However, just as Ian stepped into the Aether Furnace, he slowly stopped his steps, no longer going deeper.
The Fairy Queen, who was holding his hand, also stopped in place, looking at him with a puzzled expression.
[What's wrong, Ian? Why did you suddenly stop?] The Queen, somewhat confused at first, quickly noticed that Ian seemed to have thought of something and curiously asked: [Did the Aether Furnace inspire you in some way?]
"A lot."
Reaching out to touch the inner side of the Aether Furnace, Ian felt he was touching something grand and distant... If it were someone else, they might not even be able to describe it, but as a 'Prophet', Ian could sense that what he had just touched was not only the vast power contained within the Aether Furnace but also a long stretch of time spanning past and future.
