Determination

"It's not your fault. What... what you did was right. You freed him from his never-ending torment."

Kenneth heard Aqua's words and realized that the water fairy was trying to comfort him. Even though Aqua could only hug his nose with her size, Kenneth still felt comfortable when he felt the fairy's touch.

"He will feel better after this. Trust me, Human."

Gaia also spoke as she finally continued her magic. The earth fairy let Kael's body slowly turn transparent before she glanced at Kenneth again with a small smile.

"He has something to tell you before he leaves, Kenneth."

Gaia guided Kenneth to touch the transparent body so that the prince could connect with Kael before he left. Kenneth touched Kael's hand while continuing to cry. But after he heard a familiar voice in his mind, the prince finally stopped crying like a child.

"Live freely from now on, Your Highness. Follow your heart. Then... thank you for freeing me from that hell."
