" I'm talking about those who travels between worlds. Even you can understand the consequences of doing such a thing?"
He retorted.
~~~~~~~~~
Dante turned around and hauled Serenade onto his back despite his right arm refusing to move. " You can't give up now Serenade!"
The man exclaimed, slowly drudging forward. Dominic looked back, but refused to stop for a moment. ' How could someone..... How could he do such a thing?' He asked himself, looking around at the empty world.

"...My kind... if you're speaking of the Angelus from Carleon, then leave them out of it. Space travel has been nearly unheard of... Trust me, I know. There have only been about... three or four accounts of it, and they only traveled to Earth." Leira's eyes were fierce as she explained the situation. Of course she did not like being blamed.
~~~~~~
Serenade groaned, closing her eyes a little. "Don't worry... I'll be okay... Just... body mostly thrives on mana... just feel incredibly weak at the moment. Just need a nap..." She felt her body shutting down, which was trying to preserve the mana it had left.

" No, I mean drifters, gods, any of those how can travel from one world to the next."
He explained further.
~~~~
Time was irrelevant on Gyrarzi, what it felt they were walking for hours. Eventually Dominic and Dante came to the ruins of what looked like a cathedral. " Dom...."
Dante managed to cough out before collapsing in the sand. " Dammit!"
Dom cursed as found himself dragging both his companions to the ruins. He set both of his companions down inside. " Both of you are too weak to preform the rift closing, and I can't do it by myself. I guess this is..... Goodbye."
He choked out, wiping away a tear. " I'll give you both as much mana as I can spare. When you wake up, do your best to escape here, okay?"
He asked the unconscious duo as he transferred mana to them. The envoy of yggdrasil then stood up and continued to walk towards the rift.

"...Taini...? Irvine...? Hey kids..."
A ringing emitted in Serenade's head. She saw herself with her twins, who were barely toddlers. They were climbing all over each other, wrestling around, and Serenade just laughed at them. When it grew too rough, Serenade interfered, took the children by the scruffs of their necks, and tossed them into the shallow waters that lapped against the beach.
To her, she felt happiest at this point. Was she relieving her life? Was it that moment before death where you experience everything that has happened in your life?
No... she was just beginning.
~~~~~
"If you think they are form my world, think again," Leira retorted angrily.

" I wouldn't expect them to, but, like you they are not from ours."
The lord responded with a gentle grin.
~~~~~~~
Dominic fought off tears as he looked into the massive rift. All his life was alone. Since Yggdrasil had him running around constantly, he barely got to visit Sortori. Despite his friendly nature, he rarely made an attempt to keep in touch with people he met. They usually never had a chance to be alive till the next time he got to visit. Gods were never that friendly to him either due to his nature. Nor drifters. Then he met Anthony. Their friendship was a reluctant one at first, but they soon became good friends. Then one after another, he met Hunter, Jenes, Dante...... The quickly extended beyond what he thought was possible. He met so many people, so many friends, so quickly. Actual friends. His newest being Serenade. In time he was sure that he would have become great friends with Leira and Jaegar too. If he only could. " I'm so sorry, all of you."

"Then why are you... what is this all about? It seems like you're blaming us." Leira retorted.
~~~~~~
Serenade heaved for a moment. She found herself onto her bottom, cross-legged. "Dom... he just... he just ran off, just like that." She mentioned with a soft sigh. She did not know what to think or do. "Why are we losing everyone...?"

Dante stirred from his imposed slumber from exhaustion. " Serenade? Dominic? Ugh, where are we?"
~~~~~~~~
" Far from it, my dear. I just wanted to see if you understood. I suppose not...."
He said with a sigh. " I suppose you want to know where the disturbance is?"

"The rift's disturbance... I am not entirely sure. I was about to search, but you had us hauled over here for Yulia knows what," Leira replied, seething. "It's just another minute wasted."
~~~~~
"We're just... we're still here... Dom, however. He left us." Serenade's voice seemed void of any emotion, as if she had been shocked by what everyone was doing. "First Hunter, and now Dominic... Dante, are we all going to die this way?"

