When the following day came, the group was informed by Eclair that Eriberto had woken up. Since she worked hard to treat and feed him, Eclair managed to heal one of his eyes… it was the only thing that she could do to make him realize that they weren't his enemies trying to fool him.
On the previous day, Eriberto looked almost like a living mummy, but now he looked a lot more healthy. It was a hit too soon, but all of his hair had turned white, probably because of the things she had to endure while being tortured. Since she had been cleaned, he looked a lot more presentable, but he looked a bit rough because of his long hair and dense white beard.
"You are… you can't be Shyona…" Eriberto muttered in disbelief.
"Why not? You have grown old, Eriberto," Shyona showed a small smile. "We heard in Pazia that you had traveled south, and then we came to search for you, but it looks like you have seen better days."
