~A Match of Two Souls~
oO-The Little Sister-Oo
Hikaru, Mokona, and Caldina could only stare blankly at the person standing beside the Pharle.
"Hikaru," Presea introduced, "This is my younger twin sister, Sierra. She's a Pharle just like me, but our skill sets differ in terms of what we can do."
"I can see the resemblance!" Caldina whistled. "Name's Caldina, nice ta meetcha!"
"H-Hajimemashite!" Hikaru bowed with Mokona still in her arms. "My name is Shidou Hikaru!" She looked up in awe at Presea's sister.
The young woman looked exactly like the Pharle they'd come to know so well. There were only two major differences. Where Presea wore an tunic under a cream outer robe, Sierra wore a soft yellow tunic under a cream outer robe. The other detail that set her apart from her older twin was that her hair was worn in a thick braid down her back.
"It's a pleasure to meet you all," Sierra greeted with a smile. "I've heard so much about you from my sister, especially you, Hikaru!"
"Can you do it, Sierra?" Presea looked at her sister after explaining the situation.
Hikaru looked at the new individual pleadingly.
The younger Pharle's face fell into a grim expression.
"I've fixed many items forged from Escudo," Sierra said seriously, "But this is a dangerous situation, if only because it's something that's never happened before. I'm sure that my sister explained the properties and costs of not just obtaining Escudo, but wielding something forged from it?"
Hikaru and Caldina nodded as Mokona cooed from the teen's arms.
"Then you understand the oddity of these circumstances?" Sierra continued. "I can try to help you regain your sword, Hikaru, but it won't be an easy process, as I've never had to actually bring back an item that was destroyed. Because this is a delicate and unknown situation, I don't know what will happen. Often when I must repair a weapon of Escudo, the wielder must prove themselves worthy of wielding it. It's possible you might face a trial like that."
Sierra looked the teen straight in the eye. "Are you sure you want to do this? I will need to look into your heart, your very soul; are you willing to trust me? Are you willing to risk your very life just to reclaim your sword?"
"Yes!" Hikaru nodded.
