After talking with Luna for a short while, I decided to leave the basement. I couldn’t tell the time down here, but I guessed that it was already getting dark. I didn’t want to worry anyone. Before I left, I decided to ask one more question.

“I want to know about this door. It didn’t react at all to other people, but it opened when I touched it. Do you know why?”

“Hm, that’s a rather interesting tidbit. Do you know what was written on the door?” Luna asked.

“Um, I think it was light and dark engulfing a star.”

“I see...” She seemed to have found some sort of answer. “The people who sealed me down here didn’t want anyone else to enter. So they put a lock in the shape of a vow.”

“A vow?” I was confused by her words.

“First, we’re working under the premise that perfect or absolute magic doesn’t exist. Hence, it’s impossible to create a magical seal that will never be undone. Magic will always have a loophole or an exception—in other words, a weakness or a key will always exist.”

“I see. And that applies to this as well?”

“Precisely. However, those who created the door gave it a key that could never be found. According to that engraving, only humans who possess both the light and the dark can enter.”

Even I could understand the paradox of that condition. If fire and water were to mix, one would be extinguished—they couldn’t coexist in the same realm.

“They created an impossible key and thought that it would trap me in here for good. But they couldn’t predict your existence. The foreign object inside of you is undoubtedly one of darkness, and you’ve suppressed it with the power of light. You’re treading a superbly fine line between the two forces, and you’re doing it very carefully.”

“My curse comes from the dark element...”

The polar opposite of light was dark. The pieces clicked into place. While I was suppressing my curse, the two elements had melted and mixed together, creating a balance of light and dark. As a result, I had become an existence of contradiction, and the owner of two opposing elements.

“Um, do you know what this is?” I asked. I showed her my chest and revealed the stain from the curse.

Luna stared intently before she spoke. “Unfortunately, I don’t know any details. I’m sorry I can’t be of any assistance.”

“Not at all. Thank you for teaching me all sorts of things. It was very helpful.”

After that brief conversation, I finally took my leave. My mind needed some time to process the vast amount of information that I had been given today. I wanted to go home and take a rest.

“I’ll be leaving now. But I’ll be sure to come again,” I replied.

“Sure. Come whenever you’d like. As you can see, I’ve only got time on my hands.”

She gave a small wave with her hand, at least as much as she could with a blade pierced through it. I quickly bowed in response, and left the chilly basement.
