Shooting Star

[Ashclout]

It is how it is.

Am I ready to move to the next life?
Hmm! That's a silly question!
I won't even leave, heheh!

I made a promise to mama and papa!
And to Katrana, Kaine, Jeshan and Patchy!
Yes, I'll become suuuper powerful and cool!

Like.. like...
People will be intimidated by me.
And like-- and like--

There's still much for me to do!
Osrona to stomp on!
Aesirheim to beat!

N-no.. I... I...
I can't die just yet...
No.. I.. I can't stay here... I...




Whoever you are...
I won't let you keep me..
I'm.. I'm fighting to get out..

YOU HEAR ME?!

[Ashclout]

It's been a while, old friend.
Heheh... I hope you aren't too upset for last time.
I'm sorry I left you alone, it's just I wasn't quite ready to leave.
There was a lot I wanted to prove then, a lot I wanted to accomplish...

I hope you understand.

Hey, look....
I have wings now.
Just like yourself, mhm!
A lot happened since my last visit...

But it's too much to tell in one settin'!

If I regret my life?

No, absolutely not. I have no regrets.

I.. held my promise. I lived how I pleased.

Took what I wanted and never looked back!

Even if I collected so many injuries, I was happy!

I did wild things.

Had unreasonable but fun adventures.

Put my life on the line against terrifying foes.

Beaten some, lost to some... well mostly lost but it never deterred my determination.

Apparently, I even defeated an opponent not even my mother could. Heh!

I lived my life to its fullest.

And I have no regrets. Never!

Grow old? Have kids? A family?

Pffffffftttt... I leave that for the others!

No, I was one who strove towards the heavens and ultimately crashed down to earth.

I hope I will be remembered.

Loved? Cherished? I think not.

But I hope I.. at least.. inspired some.

I want my people to live an excitin' life.

I want them to burn through life just like I did, to take a bite at life and live it to its fullest.

No, I won't be the one to lead Galamea.

I won't see it thrive and dominate over Esshar, it's true.

But I trust my brother to do so in my stead. I'm sure he can do it.

I've always loathed him for his lack of backbone. But this time, he made a choice.

He took my life to accomplish our dream.

This spineless...

Careless and stupid brother!

I hope his kids will be as terrible as me and give him grey hair!

But I hope he doesn't feel too sad over my death. He doesn't understand but, it was necessary.

I was always ready to die, I made sure he knew that but I never told how much I loved him.

Even if I didn't agree with him.

Even if I always disliked his neutrality.

Even if we weren't really of the same blood.

He was my beloved brother.

And the more I think of it, there was no better way for me to leave... than to die in his arms.

If I'm ready to move on?

Of course not, you hooded idiot!

I'm waitin' for him here, with you.

I need to know if he's succeeded or not.

Oh, and I want our rematch. I'll beat this stinky idiot. The strongest Dayndros? My ass, that's me!

"Make Galamea grand. I'll be waiting for you, big bro."
