“It was over two centuries ago.” He stood up. “She stayed dead during those times, why would I think anything would come out of her now?”

“With you, I believed she had already been replaced. A new Master, her time was over, gone. The gems will always have their masters, I have discovered. At first, I was worried, but then you proved to be more than one with a mere link.”
“I had visions of her. I told you everything.”
He shrugged. “I thought it was just her lingering presence since she was the one who was connected to the gem before you. They are just mere visions, they don't suggest a powerful presence to get bothered about.”
“You must be joking,” she stated, flabbergasted.
“I had dreams of her every time and nothing ever really happened as a result,” he replied with a dismissive tone.
“You know that is not true.”
