"Someone stopped the water by stabbing a sword into the ground?" You say, not bothering to hide your disbelief.

The villagers nod earnestly, some of them still attempting to pull the sword out. You laugh, "Meliodas won't like this, he loves Vanya Ale. Can't make ale without water..."

You haven't seen Meliodas for sometime, having gone off on your own after traveling with him for years.

Squinting at the polished sword, you walk up to it, shoving the villagers out of the way.

"A Holy Knight who goes out of his way to make innocent civilians suffer because of a smart mouthed kid doesn't deserve to be called a Holy Knight," you state, clasping the hilt and yanking it out of the earth.

A silent moment of disbelief echoes through the town before water pours forth. Cheers resound as you examine the sword in your hands.

People begin to thank you but you shrug them off.

"Just make some more great ale and we'll be even."

Who has the strength to do something like this? Must be a knight of high standing in the order.

It's been a long time since you've even paid any attention to the Holy Knights. You've been cruising through life alongside Meliodas in his tavern, partying the days away.

That is, until Elizabeth showed up.

She changed the ignorant life style that you had adopted as an dishonoured member of the Sins.

So, now everyone is trying to find the missing members of the Seven Deadly Sins. (There may be eight members, but everyone decided to keep the original name. That does make it a bit confusing though.)

You observe the townspeople. They are happy to have their water back and surprised that you managed to do what they could not.

Fed up with the joviality, you take the sword and walk out of town. Meliodas must be here by now, you muse as you meander.

Suddenly, you feel an intense aura coming from the north. You turn and close your eyes in order to feel it more accurately.

It's familiar somehow.

And powerful.

An object flies through the sky, approaching you. Bracing yourself, you manage to catch the large lance.

Smiling, you throw it with all your might.

Return to sender, you snicker.

The trees rise high above you, shrouded in mist. Moss cushions your feet as you traverse the woods.

In the distance, Meliodas and Elizabeth are searching for Diane. Meanwhile, you felt the need to go off on your own.

As if enchanted, you allow your feet to move on their own, leading you to a foggy clearing. Glancing at the new surroundings, you me eyes connect with those of a pink-haired boy.

It takes you a second before you recognize him.

"Lil Gil?!" You ask, smiling. "I haven't seen you since, well, since you were little!"

He doesn't return the smile.

This isn't right.

When he was a kid, he was obsessed with you, begging to hang around you and the other Sins. Right now he seems stoic, if not a bit angry.
