It was an early afternoon and Elena and Greil were both still running from the Atlas army. Both of whom were protecting what Elena had been gifted before they both left Vacuo. Y/N and Mist were both playing games with each other. Both were close by and in the eyesight of their parents. Night time was nearing and both Y/N and Mist had gotten exhausted. They fell asleep in an area close enough for the two adults to watch over them. Well, one of them was sleeping. Y/N slowly woke up to see his parents doing their nightly routine until his father accidentally touched the medallion.

Greil lost control of his sanity and started attacking everything. Y/N watched as his father became a ruthless killing machine. He hugged Mist and watched as the whole scene unfolded in front of him. Elena tried her best to take the medallion away from Greil. It took about half an hour until finally she got it out of his grasp, but at a price. In his unfit rage, Greil had impaled his wife as Y/N watched on. He immediately grasped her in his arms.

Elena put a hand on Greil's cheek as she softly said, "I know it's not your fault. I forgive you." She then took her last breathe and passed away in his  arms. Overcome with grief, Greil had decided to cut the tendons in his arm so he would not be able to wield a sword. He looked over and saw that Y/N was awake.

"Go to bed Y/N. You'll need it," Greil said before he went to comfort his son, "I'm sorry you had to witness this."

The next morning, Greil had decided to look for Sephiran. He did not want Y/N to permanently have the trauma of what transpired the night before. Greil also entrusted the medallion to Mist, who was as gentle hearted as her mother.

After a few days, Greil had found Sephiran in what appeared to be a shop in the marketplace. Well, it was abandoned before he cleaned it up and put up a few items for sale. Such as concoctions, a Seraph's Robe, and some weapons.

"Sephiran. I never expected you to open up a shop in the marketplace," Greil stated as he looked around the shop.

"Well I just wanted to settle down and lay low. The best way to do so would be to open up shop," Sephiran replied, "Anyways what can I do for you today Greil?"

"I need you to to seal Y/N's memories. You see there was a bit of a situation yesterday and I need your help outliving that trauma."

"Of course. May I ask what happened?"

"I'll tell you in private. For now, let's get on with this."

"Of course."

After that, Sephiran began to set up for this experience. Once he got ready he asked Y/N to sit down inside the designated area so he could begin the process. Y/N obliged and sat down. Greil then went outside to watch Mist. Looking at her reminded him a lot of Elena. Though, he stayed strong so that Mist wouldn't question what happened the night before. Just then, Sephiran walked out of the room and looked at Greil.

"The process is finished. Now Greil. Will you tell me about what transpired last night?"

"Of course. Mist go watch your brother. Your father needs to talk about this in private."

Mist nodded and ran inside the room to watch Y/N.

"Sephiran. I..... I grabbed hold of the medallion and murdered my wife."

A/N: The prologue of the book. So right now I'm sorry, but my story-telling has gone down in context. It was short, but that was needed. I needed to have this before I started the story, because it was such an important part of the story in Path of Radiance. Anyways, I hope you guys enjoyed and I will see you all in the next chapter. Adios!
