Ashes and Kingdoms

――

Everyone who wasn't Dragon Hou got a little scared. Elecia and Finn also come to a surprise with their expressions. I had the feeling that my consciousness was somewhat in 'that side' when I came into contact with the spirit of the dragon, but I had just never interrupted the heavens themselves.

One breath down, Finn understood Utier's intentions through Lena.

"I mean... just consciousness,"

Just in case, put it in your mouth and confirm. Utier nodded lightly. Blue fog from the side accompanies the usual calm attitude.

"My partner is dark, so even in the face of that, there's some deception. Hide in the darkness and you will not be suddenly taken and eaten."

"I'll bring the man's consciousness back to the past," Utier continued. "It is impossible for a boulder to wipe away what is already deeply linked to hunger itself. If you change the memory of the past events that the man's remaining self possesses and the emotions that accompany it... eventually, the man should be just one of the victims"

…………

Finn was stunned and kept his head busy trying to chew on what he meant by being asked. I can't believe that's possible until now - from my common sense as a human being. But.

Unconsciously turns a blind eye and sees Farnayne. Obviously the age doesn't match, yet I guess it does feel like that girl because Utier worked her time out.

"It's Phineas, Elecia, and then it's your job to create and change memories."

Utier accidentally told me, and the two of them circled their eyes.

"How..."

Elesia suddenly tried to say, but swallowed the words, touched by Genshas' consciousness. Finn's heart also receives Lena's voice.

It's okay. It's the same thing I've done before.

It's the same thing in principle that has shed light on people's spirits, he said.

Even if we cannot change the very events that Marquis Senato experienced, we can manipulate a little of the emotions he had at that time. Instead of increasing resentment, hatred and anger, instead of causing despair. Let me plug a little light in there. One by one, about all the events that have marked a turning point.

That sounds like a tough one. But we have to.

Yeah, we're not the only ones.

The warmth of Lena wrapped my whole body fluttering. Finn nods, and in a sign of understanding and acceptance, salutes Utier and Blue Mist.

When Utia saw that the two young dragon marquises were convinced, she turned to Varys for the first time, "Then".

"Emperor, prepare a ship that will send people to the sea in case we fail. Rufus, be prepared to move people who have already taken refuge in the Great Forest further."

There was no one to differ in the command which was given lightly.

Varys just awed and bowed his head silently. with the determination to entrust the fate of Diatius.

Utier unexpectedly retained Varys and Rufus, who also tried to leave immediately.

I don't have to hurry, I'm here because of this, so it's good to take a break and then take action. That being said, when she waved to Farnayne, a dwarf appeared soon from among the trees, carrying her meal and beginning to line up on the flat rock. Of course Farnayne is helping with that.

Finn didn't want to be treated like a guest, he stood up unexpectedly, said let's carry something, etc., and the dwarf woman laughed a lot.

"Farnayne, your 'brother Finn' is a funny guy."

"Brother Finn is sweet. Don't laugh so much."

Farnayne herself seems to laugh, but this one manages to enjoy it. Finn felt so relieved and sorry for the interaction between the two.

"Farnein," that's the first name I've called in years. "Looking good...... good"

"Thanks to all kinds of people"

Farnein answered calmly, placing a plate of fruit before walking over to Finn and Senato.

Correct posture, alter and bow.

"Brother Finn,... Dear Senato. Long time no see. You've been kind, I haven't forgotten. And now it's funny... thanks to you."

From the second half of the word, Farnein stared only at Senato. Oh, and Finn noticed it, and he looked at it for a while. I was wondering if I should take this place off, but I couldn't grasp the trigger.

Senato had also solidified the statue. When I decided to visit the Great Forest, I secretly remembered that little girl, but I didn't want to see her again in this way. It's been a long time since you've been a girl, remember me? You could have said that normally. All of a sudden I'm an older sister, and I can't even think about what's good for me, my head turning white.

