Even more so when we had to inform that we haven't discovered the means to return you all to your homes. From what I understand and have witnessed… many of you have the hearts you are describing.

[ So, she doesn't mind the seeming monologue in the slightest. Though it would serve to share the information with the rest of the Center, for now Sylvarie tucks it away in her memory carefully—the efforts to help the outworlders would always be ongoing within her.

Those efforts also included slowly embracing the theory of Crystallis, alongside other information that had been gathered... ]

I… I know many of you believe this world was born of the… ‘Calamity’ that inflicted the world of Crystallis. I don’t know the details, but if it somehow did originate from there, I hope Vaikuntha has even a fraction of its beauty.

[ Falling silent, the young woman closed her eyes and breathed out slowly. ]

Perhaps I should offer my gratitude as well, because then this world wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for your efforts as Heroes of Light.
