Two years later,

Since Vale had been sucked underground, they had built a town next to Vault where everyone from Vale could live. They had named the new town Vaul; they just combined the names Vale and Vault so it could show it was built by both Vale and Vault people. Vaul was a nice town with a big fountain in the middle of it. The houses were built the same and most of the people still had the same neighbors. It was almost like living in Vale itself.

Isaac had been doing well since he started living in Vaul. Things were back to normal for him once his dad was back home. His mom's spirits were up high and she seemed to be a lot more active. He stilled lived with his parents but they had started construction on a new house for him.

Garet had moved out of his parent's house. He lived near the town entrance but every day he would go visit his family so it felt like he was living there anyways. Garet's grandpa was still the mayor. He was a very skilled sword fighter. He would practice a few hours every day and a few times a week go out exploring and battle wild monsters.

Ivan lived in Vault again so it was like he was living in Vaul. He would go hang out with Isaac sometimes and go exploring in the ruins of Sol Sanctum. There was nothing really there, just some pieces of stone slabs that were remains of Sol Sanctum. There would be minor earthquakes here and there coming from Sol Sanctum, but that was all.

Mia went back to Imil to take care of her people and be the town healer. She lived in a house of her own but she was in a small town so it didn't matter. She hadn't really talked with anyone from her adventuring group for a while, but today was the 2nd anniversary of saving the world from Gaia Falls so she came to visit Vaul.

Felix was doing well with his parents back home. They had made a new house for their parents, but Felix had his own house also. He had gotten a job as the town's weapon and armor seller. He had the shop in his home downstairs, and upstairs was two bedrooms, a kitchen, a nice little living room, and a small bathroom.

Jenna decided that she wanted to move in her brother's new house so that's why there were two bedrooms. She would help run her brother's shop while he was making the supplies. She had become quite fond of Djinn and would play with her fire Djinn every day.

Sheba had gone back to Lalivero to settle things between Lalivero and Tolbi. She made it back just in time because chaos was erupting and there was going to be a war. After that, she decided to go back to Vaul. She was next-door neighbors with Garet's parents and she played with Garet's younger brother every day.

Piers also decided to stay in Vaul because that was where most of his friends lived. He would sometimes go hunting with Garet; sometimes help Felix with the shop. He was a friendly neighbor who would help a hand to anyone. No one still knew the age of Piers; it was a mystery to all except him.

Anyways, it was the two-year anniversary of saving the world. There was a big party in Vaul. Last year they couldn't have the party in Vaul because it wasn't finished being built. Instead they had it in Vault. Anyone who wanted to come to the party this year was welcome. Mai's parents came with Mai to the party and Sheba had some friends come from Lalivero to celebrate. Everyone would have some food and drinks and talk to each other. It was a day to relax and celebrate.

"Hi, Mia, I haven't seen you for a while!" Piers exclaimed to Mia.

"Well, I live far away and I don't get out much as the town healer," she told him.

"So you're the town healer, I never knew that," he said.

"Well, yeah, I have good healing powers so the people chose me as their town healer and I accepted," she told him.

"Well, that's nice!" Piers said.

As Piers and Mia were having a nice conversation the parents of Isaac were having not as nice of a conversation.

"You know, Kyle, the area around Mt. Aleph has been acting up," Isaac's mom said. "The earthquakes have become bigger and bigger, in fact, this morning there was an earthquake that knocked off one of my favorite pots and broke it."

"I don't know what do, Dora," Isaac's dad responded. "There's no way to get into Sol Sanctum, and until we find a way there's nothing we can do!"

"Look up, Kyle, it's noon time," she said.

Just as she finished her sentence a huge earthquake hit Vaul and everyone was knocked down. No one was hurt but what came next would be a shock to everybody.
