Eldros seemed to read Nina's thoughts. "I have no intention of manipulating you. You are… special, and Thraxxis had already set his sights on you long ago. But you are still free. Anything you do not wish to do—I will not force upon you."
He truly meant it. Everything he had done was simply following the natural course of fate.
Nina considered his words—and quickly came to terms with them.
If anything, this had brought her more benefits than harm. He had protected her, given her the chance to learn from another world, and even granted her Little Bun.
He had also saved Yanai… and Dian.
"…I understand," Nina said at last.
"If you wish to recover those memories, I can help you," Eldros offered.
"Alright." She didn't refuse.
Perhaps those memories held clues—about the beastman who had poisoned her.
With a wave of his power, Eldros restored what she had lost.
Fragments flooded back—scattered, then whole.
And within them, Nina did find something.
