The System pulsed aggressively, alerting me to the intensity. “Echo,” I whispered. “What is that?” Her reply was riddled with riddles, as always. “Beneath the world lies what the world buried. She speaks to those who dare listen. But beware, Kiami Lynn… not all memories wish to serve.”

The black river rippled. Several bells chimed softly. Mason noticed. So did Claire. “Joy,” she whispered.

Cecilia hugged me and said comfortingly, "Alright. Let's not think about such depressing things anymore now that you're home. It's just a diamond necklace.

Then: "The city creates echoes." Nobody understood. Then Ava frowned. Immediately. Then: "What is an echo?" Seraphine pointed toward the figure. Then: "A memory." The battlefield fell silent. Then: "The kingdom remembers everyone who enters it." Pause. Then: "The powerful." Then: "The broken." Then: "The lost." The wind howled across the city. Then: "Sometimes those memories become real."
