"Is this what is called the divine afterglow? Why is it appearing now?"
"Divinity is deep within your Ring of Fate and soul. It only manifests in this way at certain special locations or in environments where soul power is prominent. So, now..."
Shard looked up to see Miss Luisa stopping ahead and looking back:
"I see, we are indeed dreaming now."
"Oh, Shard, what is the matter with you?"

"You felt it..."
"No need to remind me. If I still don't understand, that would be quite foolish. This trope is a bit vulgar and cliché... and Miss Luisa never addresses me by my first name."
"Shard, why aren't you speaking? Have you found traces of that thing?"
