After seeing Margaret's face again, Varsas Gungnir decided that enough is enough.
He move in to confront the mastermind behind this incident
"Why aren't you doing anything?"
"I am not doing anything because I have already worked so hard."
It was a simple conversation with a servant, however when he first met her he already know she as not someone simple
The little girl screams at him this time, unbecoming of her servant look. He looks at her sadly and gently hoping that she would understand. The moment he first saw her he has already known yet she on the other hand did not. He realized who she is immediately yet she doesn't realize what he has gone through.
At that moment, what happened...could be considered a mental attack. Varsas suddenly has nostalgia, or more accurately in this situation, it is the vision of the future.
He saw a lot of beautiful thing. Comrades, victory, places that he has been through.
He saw bonds being formed, he saw the budding of a friendship. It is not just Margaret but Vaine, Viola, Fenryr and all of his comrade. It was a beautiful thing this vision of the future. If Varsas was his younger self he would have immediately been inspired by this vision and went on an adventure to meet these people, create these victory and bring a miracle to the world.
But he isn't, what these visions give him is only a sense of nostalgia and lost. What he has lost by doing nothing this time around and choosing his family. It was sad but Varsas has made up his mind.
When she saw him not reacting at all to these future vision, only giving her a sad smile, she screamed at him.
"Why aren't you doing anything? These beautiful bonds waiting to be made, this friendship unbroken by time, this beautiful future that is just waiting to happen. Why aren't you doing anything? Why are you just standing there dumbfounded like that? I don't understand, the peaceful future was so beautiful, why did it deviate in the first place, starting from you?"
Varsas is afraid.
He chose to not take any arms because he was confronting a child. However...
She is one of those people.
A child she may be, but in the first place she is also a creature thousand of years old, capable of seeing the present, future and past, that is the reason she is doing this in the first place.
There was a people living on an island outside of time, they watch over time, seeing all the present, past and future. Once upon a time, Varsas Gungnir seeks their tutelage and wisdom to do at he must, that is why he knows of their method.
That is also why she has that much power over the Venir.
When the Venir patriarch personally appears with Margaret, Varsas Gungnir immediately knows something was wrong. The past has been changed.
The Venir family does not like the Gungnir family, they even plotted their demise after all. There is no way they will attend one of the family's part.
That is unless there was no external factor. But the Venir family themselves are strong, it is unlikely something could affect them.
There was a people who could
The Venir knows of the existence of her people and keep it in secrecy just like everything else they do. Even in the future before the massacre happened, Varsas remembered the Venir's elders being really respectful of him because of his good relation with the isle outside of time. A lot of people did so. An existence of a people that can meddle with time and know of almost everything frighten everyone.
Varsas was not like that. Because he was taught by the queen of the isle of Lan Sphere, he comes to see them as just human. From what he learned of her teaching, he realized that no matter what the future has in store for him, he just has to face it as it comes. She told him to live his life as he saw fit. Knowledge about the future is not always right she said, no matter what happen time would always move forward, no matter what happen, the world find a way. It is because of those teaching that when he first came back, Varsas didn't hesitate to change the future. Time will find a way.
It is also because he was under their queen's teaching that Varsas realized who the little girl is the first time he saw her. She was a denizen of Lan Sphere island, an isle that drifted out at sea, a nation that is outside of time.
A nation whose queen was killed by him.
However just because he immediately realized who she is does not mean she realizes his status as a time traveler.
It is not outside of the people of Lan Sphere to interfere with current events, to "set the future on the right course" as some of them said. Some of them saw a beautiful future and tried to make it come true for the people of the world, some saw a horrible future and tried to interfere before that happened. That is why the people of the rest of the world fears and respects them. In their hand are power that can easily change the world or topple nation. Knowledge of the future is that powerful. The queen of the isle on the other hand care not. She lived just as she did thousand of years ago, the only time she changed was to take him in and trained him. Varsas doesn't know what she saw in him, did she hope for him to save the world when she taught him?
It does not matter.
"There... would always be another future. The world... finds a way. Those bond between comrade may be beautiful but it could change. There could even be other bonds more beautiful if that future doesn't happen. The peaceful future is beautiful indeed, however that does not mean I am needed for such a future. The people of the world are stronger than you realize."
He tries to carefully approach and console the crying girl. She is still a child, a child who didn't get the future she wanted.
"What do you even know about the future? Your feeble mind can't comprehend the knowledge, the past, present and future are all accessible to me. You don't understand. You have to enlist to the Mahaima's army now. You are going to be known as the hero who ended the war. You are the only one who can slay the terrible War entity Varsas-reon." She pleads with him.
Varsas on the other hand almost flinch when he heard that name. It was such an unfortunate name given to that monster by the mass. It may be understood as the monster that was slain by Varsas, but the real reason for its name is because it looks exactly like Varsas at the end. Everything about that monster unnerve him on every level.
"I just can't understand how the future change." She cries.
Now, how to carefully tell her that Varsas is from the future.
