Gill—Age Eleven

“Gramps, Duke wants to get you out of here.”

I deliver the news to him as soon as I arrive at his cottage in Roana Village. Duke couldn’t make the trip with me for a few reasons, so I’m here on my own.

“Duke… You mean Luke’s only son?”

Since Gramps came to Roana Village before Duke was born, they’ve never met. Duke seemed to know of him, though.

“What do you want to do, Gramps?”

“What will become of this village if the master leaves?” Rebecca cuts in before Gramps can answer.

“She’s right. We can’t go along with rich people’s sick games forever,” Nate adds from beside her.

Nate is the captain of the peacekeeping platoon in Roana, and now he wants to use military force to escape the village. I realized just how strong he is when he dueled Alicia before—he’s quite capable.

I wasn’t expecting to come back to Roana to find a militia here, though.

…This village is finding its purpose, slowly but surely. Alicia and Gramps changed this place for the better. The former wasteland is now vibrant with life.

I stare at Gramps, watching him protectively as he silently wrestles with his thoughts.

“I never wanted to think of this place as my home…but that’s changed,” I say. “We owe it all to Alicia. She saved my life and got me out of this village. She healed Rebecca’s burns and gave her the chance to be this village’s messiah. She shared one of her eyes with you, Gramps, and made you this village’s leader. None of this would have happened without her… That’s why I want to live up to her expectations. Her relentless ambition gives me courage.”

I put all my feelings out there at once. And everyone quietly listens. I never imagined I could give such an impassioned plea. Whenever I think of Alicia, the words just flow freely.

I can never thank her enough. She is my light of hope.

“Gill—you’ve grown big,” Gramps says, gently patting my head.

I love his touch. His acknowledging me was my primary motivation in coming back to this dreadful place.

“It’s about time I move on with my life, too,” Gramps murmurs, his eyes filled with determination. “I’ll do it… I’ll leave Roana.”

Everyone swallows the solemn words in silence. This day has been a long time coming…

“If we fear what lies ahead, we can’t change anything for the better,” Gramps adds.

“But what’ll happen to us?” Nate protests, glaring sharply at him.

“You’re coming with me,” he answers.

“We are?” Rebecca asks.

“How? This kid may have gotten a potion from some rich guy, but how’re the rest of us supposed to leave the village?! If it weren’t for those damn magic walls, we all would have left ages ago!” Nate snaps, on the verge of exploding.

Indeed, Arnold gave me a pink potion, Avel, that helps me pass through the magic walls. Whether there’s enough potion for everyone in the village is another matter entirely.

“I’ll negotiate with the king,” Gramps answers.

“……You’ll leave alone, then?” I ask.

“I’ll be back right away.”

“Ya might not be, though.
