- Frey Starlight's Pov -
"Welcome to Lady Semiramis Library."
Silence lingered for a few moments.
I was still taking in my surroundings—the towering bookshelves, the spiral-like structure of the place—and then my gaze returned to the girl seated in the wheelchair.
Semiramis Library… Was this the Institution's library?
After another brief moment of contemplation, my attention shifted back to the girl who had just greeted me.
"Ah… Thank you."
"Um… forgive my question, but who are you?"
I hesitated slightly at her question. She didn't seem to recognize me.
"Don't misunderstand," she continued. "I identify people by their auras… but I've never sensed yours before."
I could have lied to her. But I chose not to.
"My name is Frey Starlight. I'm here with the temple's delegation."
The moment my name left my lips, her expression shifted slightly.
She turned to the little girl nestled in her lap, a soft smile gracing her face.
