[Shion is off in a corner of the forest, crouched on the ground as he carefully builds a small pile of pebbles around a slightly larger stone onto which he has scratched a rough symbol and a few Greek letters that spell 'Sisyphus'. After a while he sits back and looks over his work before laying a long, metallic gold feather across the stones ] I am afraid this is all I can do for you at the moment, my friend. I will make sure your sacrifice is not in vain. Once it is over, I shall see that you receive a more fitting memorial in Sanctuary.
[Not that he's certain he'll even survive the coming battles, but that's something he has decided not to dwell on.]

Hello? Is there anybody here? ...Ms. Sault?

[Estelle is beginning to think coming here again was not a good idea after all; she looks around to get her bearings only to realize that there is no obvious way back.] Hm... Well, if I left by waking up the last time, maybe that will work again?

[She opens and closes her eyes a few times. Of course, nothing happens. Now, she is beginning to panic.]

Oh, no! Now what do I do? I-If I don't make it back soon, they'll worry about me.

[A few deep breaths.] Panicking won't do me any good. There must be a way out.

Perhaps if I keep walking, I'll come across somebody who can help me eventually. [With that, she nods, and begins walking determinedly in a direction at random.]
