"Well then, I will let you be. May fortune shower upon you and may fate guide your way." - Fortuna

Clicking her fingers together, I feel my body lunge back upward, back into my real body where my forehead lightly taps. Glancing toward my eyes, Melody matches my gaze, and both of us feel a slight connection. A feeling so surreal, I don\'t even know how to describe it, as I see her look down slightly, while my eyes were drawn to her waist. Glowing through her clothes is the same wheel that was resonating on my chest.

"The goddess has blessed us in the same way, it seems." - Melody

"Did you also meet her?" - Rebecca

"The same way you did. However, I think both of us have slightly different powers granted by her. My visions have been enhanced, and I knew you would approach me when I arrived at the tower. However, no matter how much I try to think of Ian. I can\'t seem to see anything about him. I thought with my connection to the goddess I would be of more help, but it seems the opposite." - Melody

"You shouldn\'t put yourself down. There isn\'t much we can really do other than to try our best to search for him…" - Rebecca

"Becca, I would like to ask you something. How much do you love Ian?" - Melody

"What? Of course, I love him a lot. What kind of question is that?" - Rebecca

"Well, I love him just as much. I knew I haven\'t been able to connect with him as much as I would have liked but now that I am stronger, my wish is to be able to stand next to him, no matter where he goes. I don\'t know if you are the same or not, but regardless, I wanted to tell you this before anything else happens." - Melody

"I already know you were in love with Ian, however at the end of the day, it is his decision to love whom, but why do you want to say that now? Something is about to happen, isn\'t it? You wouldn\'t mention your enhanced vision and something like this without reason." - Rebecca

"I don\'t know if it is something soon but, yes. I did see something. It involves both of us, but I can\'t tell when it will happen. Both of us are in a location where we are over a deep dark hole, one that looks like it goes on forever. Grasping each other\'s hand on top of a rope bridge and on either side of the bridge there is someone, yelling, screaming. I can\'t see who it is, and I can\'t hear anything, but it looks like it is directed at one of us.

The vision ends and restarts at a different location. With us hanging from the rope bridge. I can\'t tell who is on the top or on the bottom, but then I see Ian, standing not too far away. He is yelling at what I assume is us, and desperately looking to his sides but all I see is darkness. As if there are black walls barricading him and the surroundings, but there is still the dark empty hole below, gazing back at us." - Melody

"What a spine-chilling vision… But how accurate is it? I remember before that the visions were as accurate." - Rebecca

"So far everything that I have seen has been true like I am following this thread of fate. Fortuna did say that sometimes fate will guide us and our decisions are just part of that process. I\'m starting to believe that is what it is." - Melody

Placing a hand on her head, I bring Melody close to me, letting her rest her head on my chest. Brushing her hair softly, I let out a soft sigh.

"Look Melody, I don\'t hate you. I don\'t think it is wrong that you like Ian, it is totally understandable, he is an amazing guy. With us both connected to the Goddess herself, we shouldn\'t be at each other\'s throats. No matter what happens in the vision of yours, I will do my best to save you and I hope you will do the same. At the end of the day, if either of us dies, it will bring a lot of sadness to Ian and I doubt you want that either." - Rebecca

Hugging me back, Melody doesn\'t reply, and we stay still for a few moments before she lets go, signally for me to let go as well. Standing up and brushing the dirt off her clothing, she holds out her hand waiting for me to grab on. Smiling at her, I reach out to grab it as she helps me up.

"I\'ll do my best…" - Melody

"As will I." - Rebecca

"BECCA!" - Gibing

Our bonding moment is suddenly interrupted but Gibing who was shouting from the bottom of the tower. Looking at each other, we quickly turn toward him, leaning over the edge with confused faces.

"What\'s wrong, Gibing?" - Rebecca

"Did something happen?" - Melody

"Oh, good both of you are here. Gewari just came back, and we discovered something that might lead to finding Ian." - Gibing

"REALLY!" - Rebecca, Melody

"Yea, come down. Gewari is at the Krepost main building and Howard is trying to find Kingston, but we can\'t seem to spot him. The last time we saw him was near the building that Celine was in, but he isn\'t there at the moment. Have either of you seen him?" - Gibing

"No, we split up not too long ago. He shouldn\'t be too far, maybe spread out? He might just be in some corner resting up. Melody and I will start heading toward Gewari in the meantime." - Rebecca

"Alright. Yor should be there already as well, so you can probably discuss a course of action after Gewari explains everything that she found." - Gibing

"On it, we will head over now." - Melody

Following Melody\'s lead, we start to head over to the Krepost main building, while Gibing continues his search for Kingston. Strange though, I could have sworn he wouldn\'t be too far from Celine especially since he has feelings for her. He wouldn\'t just leave her in her current state of mind. Regardless, the thought only passes through my mind as we eventually reach the main building to see Gewari, Nina, Howard, Yor, and Frank

"Becca, Melody, I\'m glad you could make it." - Gewari

"What\'s the general gist of the situation?" - Rebecca

"Well, I haven\'t explained much to everyone yet since we were waiting for Gibing and Kingston, but right now it doesn\'t look like they are here, so I\'ll say one thing. Selino, might be holding onto Ian. There is a spider nest in the forest." - Gewari

"God dammit, and we still have the portal thing inside the Abyss to take care of." - Rebecca

"That\'s right. Kingston told us that information not too long ago. Unfortunately, helping Ian takes priority, but we have no idea what is the situation inside the spider lair." - Yor

"Well Gewari, hit us with the information you know, I see Gibing coming back right now." - Rebecca
