[Aether easily allows his own memories to show in his mind. He can see the faces of his friends celebrating the Lantern Rite. He can see a lone figure watching from the distance, protecting the city when needed. He can see a boy performing an impressive dance before a vast audience. He can see an elderly lady preparing some tea as her students gather around her.]

A clear sound that is yet another proof that the panic is slowly going away.] It was the colour of warm light - orange and yellow. The decorations were really simple as well... and then the wish...

[He pauses, smiling to himself, but somehow more melancholic than before. Eventually he shakes his head and gives a grin to Rafayel.]
