"Please close your eyes," the Giant chief Deseli whispered, his voice soft as silk.
Richard was thrilled to his core, immediately complying with the instruction and obediently closing his eyes.
Everyone else widened their eyes, anticipating the birth of the first foreign Napoleon Giant in history.
"When demons from Poyi Road surge out of the blood sea...
The kind-hearted construct the shackles of justice...
Encasing this sinful body...
Evil is not innate...
It is simply goodness forgotten at the bottom of the heart...
Awaken...
The flower of the soul's gate..."
Chief Deseli of the Giants, with his eyes shut, mumbled strange phrases in a murmur, his hand as large as a plaque caressing Richard's head, looking very much like a mystic.
Andulan's elder watched the Giant chief from a distance, his gaze peculiar, like a worker who had his job taken away.
Chief Deseli's chant resonated three times in a row when suddenly, a sky-spanning rainbow light burst forth in the heavens.
