An Extra’s POV

"Haaa…"

Esme sat in a meditative pose as she closed her eyes, completely immersed in her practice of absolute concentration.

Once again, she attempted to key into the connection that Elves shared with The Oracle, but felt absolutely nothing. She was getting increasingly frustrated—almost to the point where she began to think her identity as a Half Elf was the problem.

'But… Ater said I would be able to.'

Ater wouldn't make such an assertion without reason to back it up. That meant there had to be some way she would be able to connect to The Oracle.

'Is there really a point, though? Rey is already on his way to the Shrine, and he'll probably be able to connect to her without my help…' Once again, she was the only one who had no real use among the members of the team.

Even Emil had played a more revelant role than her—and she was inside Rey most of the time!

"I don't know anymore." She opened her eyes and gave a frustrated sigh, slowly rising from her position on the cushiony ground.

Her room was a simple space that had a bed, sparse furniture, and nothing else. The entire lodging was made practically overnight, and while her dwelling was just adjascent to Rey's, the difference in quality between both was like heaven and earth.

'It's clear that the Elves are still hostile towards me, even if they revere Rey.' She sighed.

Esme knew she could always report the matter to Rey, and he would instantly take her side, but she really didn't want to burden him with more things. He already had more than enough worries on his shoulders, and bothering him about her problems would be insensitive of her.

'Their actions are harmless at most…' She smiled, though not completely believing the thoughts she just rendered to herself.

After standing in the room for a few seconds, she realized there was nothing else for her to do.
