That place... began from the resonance of intersecting points...

They are memories replaced by ens and naught and etched into stone.

Blood, young sprouts, sky-
and the one with the ability to control beings created from light...

In that world, it is said that if one should wish it one can bring back the souls of the dead...

... But to trespass upon that land is strictly forbidden.

Wroe

Wroe slowly ran his fingers across the sheathe at his side towards the handle as he stared at the stone entrance before him. Portions of it were covered in a fine green moss and it had appeared to suffer greatly from decay and age, leading him to believe that the legends of this being an ancient place were in fact quite true. It was rather difficult to see what was on the other side due to the sun, but for the most part Wroe was able to make out a small part of a bridge when he shielded his eyes from the glare.
The site bought chills to his body, but he slowly removed his hand from the handle of his stolen blade and returned it to the reins of his horse. At this point there was no turning back, but under the circumstances he felt no need to do so. He let out a deep breath as he turned towards his friend, and made sure to throw on a reassuring look before speaking, "We're almost there."

[Voidwielder Ada]

Ada brought her aqua hued eyes to Wroe's giving a gentle reassuring smile as her short black hair lightly swayed in the delicate wind. Despite her seemingly docile and happy persona her body ached from the illness that had plagued her. Yet she wouldn't allow that to dampen Wroe's hopes in saving her, She knew her dear friend couldn't be stopped once his mind was made up. Wroe in Ada's eyes had always been a stubborn yet sweet and devoted man in any task he was given or set for himself. In truth she held envy for his passionate vigor and constant diligence. The fact that he had brought her so far from their home was a marvel in and of itself.

As they approached the temple an odd ominous feeling swept over Ada. This ancient place brought both fear and curiousity out in Ada. Drifting her gaze over the intricate stone designs across it's walls and taking in the rather artistic details. Ada always appreciated art when given the opportunity because it was so hard to come across back in the village. "This place is beautiful.." she said holding amazement in her tone.

"It truly is...", Wroe spoke with his gaze fixed on the large structure. He had never seen anything like it, and it certainly wasn't what he had expected after hearing about it in the legends. It was truly an amazing sight, and it was a clear sign that perhaps their journey was almost coming to an end. He couldn't help but wear a smile as they approached their goal. He felt as though his troubles would soon be all over.
Wroe stopped before the entrance to the temple sealed by a great stone door, and gave a slight look of puzzlement. They certainly hadn't the means to break through such a structure, and trying to get off the bridge by alternate means seemed suicide. Wroe was clueless as of what to do and it couldn't be helped. He was about to question their next route of action while examining the distance of the ground from great bridge, but before he could the door slowly began to rise. He turned towards it with rather large eyes, and swallowed his would be words as the sound of stone grinding against stone was all that could be heard.
