Chapter 4-4

Avery
(OUTDATED, MUST REREAD EXCERPT AND REWRITE)

Days after the battle with Drayon, Avery and Nyxeris accept they cannot defeat Drayon alone. Nyxeris believes Somnium doesn't want to kill them and Avery calls her stupid for thinking that, then quickly apologizes. Avery is reluctant about accepting the Aera's help but there's no other options. Nyxeris doesn't forgive them either but they need their help.

The next scene opens up on a glorious sight of the Dojo. The air is rich with mana and the mystical skies and water flourish with Spirits as they stand on the beach of the place they grew up. Avery has an angry expression and his eyes dart around to notice how void of human life it is. Nyxeris wonders if they've stopped raising the Spirit Children. The siblings approach the Dojo and stop at its wooden porch. It is a huge building decorated with relics and surrounded by plant life. Working up the courage, Avery steps forth and knocks on the door.

Kenlow answers the door and is surprised to see them. He welcomes them in, and they begin to talk to him about Somnium. Kenlow reminisces and further develops Somnium's past through a story. He has so many regrets not just about Somnium, but about the children before him. Avery says he is not a child anymore. He will never forgive Kenlow, but he still asks for his help to stop Somnium. The scene ends with the rest of their discussion, and what Kenlow says in response, left ambiguous.
