[I can hear you. And yes, it's me.]
Her voice was now just like Rael remembered, and thankfully, judging by how clearly she spoke, nothing had happened to her.
On the contrary, she actually seemed especially lively.
Was she lazing off?
[I can still read your mind, you know? And no, I'm not lazing off. I'm currently in the process of trying to break into the Far Lands, but the process is proving to be a little trickier than I had expected,] Gaia said.
After a brief pause, she added:
[But I will have your last fragment soon. Don't worry.]
Rael shook his head and let out a sigh.
Come back home. I'll get it soon. Also, the Divine Realm has begun their attack.
[They... What? Already?]
Rael could feel Gaia's anger through their connection.
[I had predicted they'd only start their attack in a few years at the earliest. What did they do?]
Heh.
