”As far as I know, both lands are still without leaders.” Noah said. ”To be honest with both of you, I think Halo has the most power right now.” Even as Evie gave them information on a new leader in Torchline, Noah held his position. ”Torchline is not a place that wants to wage war — there is enough trouble in their own streets and canals to occupy their leadership for a long time. Stormbreak’s dragoons are there only holding the city together, and with no commander I doubt they’re ready to strike on anyone.” All of this to say, that the world was at peace for now.

Hotaru suggested I act as a liaison between the gods and the people, and maybe even help them quest to enrich their lands to help them prosper.” He shifted a little bit again, and the discomfort was easy to see on his face. ”I don’t want to leave Halo, please hear that. But I also have a responsibility to follow what Vi has for me. If we focus on gathering resources, it is possible that we can use what we gather to help our own people as well as those within the Grounds.”
