_Transcendent

A recurring dream from a fateful night haunts Varian. 

With a past he couldn't forgive himself for and a future he abandoned, his life in the present is in tatters.

But when you're alive, there's hope. 

The hope comes one day in an unexpected form. 

The painful past, the meaningless dream and the unexpected way forward force him to make a choice.

Stay broken and remain in the sorrow of the past he couldn't change. 

Or. 

Pick himself back together and try for one last time, to find the truth about his own dream and its connection to his unforgivable past, all in the hopes of forgiveness of himself, by himself.

"Huff! Huff! Huff!" Varian panted as he winced at the pain gnawing at his back. The auras merely grazed at him at the last moment but he couldn't feel anything on his back. The injury wasn't high but the enemy aura got in and was wrecking havoc in his body.

"I-I'll need a few seconds to pull myself together," He distanced himself from Maria and started using the slivers to expel the foreign aura.

"We can do anything, but we must not attract the attention of the elves again. They're on look out for us, okay?" Maria looked into his eyes and asked in an almost pleading tone.

"Alright, as long as we don't do anything stup—"

The mountain they were hiding in exploded and two rank 6 silhouttes attacked Maria in an instant.

Maria crashed through dozens of mountains before getting back onto her feet. She clutched her abdomen and spat out some blood before looking up at the two figures walking towards with her cold fury.
