"The Sun?" Listening to Darren's tale, a hint of astonishment crossed Maka's face.
"Yes, it's a very large, self-luminous, and self-heating fireball... no, it should be called a plasma ball," Darren boasted, showing off the sparse knowledge in his mind.
The amazed gazes of the natives brought him a sense of superiority that was extremely strong.
The half-people present whispered among themselves, and Maka too remembered the term from what he had heard within his tribe.
It seemed that long ago, their world also had a sun, but Maka had never seen it. He only knew from bits and pieces of ancestral sayings that it possessed endless light and heat capable of illuminating the vast earth. Its radiance was a hundred thousand times stronger than the glow emitted by the "Incandescent Mushroom" forests!
Maka simply couldn't imagine what sort of force could fill the entire world with light!
Keep in mind, in this cold, dark foreign realm, light and heat were very precious resources.
