=======================
AFTER A WHILE...
IN THE HALL OF THE REALM...
=======================
=======================
Mei had just returned to the familiar palace, but her mind lingered in the white space.

Mei: "..."
Mei: "..."

Mei: 'For some reason, I must stop exploring the realm and assist Kiana-chan and company out in Kolosten.'
Mei: 'After bringing out the full potential of Herrscher of Thunder, I tapped into the source of the Gem of Conquest."
Mei: 'In doing so, I helped Kiana-chan out and made contact with "it" again.'
Mei: 'It was but an instant, but I saw it...'
Mei: 'The Will of Honkai.'
Mei: 'Like I had imagined, it was formless, best described as...'
Mei: 'A foggy mirror that reflected me.'
Mei: 'It was so close and yet so far.'
Mei: 'Naturally, it didn't give any valuable answers to my questions.'

Mei: "..."
Mei: "..."
Mei: "But not answering is an answer in itself."
Mei: "I'll learn what you won't tell me from those who have fought against you."

Mei: "..."
Mei: "..."
Mei: "...Where did Raven go?"
Mei: 'Did she really go missing in the realm as she said she would?'

Mei: "..."
Mei: 'Before I go and look for her, there's a specific person in the War Room I can speak to about the Will of Honkai.'
Mei: 'I wonder if "he" really knows about this...'
Mei: "..."
Mei: 'Let's ask him.'

ABOUT THE WILL OF HONKAI [1]...
TO THE WAR ROOM...
=========================
=========================
As Mei makes it to the war room, she meets with the certain male.

Mei: "Kevin, I need to ask you something."
Mei: "And..."
Mei: "I think only you can answer it clearly."

Kevin: "..."

Mei: "Has the so-called Will of Honkai existed back in your era?"

Kevin: "Will of Honkai?"

Mei: "You don't know?"
Mei: "Well, maybe the people of your era addressed it differently."
Mei: "This expression concretizes the concept of Honkai, the sole existence that reigns over all Herrschers."
Mei: "Basically the God of Honkai."

Kevin: "Some have compared Honkai to the God and Herrschers to its disciples."
Kevin: "However, this was only an analogy."
Kevin: "Some couldn't fight without a target—an enemy that could be visualized and understood."
Kevin: "They believed this was the only way to unite soldiers."
Kevin: "Whether the target was the God or some will, it didn't matter as long as it sounded credible."

Mei: "I understand, but what I'm trying to ask is: "What if it's more than an analogy?""
Mei: "The person who raised this analogy may have based it on their personal experience with the Will of Honkai."
Mei: "This is entirely possible."

Kevin: "A logical inference, but it doesn't stand."

Mei: "Why?"

Kevin: "Because it was the MOTHs themselves that introduced..."
Kevin: "And denied this analogy."

Mei: "..."
Mei:  "..."
Mei: 'As I suspected...'
Mei: 'In this Kevin's perception, "it" doesn't exist.'

ABOUT RAVEN [2]...
IN THE LOUNGE AREA...

As Mei makes it from the war room to the lounge, she sees Eden with a glass in hand.
But...
