Silvermist left the mountain sometime later with Pearl and Momo. Alex remained behind, but only for a while longer to discuss a few things with Rosemist.
"I won't be returning until my next competition is over, which might take more than a decade," Alex told her.
"That's a short time. Come whenever you can. It's not like I can leave this place," Rosemist said.
Alex gave his farewell and left the mountain. Outside, he met up with his master and the rest, who were waiting for him.
"Are we ready to leave?" Silvermist asked.
"Let us return, Master."
They flew back toward Rosefall City, from where they could teleport to the Threeflower Continent, and then from there to the Trueflame Continent.
"Your friend is quite the enigma," Grimsight said on the way back. "I have never seen someone so… mysterious."
"Did your eye fail you back there, Senior?" Alex asked.
