"…This story is just yet another part of our kingdom's great history to be kept by the great priestess Mayura herself wherever her travels may take her now. Perhaps in time this story will be forgotten, but for now we shall always think of the grand War of the Eyes." Miki blinked a few times, absorbing in what she had just learned, before lowering the book onto the table beside her and closing the faded red cover upon the pages.

"Big sister, how is that possible?" Miki asked. She jumped down from the chair she had been sitting upon, her long chestnut-brown hair fluttering around her like an aura. "How can that have really happened?" Her voice was sweet and pure, like honey, as she spoke and her light brown eyes were full of curiosity and wonder.

"It's all true, Miki. It really happened." Her sister's reply came from the other room, her voice as melodic as a song.

"But big sister, how could I have heard nothing of it then?" Miki asked again as she lifted the book from the table and carried it back over to the bookshelf where she had found it.

"Because you are lucky. The village here was spared from Valvanion's cruel wrath, just as the book says." Her sister replied casually.

Miki walked over to the doorway and looked in, watching as her elder sister washed a dinner plate in a tub of water. "So then, it really was true…? That's why you disappeared for so long…" Miki said, a tinge of sadness in her voice.

Her elder sister put down the dish and dried her hands upon her apron as she turned to face the younger girl. Her dark brown eyes and long flowing chestnut hair matched her sister's perfectly, but there was a steely look of resolve and wisdom in her gaze. "I'm afraid so, but I am back now to stay." She assured her.

"That's good." Miki grinned happily and ran over to her sister. "But what happens if the evil comes back?" She asked quickly with a frown.

The older girl sighed and lifted Miki into her arms. "Do not worry about it, Miki. It was made certain, to protect those of this world, that he would not be able to return. Ever." Mayura assured her sister sincerely.
