章 612: What can I say? We are all a tool to preserve this world

I hadn't thought about it much before, perhaps because I rarely met anything that reminded me of Valmeier's parents, but...if the deities went as far as sending Natha's soul to see me, they must have done something to make sure Valmeier's body was born with two high-quality essences.

And then, it occurred to me: what kind of order, mandate, oracle, whatever it was the Goddess conveyed to him?

"Oh, no," the Bishop shook his head. Huh, seemed like I was wrong. "The druid princess was found by us," he smiled at me in a mix of regret and shame. "The one who received the mandate to find your mother was the murdered High Priest."

"Ah..."

So, it was still by the deity's design that the two met. Now that I thought about it, the baby princess would be much older than the priest, right? The war was around eight decades ago, after all. She must have been picked up by someone at some point, otherwise, how could a baby survive running away from a war?
