[warlord.]

Mytho pulled his knees up to his chin and buried his face in his knees. "..."

"... The truth."

[Balsam]

Teto almost cried. "We FAILED. We failed...."

".... Yeah." Luka got up.

[warlord.]

Mytho was eerily silent.

"I feel like he deserves to know."

Len soon ran downstairs, holding a box. He looked extremely happy.

[Balsam]

Teto went over to Mytho. She hugged him.

Luka nodded. "He does...." She looked at Len. "A-ah, hello...."

[warlord.]

Mytho hugged her.

Gakupo looked at him.

"Hi Luka! Where's Rinny?"

[Balsam]

Teto buried her face into his shoulder and silently cried.

"Len, Rin is.... .She's.... .... Ren is keeping her over in the elven kingdom. She and Keki were taken away while the rest of us were herded back here. With no way to go back after them."

[warlord.]

Mytho rubbed her back.

Gakupo sighed again.

"I-I..." Len stared at the box. "B-but..."

[Balsam]

"We failed... I failed....."

Luka folded her arms. "I'm so sorry.... There's absolutely nothing we can do."

[warlord.]

"There was nothing we could do, hon..."

"We're sorry."

"Nothing..." Len sat in a corner and stared at the box. "..."

[Balsam]

"... Maybe there was."

"Now hold on! Never say nothing!"

Luka looked up as Illuminata appeared. She fell over. "How are you....?"

"Margaret, too. We both hid when the guards came." Illuminata said. She put her hands on her hips. "Now then! Who's to say there is nothing to be done? This door may be closed.... But there are other ways inside the kingdom."
