business here?"

Trigger: We are adventurer party! We mean you no harm! We just passing by, and head for the Eastern Continent! The map shows that the safest way to get there is going through the elven village!

The elves glance at each other, feeling unconvinced by Trigger's words. Then among them, one elf step forward and landed on the ground before opening his hood.
