"I've got it!"
The young man let out a low growl and closed his eyes. All the experiences he had gone through with his mother, those scenes filled with hope and light, played out like a kaleidoscope.

Could the Lord of Light and Shadow really exist?
Could hope really exist?
Having confirmed it, the belief in the young man's heart soared exponentially. The once-hidden hatred and desire for resistance suddenly erupted like a prairie fire.
