"Yaaaawn..." Ganesha murmured, standing at the entrance to the frozen, crystal cave that was the magical space of the lighthouse's uppermost floor.
"... A yawn, at a time like this?" Gawain said, his eyes narrowed at Ganesha.
"What is there to do, then~ when we are told to wait here? More to the point, where is Ria and what is she doing?" Ganesha replied, pouting her lips and taking out a crystal orb.
Though Ganesha stared intently at the crystal orb, there was no reply from Ria, who did not seem dead but merely could not understand what she was doing.
"... But then again," Ganesha continued, looking at those around her.
The advance, which had started with around three hundred people—including Maho of the Principality, the leader of the Scarletborn, loyal knights, and Imperial Mages—now had fewer than ten people remaining, with an even representation of all races and origins.
"Isn't it interesting? There are so many different races and peoples gathered here.”
From among them, Ganesha looked at the Great Elder of the Scarletborn, Elesol, who remained in her robe.
— When facing a great villain, race matters not. Even now, beyond this lighthouse, many Scarletborn fight on Her Majesty's behalf.

On the other side of the lighthouse, nothing could be seen, and merely staring at it was enough to make their head feel disoriented.
