I closed my eyes and started to slowly stroke the bow across the two lines of the haegeum, making the instrument produce the sorrowful sound that rang out to the crowd. I played the notes that the kind woman had taught me when I was practicing playing the instrument while taking a break before. The sound of the haegeum sounded as if my broken soul was singing its pain, telling the crowd how I'd felt in the past.
I heard Sona playing her instrument from behind me, her instrument's soft sounds floating around her like a soft and warm breeze gently blowing around me.
Then, I started to sing the song slowly while pouring my soul into my voice.
The song that Ahri had sung to me whenever I'd woken up crying in the middle of the night by a nightmare.
The song that Ahri had sung to me a month after we decided to live together while staring up at the stars in the heavens.
It was a song with no rhymes, but it didn't need rhymes to make it a song that warmed people's hearts.

There are many stories
About how the stars were created
But right now, I will tell you
One of the many stories
.
Once upon a time
On the highest mountain in Runeterra
There was a kingdom of angels
Where no mortals dared to go
.
In a house of a cruel noble
His daughter lived under his wrath
She had no friends to share a friendship
She was all alone in the world
.
In a house of a cruel noble
A servant boy was badly treated
He always cried at night in his small room
With no one to tell him, 'it will be alright.'
.
Then, I made my voice to sound hopeful, as if life was getting better. I started to stroke the bow more gently on the two strings of my instrument, and I heard Sona doing the same. She must've memorized this song when I was practicing two days ago because that was the only time when I saw her.
.
One day, the girl learned to pity
The servant boy in her house
Whenever her father's wrath scathed him
She always comforted him with hope
.
They became close friends
Their friendship strong and powerful enough
To even withstand every hardship
That came in their way
.
Their bonds shall never be broken
Nor it shall die
Nobody can break
The connection between those two
