Elsewhere in a distant land filled with white grass known as Del-hamiri, Roku stood near a pond and sprinkled grains into it for fishes to feed on them and as the action took course, the cloaked man appeared behind Roku.
"I never thought we would meet again... Asnath." Roku said.
"It's been a while since i've heard someone call me that name." Asnath said.
"Too long." Roku said, "Now look at what you've become, a nameless being of the shadows, driven by his endless thirst for destruction; one i can't even call a shell of his former self."
"I'm only doing my duty." Asnath said.
"Why are you here?" Roku asked.
"Did you know?" Asnath asked.
"Know what?" Roku asked.
"That the successor of the Dragon empress has been found." Asnath answered.
"I did." Roku said.
"Oh, i see." Asnath said, "Tell me, when her tribe was destroyed, did you have a hand in saving her?"
