It was unknown how long Arima and Anastasia fought, their bout had spread throughout the Luhei province unrestrained. On one part, Anastasia had no one left in this region to care about, her entire clan has either been sold out as livestock or already killed in the slaughter-fest organized by Arima.
As for Arima, he never really cared about anyone other than himself and his own benefits. Yet, he had to maintain the safety of the Oracle in his palace, Lord Xue was still attempting to decipher her soul fragments and prey into her memories, or at least awaken her from the restless slumber.
