The loud beating of Daniel's heart resounded in his ears, and the feeling of a lump formed at the bottom of his throat. His vision narrowed over the carriage, whose movements appeared in his head like a memory that did not belong to him.
"Is everything okay, Outcast?" Asked a particularly old bishop, who was looking at him with confusion from the seat to his left.
Daniel did not look away from the carriage for even a moment, and the moment the bishop's words reached his ear, he mindlessly muttered, "Of course. Just some old memories.."
The door of the carriage was directed towards the side where the emperor and the envoy were sitting, and therefore, it was impossible for Daniel and Edmund to see Alesia. All they could see were a pair of pale and bare feet step over the carriage's steps, and onto a small cloud-like patch of spiritual essence which formed underneath just before she could touch the ground.
