Lumine curiously reached out to touch the feather. The moment she touched it, a certain thought appeared in her mind.
Lumine seemed to perceive Kapatcir's thoughts. As the thoughts entered Lumine's mind, Kapatcir's feather reacted, flying towards the highest peak in the center.
"Hey, are you alright, Lumine?"
Paimon's voice brought Lumine back to her senses. Seeing Lumine return to her usual self, Paimon breathed a sigh of relief.
"You scared me! You just froze up, not moving at all. What happened?"
"...I think I fell into Kapatcir's memories."
"Kapatcir's memories? Is it because of Lumine's special constitution that you can see his past memories through the feathers from his body?"
If that's the case, then the next step is to go to places where feathers might appear. After touching those feathers, we might learn more.
The clues are also very clear. As long as we go to the places A-Liu frequently visited, or places the Thunder Manifestation avoided, and use the power of the feathers there, we should be able to find Kapatcir's hidden feathers.
"Let's go together, A-Liu. These feathers should be the key to ending the cycle. Who knows... it might even allow you to fulfill your promise with Kapatcir."
A-Liu and Kapatcir had promised for him to sing for him. This promise was delayed by a thousand years, and this cycle had also lasted for a thousand years. Now it was time to fulfill it.
"Fulfill the promise with Kapatcir... Yes, I understand."
A-Liu nodded vigorously. He also wanted to fulfill his promise with Kapatcir, to appease Kapatcir's anger, and to let him rest properly.
"Big sister..." A-Liu, who was following behind, suddenly said, "I'm sorry. When you destroyed the perch before, I blamed you. I didn't realize your good intentions. I'm truly sorry."
"You... never mind. Since you know, then just follow us obediently from now on. Let this fog that has lasted for who knows how many years, and the tragedy of constantly repeating history, come to an end, understand?"
Durandal had originally wanted to retort, but thinking that he had been stuck here in countless cycles, she really couldn't be too harsh on him.
Never mind, during this final period, she would be a little gentler with him. He... needed to be treated gently so much.
"Yes, I understand."
There were a total of three locations. Lumine gained two memories, and also the experience of A-Liu meeting Kapatcir.
Other than these three locations, there were no other places. The only possible place was Kanna Kapatikir, where they only encountered an altar-like structure. After investigating, the Thunder Manifestation, which Lumine had seen at Amakumo Peak, appeared.
During the battle with the Thunder Manifestation, it even spoke human words, saying "A-Liu's song," from which it could be inferred that it was likely formed from a part of Kapatcir.
The Thunder Manifestation encountered at Seirai Island was formed from Kapatcir's anger. Then the Thunder Manifestation formed here was probably condensed from thousands of years of regret.
After repelling the Thunder Manifestation and using the power of the feathers, another feather appeared here. Upon touching this feather, this time a sound emerged—Kapatcir's voice.
"Since you allowed the unique song to turn into blood and flow into this land in vain."
"Then, until I, Kanna Kapatikir, hear that person, that A-Liu's song again, this land will suffer eternal calamity."
This was the voice Durandal heard when she first arrived at Tsurumi Island and explored its Ley Lines.
These words also confirmed that Durandal had not lied; what caused all this was not the festival not proceeding smoothly, but A-Liu's death.
But... Kapatcir said that the way to stop this calamity was for him to hear A-Liu's song again.
But Kapatcir had already been eliminated by Raiden Ei on Seirai Island, so even singing here would be useless. But... if he went to Seirai Island to sing, would it work?
Don't forget, A-Liu could only appear here due to the Ley Line anomaly; he would disappear once he left Tsurumi Island.
Under these circumstances, how could they take him out of Tsurumi Island, let him go to Seirai Island, and fulfill his promise with Kapatcir?
Lumine pondered for a moment, and her eyes lit up.
"I have a way!"