Finn connected the conversation under the guise of a natural attitude in order to give such a help boat to Senato.

"I heard from Taz and Nix. Farnayne, good work."

Say, reach out and try to stroke your head with your usual habits. And for a moment, Farnayne was frightened. When Finn stopped her hand in the universe, she smiled with a somewhat nervous look and said it was okay.

Finn nodded back, in a cautious motion, placing his hand gently on Farnein's head.

"... that's great"

Pomp, and touch very lightly. Farnayne wept in her eyes, but tied her lips tight and made a grin to show. And as Finn tried to pull his hand, he took that hand himself and wrapped it around him with both hands. Make sure this hand is okay, safe. After doing so for a while, she looked up and now smiled naturally.

"Thank you, Brother Finn"

A grain of tears spills down on the outskirts of my voice. No longer concealed his emotions, Farnayne held his mouth with one hand and cried out in a pompous cry. But it was a tear of relief, not because of grief.

Now Senato reaches out in horror. He gently rubbed his thin shoulders swaying in tears. I felt like I shouldn't make any further contact, so I entrusted you with the length of my thoughts.

"Yes... but, uh, thank you, thank you... su"

Farnayne shrugged, thanking her many times. I would have stuck around and cried in the old days, instead of just doing it.

By the time it took her a while to settle down, Senato had also adapted to the situation somewhat.

"But I'm surprised. You were so small, you can't believe... you're taller than me?

Noticed halfway through the words, Senato took a step back like he had been beaten down. I guess I didn't want to compare heights in line. Finn scoffed and scoffed at the stake.

"A little, Your Highness is more expensive. Your Highness will still grow, so you won't have to worry about being overtaken."

Senato openly hoarse and returns to his original position. When Farnayne laughed, Senato looked a little disgusted.

"It's not funny. But if you're too sick and tired of being a kid, and they eat you up to your back, you don't have a position."

"No," Farnayne shook her head. "Master Senato is splendid. I just... I really wanted to see your face and talk to you when I saw you. Master Utier asked me not to."

I say, I lay my eyes down in embarrassment. He looks young when he's twisting his thigh sleeves around, but he's a trick he didn't do when he was an old farnein.

Finn really coughed up. I'm still a complete disturbance bug.

"I'm sorry, but let me just confirm one thing. Farnayne, I mean, you... only consciousness moved time ahead of body, didn't it?

It is obvious that the body also grew faster than usual, but Finn's eyes see a colour of spirit that does not match either. As expected, Farnayne nodded.

"Yeah. Master Utier's... Org's dragon can do that. Because that's all I needed to be able to talk to people normally. Still a little, I'm scared of guys. But I'm not a little kid right now, so that's a lot easier."

"... well. You're all right now."

I can stand firm on my own, there are people who can support me even if I seem to be able to. Right, Farnayne sneered and nodded to Finn, who asked verbally. The grin finally brought one load down from Finn's shoulder.

Finn breathed relieved and stroked Farnayne's head pounding again.

"Good. Then I'm relieved. I'd like to thank Master Utier."

I also found an excuse for how good it was, so Finn said so insignificantly and walked away from the two of them.

Dropping off Finn going to talk to each other, Senato turned into a complicated face.

"I wish I could grow up, too. Dragon Marquis will confuse you, the sorcerer will make you a suspicious ghost,... and you will not be completely up against him."

"Dear Senato..."

Now Farnayne blushes more in difficulty with the words to return. As she tried to distract herself from the story, at the same time she saw Finn at the end of Senato's gaze.

"Whew!"

As if someone had set it up, Finn stumbled onto the roots of the tree and hugely cling to it. Take a big few steps, take it, and hit Utier in jeopardy.

On the outskirts, he was helped by blue mist, and Finn turned bright red and frightened.

"... adults...?

"I think so."

Senato returns an unconfidential answer to Farnayne, who seeps through a hint of anxiety.

When they looked at each other from either side, they laughed at each other, fluttering and tickling.
