"If I'm not close to the ocean, my heart..."
The Princess covered her chest with her hand, and Shard subconsciously thought of something but then realized that it was the flesh of "Desire" affecting him.
"My heart feels empty and uncomfortable, truly uncomfortable, as if my soul is bound by scorching chains. I try to stay close to the ocean, and this distance is the furthest I can bear. Though the urge is still there, I can feel this red ocean calling out to me, but a few hours are still bearable."
"What does that feel like?"
Shard asked again.
"I can feel that, deep in the ocean, something is calling me, calling me to merge with It."
She closed her eyes, took a deep breath:
"Even if I just close my eyes, I seem to arrive at that giant ancient underwater temple in my dreams, and see that..."
"Open your eyes!"
Shard suddenly raised his voice, Lecia looked at him puzzled.
"Don't look at that thing anymore, it's not something good."
