Yiben instinctively squeezed his legs together, not knowing why he felt a hint of sympathy when looking at Xie Jiatu—yet, sympathy aside, he quickly surveyed his surroundings, and eventually picked up a stone from the ground.

"And then?" Guardian Otto shook his head at this time, clearly indicating that more events followed, and the conversation shouldn't end here.
Xie Jiatu shook his head, looking somewhat regretful as he said, "At first, I didn't know what was on the Scales Tray... My first reaction was just to pick up the item from the tray—the one on the right. Thinking back now, if I had first picked the item on the left, perhaps the City of the Sun would look very different now."
Guardian Otto frowned, a thought occurred to him, "The right one belongs to Seth... Hmm, the left one is Horus's eye. So you're saying, whether it's Seth's relic or Horus's left eye, both are imbued with their respective wills?"
"Yes." Xie Jiatu nodded.
