Promise Me On This Child’s Name

"Don't you want to go see her in the higher realms?..." 

The morning after Leonardo's discussed his future plans with Aria, she looked at the sleeping child in his arms before asking gently. 

Leonardo shook his head, "If I'm not mistaken, the realm king already has my aura locked within his perception. The moment I leave the middle realms and enter the higher realms, they will act against me. Hence, the best course of action is to have you escort everyone else directly to House Hestia, while I will ascend on my own."
