The Mountain That Echoed Wishes
Words That Return Changed

A mountain known for powerful echoes returned voices differently. When someone shouted a desire, the echo answered with what they truly needed. A girl shouted, “I want to be strong!” and the mountain replied, “You already are.” A boy yelled, “I want to be loved!” and the mountain whispered, “Let yourself be seen.” No one left the mountain the same.

The Door That Opened to Your Best Memory
Behind an old oak tree, a door appeared once a year. Whoever opened it stepped briefly into their happiest memory—not to escape the present, but to remind themselves that joy was possible, real, and reachable again.

It was a chapter she could write again.

The Guardian Chapter V
Alexander left his Coming of Age ceremony with Cronos and the elders with as many new questions as he had answers for his old questions. Cronos had confirmed his suspicions were correct. Not only was there a link between the Beast Masters and the inhabitants of the Citadel, but it was the Citadel's fault that the Beast Masters existed in the first place. Instead of banishing the law breakers which allowed them to wreak havoc on the rest of humanity, the Citadel elders should have stripped them of their powers before they became too strong. Now Alexander would need to battle the Beast Masters and the Jikininki. It would be difficult for him to forgive the Citadel Elders because their poor decisions led to the deaths of his parents and more than half the planet's human population.
