"All I need is a second chance..."

"A second chance to make things right."

Watching the world in front of him crumble before his very eyes, Valyr felt immense regret.

He and his comrades made sure to prepare for every possible mishap, for every possible thing that could've gone wrong... yet in the end, their side still lost.

Feeling his consciousness slip away from him, the young man screamed out into the heavens, wishing at his dying moment to get a second chance. A second chance to make things right.

Thankfully, the heavens responded.

Sending him back into the world where everything began, Valyr was reborn as an NPC of Greater Beyond a year before the game went live.

Armed with all of the knowledge he'd gained from his past life, as well as the goal of not wanting the past to repeat itself, he was going to make sure they won the final battle this time, stopping at nothing to achieve it.

Though, before he could do that, he'd first have to pick up the path he ventured in the past.

At those words, Arcaelus went ahead and grabbed a forging hammer from the tool rack as he was about to begin forging.

Though, just as he was perusing through the items contained within the material cache, a question from Valyr broke his concentration.

"By forging items, you mean forging them from scratch, right?" asked the young man.

In response, Arcaelus stared at Valyr with a slightly odd expression for a bit before nodding.

"I'm pretty sure something like that should have been self-explanatory, but yes."

Valyr wryly smiled at that. "Just wanted to make sure I wasn't going against the spirit of the fight."

"Speaking of which, upgrading any items I've previously forged doesn't count either, right?"

"They do not." Arcaelus shook his head, only to remain silent as gears turned in his mind.

After a while, he spoke once more, his words bringing the young man a hint of delight.
