«So? What was the meditation about? What's your favorite food to eat when you feel bad?» Ojtaro asks her while she stands up after doing the second quest. He adds:«I swear on Megabird itself that this question is becoming so frequent!».
She replies:«Actually, the stone asked to say something for the newbies; advices!».
«And what did you answer? I saw you ponder a lot... Before letting your thoughts being transformed into candle».
«I just told the Moths to not be scared of what they'll find» Sentinekka tells him with a calm look. «And to never lose hope». She makes an unconvinced sound and then says:«I could do better with advices».
Oj' imitates her noise in a nicer tone and then exclaims:«Nah, I think that's a perfect help for a newbie!».
«Mh, you think so?».
«Of course I do! And, at least, your message it's better than a "I don't know" or a simple and terrible "Nope". Trust me, I've seen those thoughts often, and they are always so passive... Makes me want to become a creature of Light, since they surely have more imagination and vitality». The boy, chuckling, continues. «Now that you make me think about it...». He winks at her and... Puff... Some sparks surround him and turns him into a shiny and adorable butterfly!
Sentinekka gasps, amazed by Ojtaro's abilities. He can shapeshift! That's wonderful!
Ojtaro, in the shape of butterfly, flutters around her enthusiastically and leans on the reliev that should mark the presence of her nose; His golden wings, after one second or two, start moving again to fly away, and he resumes his human form.
«Tada!» he exclaims with a confident tone while crossing his arms.
«That was so cool, Oj'! You never told me you could do this, it's an amazing talent!» Sentinekka shouts, smiling. She loves butterflies, and Ojtaro got her surprised.
He smirks. «Thanks, it's the only thing that I actually like of being a magical creature or whatever I am. I got it from the Elders, mostly Ayin» he explains, looking down. It's kinda embarassing as situation...
He streches out a bit. «Shapeshifting makes my internal Light go crazy, I shouldn't do it often... But it's stronger than me». The boy tells her, while looking at his arms. «Sometimes I get some scars with this ability, but it's not that bad. This time, Megabird had mercy» he jokes, leaving his hands alone and staring at Sentinekka, who seems quite worried.
«Does it hurt?» she asks, anxious.
«No, not really, you can stay calm». A few seconds pass, and then he asks:«Do you want me to help you with the Light that you have to catch?».
«Don't worry, I can get that Light on my own; wait here, will you?».
«I won't move».
Sentinekka doesn't even wait a moment. She takes off with a running start and, after taking a slight leap, her greenish cloak opens and helps her fly. Sentinekka flies gracefully among the Butterfly Fields until the moment she touches the Light she was looking for, and finally lands, placing first her left foot on the grass, then her right one.
Rays of Light shine in her hand and dissolve a few moments later.
«Done!» she says, satisfied. «Wanna ride a Manta, now?».
«Maybe you want me to turn into an animal again, so you can finish the quest faster?».
«Nope, I like walking throught the islands of the Prairie! Also, I don't want to see you suffer again».
That's the truth. But she also enjoys to live every quest as it was her last one. Riding Light Mantas is one of her millions of favorite hobbies. The Warrior of Love, known as the brave Senshi, teached her how to do it! It was so nice of her!
