Chapter 1578: Lost Shadow

Sunny remained silent for a while, still blind. His expression was somber, and there was an irritated twist to his lips. 

'When did I figure it out?'

He grimaced. 

"Just now, really."

Which was rather embarrassing. 

Sunny hesitated for a moment, then shrugged. 

"Well, can you blame me? Sure, I should have known much sooner. But there were so many things happening all at once… so, it took me some time to put the dots together."

He raised the Guiding Light and put it on his shoulder, still unable to see the radiance of the sacred staff. 

"I mean, it is rather obvious in hindsight. Cassie was sent into the body of Dusk of Fallen Grace. Jet and Effie were sent into the bodies of two River Nomads. Kai and Mordret were sent into the bodies of two Riverborn warriors in Twilight. But what about me and Nephis? Who were the people that we replaced? And what were they doing so far upstream, in the distant future, way further than even Weave?"
