"The call vanished," Kyle told Sebastian.
"I can tell," Sebastian answered. "My Elemental no longer has the desire to go west. Are you thinking the same thing as me?"
"The Barrier Formation Array is gone?" Kyle asked.
Sebastian nodded. "Yep, and I think all the other ones are gone as well. I think we were right."
"The Ascension Pools," Kyle said.
Sebastian nodded again. "They probably tried to deal with them without destroying them or abandoning their position. I think they overloaded the Formation Arrays."
"Well, since we seem to be on the right course, we should wait. I don't think there will be more than ten years until the next Ascender appears. No matter how things go…"
"I don't think the Formation Arrays will return. If they die, nobody will rebuild them. If they succeed, they won't care about them. After all, in their mind, freedom is close."
"Most likely, yes," Sebastian confirmed. "So, we're going to wait for another ten years?"
