Encounter

In the last seconds, Sheyan replied to Shadow in his mind.

"Have you ever seen the kind of lake that's completely isolated from other bodies of water? In the beginning, there might be lots of fish and shrimps in it, and it'll seem full of vitality, but stagnant water will always be dead water. The fish will die, the shrimps will rot, and the lake will become a decaying swamp. Finally, it'll dry up completely. Only unceasingly flowing and surging rivers are truly full of vitality, giving birth to even stronger lives!... Goodbye!"

A light shimmered in Shadow's deep eyes upon hearing Sheyan's words. Although the light died down almost immediately, Sheyan's words were deeply engraved in Shadow's mind like the marks left by a blade!
