"Do you have any more questions?" Jiroeki asked.
Arlon had many.
But before anything else, he reached into his inventory and pulled out a small, worn-out note.
It was something he had found deep inside the cave beneath Oceina—after killing the monster placed there by the Keldars.
At first, he had assumed the note was dropped by the creature. But after speaking with Agema, he realized that might not have been the case.
Agema had told him one thing.
"This isn't something that should exist in Trion."
And more than that—
"You shouldn't know about it before ascending. So, I can't answer your questions."
That had been frustrating. But it had also given Arlon a lead.
This note had a connection to something beyond Trion.
And now, after everything he had just learned, he had a suspicion.
There was a link between Jiroeki's race and Trion.
So, he looked up and asked—
"Why was your race trapped in the Tower?"
Jiroeki's face darkened.
