There were countless questions Evan wanted to ask, but the more he listened to Seraphine's explanations, the less he knew what to think about the situation.
At some point, he wasn't even sure whether he wanted to know more...
Or less.
Seraphine, who stood beside him, said nothing else, patiently waiting for him to process everything he had just heard.
"So... the Abyss is a consequence of humanity's use of mana. The Abyss has never actually been defeated, we've lost every single time. Then why are we still alive?"
"And these cycles you and that guy mentioned... what exactly are they?" Evan asked, voicing the last question he still couldn't understand.
He assumed the cycles referred to the Mana Apocalypse, but how could there have been more than one Mana Apocalypse?
And why would there be?
What happened after each one?
It was obvious there was still something missing.
