"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.

"The Three Houses?" asked Valyr in return, briefly wondering to himself whether the name Dalton mentioned was an organization of some sort.

Though, after thinking about it for a bit more, he felt that such a name befitted something else entirely. "Are you perhaps talking about the nobles of the city?"

"That would be correct." The old man nodded, glad that Valyr easily caught on. "For context, the Three Houses are considered the ruling class of Astella City, with any of the three noble clans having a major part in the city's various industries."

"Who are the Three Houses, exactly?" asked the young man, only to follow it up with another question. "And how did you find out that they wanted to recruit me?"

Hearing those questions, Dalton decided to answer back with a question of his own. "Remember the attendant that helped you out with the registration process?"
