Sora and elythara set sail to the nearby civilization called "Nirixian Republic". This journey wasn't short but it was a journey which had every single thing in it. Sora told elythara that they should go to the Kingdom of Elyria so that they can find shelter and stay there after they know what is the past from the people of nirixia... But elythara had other plans she said that they should go to the kingdom of Eldardoria because she wanted to meet her kind of people she also said that she was getting frustrated listening to sora who was always giving her orders trying to prove his dominance. This was it... The fear sora and elythara dreaded way before they satarted this long and painful journey. After four days of constant arguments they reached Nirixian Republic. They docked their boat but none spoke up to eachother.
They went to the people of Nirixia and politely inquired about the unkown past of Aethoria.. they said the should see the Grand Magician if they want to know about that. So they did, they asked people where his place was. They told them to climb the mountain and they'll see a large tower made of quartz... That's where the Grand Magician is. Sora and elythara climbed the mountain and after some hours of hiking they reached the top and just as they looked they saw the tower. They went there and knocked on the door and.... After sometime an old mage opened the door. He asked who they were and they told him about them. He told them to enter the tower and asked them to sit down. They did as they were directed.
Sora was the first to speak up and asked about Aethoria, grand magician stopped for a second and told him to ask the question. Sora asked:
Sora: What is the name of the mist covered kingdom?
Grand magician: The name of the mist covered kingdom... You ask? The name of that kingdom is Aethoria.. the kingodm built by the god of knowledge himself.
Sora: Then why is it covered in mist and why does it feels like we are not in Draconia's waters now?
Grand magician: It is because you are not in Draconia's waters.. you are in Aether sea and this means you are in aethoria's waters. And the kingdom is covered in mist because the kingdom uses the relic of Blindness which makes people unable to see their land.
This made sora stop.. a kingdom so powerful that it made people unable to see them.. that's impossible right? But to his surprise the grand magician said this was not supposed to happen if Flamemaw didn't attacked aethoria. This all happened because of him and now everyone is paying the price of his acts including Draconia itself.
Elythara finally found her voice and asked what were the things they were seeing when entering the aether sea? The grand magician said those where the outer guardians of aethoria they roam around the aether sea to protect it from intruders.
And with that answer they went quite and took their leave.. when outside sora spoke up first.
Sora: we should part ways... For good. You go to Eldardoria and I'll be heading to Elyria.
Elythara: No... Let's go together.. to Eldardoria so can be safe-
Sora: (Cutting her off) no. I'm going Elyria and you too Eldardoria. End of discussion.
With that sora walks away leaving the map in her hand. He buys another boat with some money he had and sets sail to the kingdom of Elyria... On the other hand elythara just saw him disappear in the horizon, her heart was heavy but her pride was too much and she rejected to say that she was wrong. Later that day elythara also sets sail to the kingdom of Eldardoria..
"This isn't the final time they meet because in the future everything was going to change and that change might not what elythara was expecting"
