The other Goddess remained unmoved, her expression betraying not even a hint of amusement or intrigue. Her eyes, pools of ancient wisdom, regarded the spectacle before her with a detached indifference that bordered on disdain.

[My Crown Prince, in the vast expanse of time, I have witnessed countless souls traverse the ethereal passage between realms. Yet, among the multitude, only a precious few have resonated with the brilliance that emanates from your very being.
