ELDER-RAIN CORE

Memory 1.2: Glowing Ruins

「Come in here please. 」

A cozy fireplace in a massive dark mansion room. Oblivion walked quietly into the room, limping a bit as their left leg was a bit scratched up and bruised. They glanced at the human woman, sitting on a comfy chair next to the fireplace, a small table beside her with a large book on top alongside a glass of cranberry juice.

The woman's face is not visible. In fact, none of her is visible, all blurred out. 

「Thank you. Now, please tell me how you got this injury... 」

Oblivion sat on her lap, looking down a bit timid and afraid before speaking to her. The voice inaudible but the woman can clearly understand them.

「I see. Don't cry on me. I have something for you. 」

Oblivion with hopeful eyes noticed something when the woman grabbed an item out from a spatial inventory, the magic in a shape of a cube. The item itself is blurred out by black boxes, not fully sure what it is.

「There, much better right? 」

Oblivion hugged her and-

「Oblivion... Open your eyes. It's not over yet. There is still a whole world ahead of you. Grasp it and stay hopeful... 」

「It's time for you to continue. 」

「Awaken... 」

「The vessel eyes glowed brightly, their yellow eyes emitting a bright light in response to the darkness around them. They sat up with their hat still attached to their head, luckily. They don't seem to be injured, at least visually. Their mana has hit a low with 10% which isn't a good sign. Not only that, but they also don't seem to know where Pearl goes since, she is no longer on their shoulder. Unfortunate. 」

「It seemed it is not a [Game Over] for them just yet. 」

「They stood up and dust themselves off, glancing around and letting their eyes scan the area like a flashlight in a dark forest. 」

Oblivion: "..." A comment but unable to make audible.

「The vessel confused and a bit scared of the darkness, only relying on their flashlight eyes. It seemed there's a lot of rubbles below them and around then, there seemed to be an open area with huge stone doors behind them and an open passageway in front of them. 」

<> Interact <> Huge Stone Doors

「Huge stone doors with ancient markings, each door containing different symbols which the vessel could not understand. Nothing could explain it and there doesn't seem to be any imagery as well. Only text in another language. When touched, nothing happened, and the door is either closed or way too heavy to be moved as it is many times taller than the vessel. 」

「...Don't think about it. I can't translate it. 」

<> Interact <> Stone Rubbles

「Glancing up, you could see the glow at the layer above. However, down here, it's opposite. The rubble itself is huge, cracked bricks, too heavy to be picked up and they're also moist. The vessel felt a bit of water droplet from above, dripping on their head. 」
