Ophelia

Yeah, I was.

It is still the middle of the night-ish.

That's when you really thought that you'd have this opportunity.

You set out, you got it.

But there's still that air of, man, this is something that's dogged our bounty for months now.

and finally you thought it with the dawn but now finally uh very possibly the actual tools at your disposal to bring this to an end you can't help but take a moment to feel good about the direction you're heading in uh to celebrate and you do so um pike you head back to your room yeah

You sit down, legs crossed.

You settle in to once more get back in this routine, something you haven't done in a long time.

that last brought you the visions of discord.

Seeking to once more commune.

because of what you've been through, everything you've shared with Rhett, everything that you've been through up to this point, even the question hanging behind you of entering the vault, the Disciple of the Lightbringer, you once more, confused and seeking answer, you reach out to Lara.

You experience all of these feelings as you once more focus your soul.

You look both inward and outward and you find what you're looking for.

You again feel that presence at your right hand from your gauntlet in your gem.

You feel the light of the phoenix.

Then you see it.

You open your eyes and you stare out into space and you see a glint of radiant light amidst the ether.

You witness a sight you haven't seen since your youth.

You witness a sight you thought you'd never see again.

Leaving a streak that looks like the most beautiful neon vapor trail you've ever seen is a solar phoenix flying amongst the stars.
