In a certain room, Hosen sat on a chair in the middle of the room. On her lap was her little baby, Kintaro. And standing behind her was her older brother, Hajun.
In front of her, a man who somehow looked familiar was sitting. Behind him stood two other men, who lowered their gazes.
"Lady Hosen?" greet that man.
He looked very young, but Hosen couldn't call him a youth. He was a real man however, she knew. "Yeah, that's me," Hosen said calmly.
Ernacht smiled gently. "Welcome to the Continent of Darkness. My name is Ernacht Croix, I am the younger brother of the Mother of the World, Madam Victeur."
Hosen blinked. Ernacht Croix, a somewhat foreign name to her, though she seemed to have heard it for some reason somewhere.
"Spearmaster… no, the youngest Aura Master in history, and the Viceroy of the Croiso Kingdom, Rotund Imperial Continent," said Hajun. As the main adjutant of the Shogunate, of course, he knew.
