An Extra’s POV

After the Capital fell; first at the hands of the Dragons, then to the might of an unstoppable beast, the denizens fell into despair.

Humanity was reminded of its place—they were nothing but weak meat waiting to be harvested.

The destruction of the largest city in the Alliance caused many to lose hope. The failing economy was the least of their worries, as security and stability became what everyone desired.

Those who had some means desired to move South, while the impoverished majority had nowhere else to go… but they were bound to try anyway.

In this cesspool of horrors and uncertainty, a beacon of hope was necessary.

Which was why the Alliance finally made their move and announced the arrival of the Otherworlders.

They revealed how the Otherworlders were the ones who stopped the Dragons, and also that the strongest of them all had defeated the Divine Beast.

That public announcement, with the remnant Otherworlders standing on stage in front of the Capital's denizens, shook the populace.

It was able to rekindle the dying flames of hope that humanity had in their survival.

All hope… was not yet lost.

********

In a blank, vast room, a girl lay on a bed.

She was covered in a thick blanket, and the bed she was in seemed to swallow her while with its sheer size.

What seemed to be a veil of thin-layered fabric covered her from all sides, all dangling from the ceiling of her bed.

Sparkles of energy danced around her, like miniature stars, and her complete white attire made her almost seem like a lucky bride on her wedding day.

She even had a ring on her finger, displayed thanks to her posture; with both hands on her stomach as she lay peacefully.

This girl was no bride, though, neither was she lucky.

Her long brown hair was scattered all over the bed, and her eyes were tightly shut due to her slumber. With how she barely moved her body, though, one would think she was dead.

But no.

She was very much alive; the fact that she was still breathing, albeit very slowly, proved it.

Alicia White had only fallen into an eternal slumber.
