It starts to get dark, the wind snorts with more and more humidity.
Off the mountain are the survivors of the battle.
Sadness floods their hearts.
WAPURO and ESU, remain close to TOIRE.
INKU, even hurting from his wounds, although he received healing, has not fully recovered.
OKE, is next to you.
NAIFU, UISUKII, NEMU AND KIRO are close to PRINCESS SATORI.
It is so much the sorrow that SATORI AND TOIRE feel for their lost loves and the pain that they have died in severe battle.
SATORI, blames itself for not having known the legacy that lived in KEKI.
If she had known before, having told AISU, of her offspring, maybe... maybe AISU wouldn't have died and everything would be different.
So true is it that, perhaps, he would not exist. It was his own weakness and little faith in the reaction that AISU would have had that took him away from him.
SATORI feels guilty.
They both cry in silence with such sadness that it hurts to see them.
TOIRE tells himself that, if he had had the strength, the power to have faced AISU, KEKI would be alive, he saw her all the way to NANEKI, killing herself at every turn.
Striving to be strong for others.
He feels guilty for being so confident, somehow he was at ease because he knew she was strong, somehow everyone depended on her more than they should have depended on.
WAPURO comes to comfort TOIRE, she and ESU have finished healing everyone else, the blows and fractures have healed them and the body pain is tolerable, only to heal TOIRE remains to heal.
As you apply healing, WAPURO speaks softly to you.
He warns you that what he will tell you will not make you feel better, but somehow he will understand why they happened, that is how things happened.
TOIRE is still with his head down.
WAPURO confides in him that, he should know that, KEKI, no longer used his born power since before arriving at NANEKI.
TOIRE pauses and sets his attention, staring at the ground.
WAPURO continues, she explains that KEKI used if vital power.
It is known that CHOSEN children who are born from neighboring or distant villages, if they are born with gifts, are rigorously trained under CHOSEN standards.
Therefore, it is also forbidden for them to form families or think so even of love.
Tragedy always reaches those who break the rules.
As what they know about KEKI has progressed, she turned out to be the daughter of two stars, NANEKI AND RYU.
That's why KEKI was able to resist until now.
TOIRE looks at WAPURO.
WAPURO continues to talk, she exclaims that, even so, she could not escape the fact that, at 14 years of age, she found herself in love (TOIRE's eyes crystallize when she realized that KEKI loved him too), that happened in the castle (TOIRE reacts), that's when she lost her star.
ESU embraces TOIRE.
Now TOIRE knows that he, pressed her so much that, ended up making her realize her feelings for him.
He feels guilty about making her accept the idea. WAPURO tells her that, she was destined to lose her power in 14 days, that's why KEKI was in a hurry to get there and that's why she was desperately fighting to keep moving forward, to get to NANEKI.
There is a general silence.
Now everyone understands the burden that KEKI carried day by day.
TOIRE feels that it was he himself who led KEKI to her death, cries desperately and asks for forgiveness, loves her.
Desolation falls on everyone, only the echo of silence is the response that TOIRE receives.
It starts to rain.
None are in the mood to seek temporary shelter, all continue to sit in the same place.
When the sun has set, the starry sky fills the entire sky, bringing a slight peace to wounded hearts.
Almost imperceptibly, small traces of vegetation are appearing throughout the valley.
After a few minutes, at an accelerated pace, vegetation sprouts from the earth, the small grasses, growing until they become trees.
Just like in ancient times.
THE PRINCESS, has perceived something in the sky, a flash that vanishes from the firmament.
SATORI, a little comforted, says with sadness and a little hope that, if someone loves an angel... the miracle of life is possible.
That place that, for thousands of years was desert, has become a valley full of life, and the sun shines as never before on those lands.
This is amazing because, it's night.
