THE QUESTION that Naru asked Sora didn't leave him. He took it home when he left the forest.
He wasn't going to linger on to that question if it weren't for Naru's deductions.
[FLASHBACK]
"Naru," it was Kahaku who stopped Naru from asking. "Of course he's a human. If he was a celestial being or in any divinity, do you think he would live his life as a mortal?"
"Well," Naru looked at him from head to toe. "Mortals cannot see us unless we let them see us. But this kid," Naru looked up at him again. "Even when I tried to manipulate him, control him with my powers, he was unfazed. He was unaffected. And the color of his eyes…it seems familiar…"
"Naru," again it was Kahaku. This time his voice was scolding. "Let us drop the questions here."
"But—"
"No more buts."
The two looked at each other for a while, they were as if fighting in silence—in their minds, until Naru sighed and drew back.
