"Aren't you going to help Aurora?" (Ynes)
"No and neither should you." (I)
I was in a special crystal castle room where a round table has an energy sphere that shows scenes from the dungeon, but now I'm using it to keep track of what my little brother is doing with his would-be Heralds.
The only one with now was Ynes, she appeared as soon as Natasha left, I don't know why everyone always ends up coming to as if they knew everything.
"That head won't be any use to her." (Ynes)
"That depends on her definition of useful, she knows better than you what's coming." (I)
"It doesn't matter if she dies, I don't know how she found out the location, but that place…" (Ynes)
"She'll be fine and she didn't go alone, her sister is watching her closely." (I)
"Besides, the head itself is irrelevant to her, what she needs is the unique Essence that that God had, you might get sothing out of it." (I)
"In that place there is more than just 1 dead God." (I)
"That place is forbidden for a reason." (Ynes)
"There are many forbidden places, our next destination is one of the biggest forbidden spots in the Universe and I'm sure Zenos created another forbidden spot with that area for the Holy Beasts to live." (I)
"Don't worry, the chances of her failing are high, but she's not in any danger." (I)
While talking to her I saw Zenos' Familiars take their candidates and I understood what he wanted to do, I also saw him taking the Lady of the Grave leaving his bSaints creating a more suitable place.
"(Ne wonder what trials he chose for them)" (I)
"I don't understand how you can be calm..." (Ynes)
"Because once we end up on Tarzor, that's going to be the next place, that place needs to be destroyed and only Zenos will achieve that." (I)
"You are kidding!?" (Ynes)
"No, besides, you will also benefit from this, so stop complaining." (I)
"Everyone needs to be ready, our ti is not unlimited, the Great Gods have been preparing for centuries and many other Gods have been preparing for decades... I tried to stay out of this and just be a pawn in my mother's hands, but with Zenos nearby..." (I)
Sigh
"We no longer have the luxury of prudence." (I)
"I didn't think you would beco such a coward after being reborn." (I)
"I ended up in this situation because of my recklessness, I can't even describe my sha when I rember the things my old self did, I don't want to make decisions anymore without thinking comprehensively about sothing." (Ynes)
"(I wonder how Nix will handle Xagar's ordeal.)" (I)
The conversation with Ynes was getting nowhere, so I continued paying attention to the images where the Night Dragon spits Xagar onto the ground on top of a mountain.
------------------
Pov Xagar:
When I realized I was on top of a mountain, it was light at first, but when I opened my eyes the darkness was spreading making the sky different as if it were night.
The skies turned black with stars of various colors dotted across the sky and a silver moon in fragnts as the center of it all.
My body was covered in goo that strangely dissolved into spiritual energy seeping into my body.
"You already know who I am." (Nix)
"Yes, you are the Familiar of Zenos, the Night Spiritual Dragon." (I)
The one who was floating and looking at almost completely camouflaged with the night sky was Nix, one of the strongest entities in the Dungeon and Familiar of Zenos himself.
Her Dragon body is magnificent, looking at her is like seeing a creation of the night itself as if this sky around us was an extension of her, her eyes were locked on and her Aura around her as if trying to see beyond .
"You accepted to be a Divine Herald, I don't know if you understand what such a position represents, but you need to deserve to be worthy of such power." (Nix)
"A test?" (I)
"No, it's going to be an ordeal, because after today you may not be the sa anymore, will you still want to continue?" (Nix)
"The simple fact of receiving this opportunity to be here is an honor that I do not deserve, I will not disappoint the one who gave such an opportunity." (I)
"I am willing to undergo any training, test or ordeal regardless of the risk involved." (I)
"Your determination is comndable, so let's get started." (Nix)
"..." (I)
Her eyes shone and all the stars around her shone at the sa ti, the world around began to ripple like the surface of a lake when a stone falls, I seed to be that stone at that mont.
Suddenly everything disappeared except the starry sky which just beca different, the fragnted moon being the only constant thing besides , the stars were different in both colors and positions, Mrs. Nix had disappeared and even the mountain where I was supposed to be it disappeared.
What was around was just darkness, I was on the surface of an endless lake stepping into the water as if closing the ground and the starry sky above, then on the surface of the lake where the Fragnted Moon was being reflected, an image of appeared rising from the reflection of the Moon.
His completely human appearance and white armor made my blood start to boil just from seeing such a disgusting sight, but it was still .
When he opened his eyes I could see the smile on his face increase, an absolute confidence in himself, in his eyes the arrogance built by his Templar position and his Aura as bright as sunlight, all of this only infuriated even more.
"Are you the ordeal? Because if you are, then you are a gift to ." (I)
Without saying anything else, a sword was already in my hands, I could no longer hold back, with the sword I launched myself into an attack using all the strength of my body, but as soon as I hit the armor it was like hitting an unbreakable wall, the The sword had broken into pieces, leaving only the hilt in my hand bleeding from the impact of the blow.
My copy is still looking at like I'm an idiot, everything about him was disgusting, every part of him was exactly what I once was, an undeniable stain from my past.
"Still the sa old guy, trying to destroy everything he doesn't understand?" (?)

Pov Fiona's:
I don't know what exactly happened, when I opened my eyes I was lying on mine of a giant flower in the middle of a beautiful garden, endless trees were in all directions and a woman wearing leaves as lush clothes was walking out of the forest coming in my direction.
"I imagine you know who I am." (Sakura)
"Yes, you are the Familiar of Zenos, the Tree of War, lady Sakura." (I)
"War Tree? That's new to , who gave such an old-fashioned na? Was it Sapphire or that idiot Jade?" (Sakura)
"I couldn't say, I've only heard stories about you during morning training, many call you by that title." (I)
"Well, it doesn't matter, like many things, these titles are also empty in their aning, I never liked wars." (Sakura)
As she walked, the flowers around her beca brighter, I myself got out of the large flower I used as a bed and tried to kneel before her, but the flowers in the garden moved, holding my body, preventing from kneeling.
"There are no reasons to kneel to , I'm not your queen, I'm not a Goddess and I don't like formal things like that either." (Sakura)
She ca closer and placed her hand on my chin, her soft and delicate hands sohow made my heart beat faster as my face heated up.
"You don't need to fear or adore , nature just exists and I much prefer this type of instinctive reaction..." (Sakura)
She approaches , sliding her hand across my face and speaking in whispers close to my ear, I didn't think a woman would make feel like this, much less that soone like Zenos' Familiar would do this to one day.
"Ma'am, I don't think this is appropriate..." (I)
"You're very formal, but you're right, I'm not here to relax and neither are you." (Sakura)
She let go of my face and I realized that the world around had changed, the forest around seed more alive and the trees rise like mountains, the branches and leaves cover the skies letting just a few rays of light pass through giving a unique atmosphere to the surroundings.
"I'm here this ti to find out if you are worthy of the power you agreed to receive." (Sakura)
"I will." (I)
"In other words, you don't consider yourself worthy now?" (Sakura)
"What do you seek? What do you consider to be worthy? Why do you think Zenos chose you with so many stronger options available?" (Sakura)
"I... I don't know..." (I)
"After this ordeal everything will beco clearer, if you go through it." (Sakura)
The tree flowers and flower petals ca loose in the wind, forming a tornado around , blocking my vision.
"We'll see what you're looking for..." (Sakura)
