cobalt sky often revealing a resplendent
rainbow the air infused with the
fragrance of the Earth As Leaves
unfurled after being nourished with her
favorite berries glistening with
droplets of water appearing so fresh and
inviting that she could not resist
taking a bite only to be gently pulled
back by Ching Ching's laughter but now
the forest resembled a decrepit Elder
exuding a scent of Decay it was she who
had wrought this destruction Nan noan
closed her eyes feeling a Pang of
bitterness in her heart and turned to
gonion softly asking do you hate me why
would I hate you I have no right to
Harbor such feelings jonon replied with
an indifferent expression each action
and choice dictated by Fate From nanan's
perspective her confinement for
thousands of years rendered her desire
for escape understandable even if it
meant employing Desperate Measures yet
if Nan Juan were to be pitted what of
the innocent elves who had suffered
nanan had destroyed their Homeland
leading to the deaths of countless elves
the survivors had lost family and
friends were these elves not deserving
of pity this burden of guilt was
naturally one that Nan noan as the
instigator must bear eye in this world
there exists no clear distinction
between right and wrong one merely
oscillates Between Shades of Gray the
question of right or wrong has become
irrelevant since nanan has made her
choices she must fa the consequences
guon tion was merely an observer a
passer by her judgment held no
significance suddenly the chill around
her neck dissipated Janan gently turned
her face to find nanan's Wings slowly
flapping as she lifted off her shoulder
Nan noan hovered in midair her face
shrouded in a thin Mist I believe what
you just said was profound even if one
does not like something one must not
detest it asked the guardian Spirit of
the enchanted Woodland I must shoulder
the responsibility of protection yet I
succumbed to loneliness descending Into
Darkness driven by hatred it was
chingching who overestimated me and I
who betrayed the entire Elven race in
the eyes of the elves she was a
manifestation of the nature God capable
of safeguarding the enchanted Woodland
from harm and deterring other races from
Invasion revered by all a chingching
eyes she was the innocent and
kind-hearted nature Spirit a worthy
custodian of great responsibility yet
she had been bet trayed that trust
grievously wounding the mother that had
birthed her and attracting enemies from
the abyss she had aired Nan noan
gradually ascended gonon please convey
to Eileen to safeguard the enchanted
Woodland and remain Vigilant against the
Underworld the entire Divine continent
is on the brink of a life and death
crisis we must proceed with utmost
caution guon tion cradling the Elven
infant nodded solemnly at her words
previously Aisha had also discre warned
her to be wary of the underworld could
these NPC's admonitions be a hidden
thread of this Quest did it imply that
should the underworld truly seek to
destroy the entire continent they as
players would meet the same fate she
watched as Nan Juan began to emanate a
green glow laboriously soaring upwards
until she was level with the Treetops
Nan noan formed intricate gestures with
her hands and as she did so the colors
surrounding her continuously shifted she
was the first elfborn of the Enchanted
Woodland the favored child of the nature
God wielding the elements and mastering
five types of nature magic metal wood
water fire and Earth corresponding to
Gold green blue red and yellow these
five colors swirled around her
enveloping her in a vibrant Spectrum the
guardian spirit in Wan Juan fully aware
of her Grievous sins thus sought
forgiveness from the nature God nanan's
solemn voice seemed to resonate
