The murals of the Vault of Knowledge have this symbol. And it should mean something like "strenght". The Vault never went down, despite all the times the King tried to destroy it during his fits of rage and madness . So, when the Darkness began to stop acting, the Vault took a special meaning and a symbol: it was the only place who never lost a Village or gave up. It became the place of the wisest people, but of the real strenght too.

Wow...

Is Lamed trying to tell her something?

«Finally!» Symphony exclaims while reaching Ojtaro and the team of Sentinekka's friends, made of her, him, Orlando, Youssef and Tewezo, Timur, Mona and Yashi. They all were waiting for her, since she had to help the Village of the Sanctuary Islands. They needed her help because a boat stopped working, so she repaired it with some people as assistants.

«You did it!» Ojtaro tells her, crossing his arms and waiting for a justification for her delay.

Orlando greets her and smiles as the others do, while Tewezo adds:«Was that boat so broken?».

«If it wasn't for me... It could have killed some animal... Of... Of the Islands» Symphony replies, catching her breath. She had to run as fast as she could to get to the Isle in few minutes.

«You've been great, I think so!» Orlando pats her head and she smiles. Orlando is really lovely, in these days. Well, he's always like this, but she met him only before the Lessons of the Passage.

«Yeah, okay, okay, okay» Ojtaro shows Sentinekka's letter to the group. «Y'all ready?» he asks them. They nod, impatient to see what's written on that paper.

He opens the message and reads it fastly. Then, he explains. «Everything is fine. She's alright!». And, here, everyone does a sigh of relief. He continues:«She met two Moths that were actually from the Hidden Forest, and they were trying to get back home. The Seed of Hope was searching for them, so she gave them to him. They should be at home now. Anyways, she's reaching the Battelfield, as it seems. Maybe she already reached it, now».

«Anything else?» Yashi asks him, hopeful.

He answers:«She already wrote a letter to us, but it was lost somewhere. It didn't arrive. That's all».

«Alright, guys» Symphony begins. «As you may understood, the letters will all arrive here, at the Isle of Dawn. Ojtaro will call us everytime a message comes».

«Gotcha!» Youssef exclaims, excited. «But what if a letter doesn't come?».

«He won't call us» Symphony answers, and Ojtaro nods quietly. «We just have to hope that news come every day... I'm already getting worried».

«Don't worry, Symphony» Mona smiles and adds:«She'll always tell us something more. And she'll come back. I'm sure».

«How can you be so sure?». Yashi looks concerned. «The only idea of losing Sentinekka makes me feel sick».

She should look at Ojtaro. The only words "losing Sentinekka" block the circulation of Pure Light in his body. He could never stand it.
