The world itself is screaming as the gravity bomb warps reality around itself, but it hasn’t even expanded yet. I ignore everything happening above me, since I can’t do anything about it anyway. Either the phoenix of light will overcome the spell, or it won’t.

I mean, I certainly hope I’m not responsible for the death of the guardian beast of the golden city. I get the feeling a few people might get a little mad about that. Not to mention, he seems like a pretty good chap. For a bird.

I mean, he almost came out and told me that he would save my sibling if he could, though not in as many words. However, he can’t let me through, which means he’s an obstacle to saving my sister. Which means he has to be removed.

I put the fate of the phoenix out of my mind and send it inwards. That steady trickle of Will continues to pour in from the captive, still the same as before. It’s a confusing jumble of pain and fear, still growing weaker and weaker, though slowly. So slowly. As if her Will itself were being sapped away, piece by piece.

What sort of insane atrocity is being committed down there?! Do they really think they can get away with it!?
