Chapter 20: Terror Beyond the Trees
Meanwhile...
Elizabeth has just arrived in a small town beside a gigantic forest that is teeming with life.
Ara: "How do humans live this close to a forest and not chop it to the ground?"
Elizabeth: "I don't know."
Ara: "Maybe humans aren't as cruel as I thought.
Elizabeth thinks about an event involving a man being brutally murdered to death being surrounded by flames.
Elizabeth: "(darkly) Humans are cruel beings."
She walks forward.
Ara: "(in head) She doesn't seem like the type to sound cruel. What happened when I said that?"
Elizabeth walks forward with the sense of a scorched scar lingering on her body as people begin to whisper.
Citizen 1: "So when do you think that unique Wyvern is going to show up?"
Elizabeth: "Huh?"
Citizen 2: "Any day now. The forests have literally become untouchable with that thing roaming around."
Ara: "I can't really pinpoint who this could be. We're all somewhat territorial."
Elizabeth looks towards the trees.
Elizabeth: "We have to get through these woods here anyways."
Ara: "(confused) Star?"
Elizabeth: "My name is Elizabeth."
She rotates herself so she's looking straight at them.
Elizabeth: "I'll save these people."
Ara: "Are you mad?! You may be one of the three, but you are inexperienced with Breaks and you're still learning how to use your powers to the fullest!"
Elizabeth: "I know you're trying to get me to delay the inevitable."
Elizabeth heads for a nearby inn.
Ara: "(in head) It's not that it's inevitable, but I know that this time we will regain the Eclipse."
The sun is still shining bright in the sky.
Elizabeth: "(in head) I won't let people suffer."
She sheds a single tear as she steps inside.
Elizabeth: "I won't let people seen what I've seen."
Ara: "What... did you see?"
Elizabeth: "The dark side of humanity."