" He hauled us over here because he wanted to know if we understood that every action we make can have grievous consequences."
Jaegar finally peeped up, having not said anything for a long time. For the first time since they arrived, their host seemed generally pleased. " The one thing a mortal can teach a God is humility."
He responded.
~~~~~~~~~~~
" What? But the rift, it's still open."
Dante responded, scrabbling to get to a hole in the wall to see the massive rift still hanging in the air. Dominic was still no where to seen. " I..... I don't know."
He smiled painfully, as if listening to some sort of sick joke that only he could hear. " This is the first time I've been scared in a while, you know?"

Serenade grit her teeth. "Don't tell me... he... this was a fruitless endeavor..." She cursed as she faced Dante. "What... what should we even do? Should we attempt this?"
~~~~~
"If it simply for that reason, then yes, I understand. Every action has a reaction, whether terrible or not. We can only try and minimalize the damage," Leira pointed out.

" No, Dominic is too strong for that, even here! That means he isn't gone!"
Dante said to Serenade.
~~~~~~~~
" Finally."
He said, clapping his hands. The room around Leira and Jaegar melted away and formed into the terrain they saw in the reflect of the lords floor. " He you will find what you seek."
His voice echoed.

"What we seek," Leira partially echoed as she stepped forward. "This... here?"
~~~~~
"So... we should try and head in, huh?" Serenade asked as she stood onto her feet. She extended her hand to her friend, and smiled.

" We have to! We can't let Dominic die too!"
Dante said reassuringly, taking her hand and standing up.
~~~~~~~
" I would suppose so."
Jaegar answered, looking around at the empty, battered field.

"R-right. I refuse to let another friend die." Serenade felt a burst of renewed energy surface through her body. Letting go of Dante's hand, she sprinted toward the rift, ready to give it her all.
~~~~~
"So... wonder where to start. Should I just scan the area with a quick flight?" Leira asked.

Dante followed in pursuit.
~~~~~
" You're in the lead of this operation."
Jaegar smiled.

Leira sighed, her head lowered. "I get so sick and tired of being leader..." She groaned before taking off and sailing around. Somewhere beyond the horizon, she pointed. "See it!" She called out to Jaegar before flying down and grasping at him. "Right, let's... huh?"
Standing in front of them was a tall, familiar woman. "...I cannot permit you to go any further."
"Huh? Doria, what the hell? Ohh... don't pull this bullshit with me."
~~~~~
Serenade eventually caught up to the rift, causing her to gawk for a moment. Hesitating, she raised her hand to it and attempted to touch it. "...Okay, no turning back. Just... a deep breath."

Dominic turned around to see Serenade and Dante approaching the rift. " Dammit, they woke up too soon!"
He cursed, looking into the rift. Dominic leaped forward and into the rift.
~~~~~~
" Serenade, back away......"
Jaegar warned, ready to leap forward and summon his scythe at the slightest movement from Doria. Though it still haunted him, he wondered what he could do against a god?

Leira backed away, not too amused at being ordered around. She gazed at Doria, who stared back at the both of them. "You both dare defy me?" She asked. "I am sorry, but I am the guardian of this rift... I cannot allow you to destroy it."
~~~~~
"Dom!" Serenade cried out, thrilled that he was okay. However, the fact that he leaped through the rift did not thrill her as much. Without telling Dante, she took a leap of faith into the rift, wondering what was to become of her.

" Then why did you lead us here?"
Jaegar demanded.
~~~~~
Dominic could feel his whole body begin to be ripped apart by the rift. The experience of feeling and knowing everything at the same time was both strange and yet familiar to him. Then he heard Serenade's voice. " Dammit, girl! Why did you follow me!?"
He hissed to himself, being torn from his serenity. He could feel his power designating with every second. Dom had only on chance.
Meanwhile on the outside, Dante stood with disbelieve that he was left alone. Was he trapped forever in this cursed place? Who knows. He had to survive though. He had to.
Dominic summoned up all the energy he could, using it to blow Serenade back and out of the rift, before being disintegrated into nothingness.

Doria sighed deeply. "I have to eliminate you before you even consider destroying the other rifts." She explained as she unsheathed a glowing dagger.
Leira stepped back, though she was feeling antsy over the situation. She did not want Jaegar to be hurt, but...
~~~~~
"DOM!" Serenade screeched before she was blown back. Her hand was extended for a mere moment. The next thing she knew, she was on her back, moaning and groaning.
