The truth hidden behind a lie.

Asha and Quetzacóatl found themselves facing the guardian Levi, the fearsome Leviathan. Unfortunately, the latter was not inclined to listen to the arguments of the two protagonists. However, at Asha's insistence, he eventually revealed the identity of the stone colossus who had tried to eliminate them. This revelation surprised Asha, who could not believe what she had just heard.

Asha: How can you say that? It is unthinkable that the mages could have committed such atrocities.

Lévi: You are blinded by these completely invented stories.

Asha: Since our childhood, we have learned to admire the courage of the mages in the world, and you are one of them; Quetzacóatl.

Quetzacóatl: It is true that I was once a human, but unlike some, I was not blinded by power.

Asha: Could you explain to me why you say humans are the cause of everything?

Quetzacóatl: Do you know the story of the Tremor mage?

Asha: Of course, it has been told to us since we were very young.

Quetzacóatl: What exactly do you know about Tremor?

Asha: We always learned that Tremor was a very talented and powerful archmage, and that he and his army fought the demon army to the last breath.

Hearing Asha praise Tremor, Levi became angry.

Levi: You should leave, that name may not be welcome in these places.

Quetzacóatl felt Lévi's anger and decided to leave.

Quetzacóatl: Let's go.

Asha: But...

Quetzacóatl: There is no debate, this time do what you are asked.

She then left with Quetzacóatl.

Along the way, Asha was deep in thought, wondering if the amount of hatred directed towards them could finally find an explanation. Suddenly she stopped.

Asha: Excuse me, could you tell me the story of Tremor, the real story?

Quetzacóatl: Why do you want to know?

Asha: I would like to understand why Levi hates us so much.

Quetzacóatl: If you wish.

Quetzacóatl's response surprised Asha.

Asha: Oh!

Quetzacóatl is about to reveal everything to Asha, who thanks him. He then begins to tell him the story of Tremor, the archmage of the earth and one of the leaders of the army seeking to seize the source of magic at the end of the Dark Ages. Possessing the Earth Elemental Stone, Tremor performed a ritual to merge Gaia's essence with her armor using the stone, granting her immense power. Unfortunately, this ritual led to the destruction of Gaia's personality.

Asha: It's terrible.

Quetzacóatl: However, this is the reality. When the army arrived at the source of magic, Leviathan became aware of what had happened with Gaia and flew into a rage, slaughtering Tremor and the entire army.

Quetzacóatl: I had to intervene to stop him and prevent him from massacring the last survivors.

Quetzacóatl: Since this day it has been known as the Day of the Wrath of the Ocean, marking the end of the Dark Age and the beginning

Since that day, it has been known as the Wrath of the Ocean, marking the end of the Dark Ages and the beginning of the Age of Hatred. This story made the blood run cold.

- The age of hatred, I had already heard about it. What a terrible story.

- Now that you know everything.

- I now understand his hatred towards humans better, we have committed an irreparable crime against Gaia, his hatred is justified.

Quetzacóatl expressed satisfaction with the reason for his opposition to the meeting. Suddenly, Asha thanked him warmly.

Asha: I'm grateful to you for coming with me.

Quetzacóatl then told her that she no longer had her place here and that she should return to her family.

Asha shook her head and said:

Asha: I don't want to go back.

Quetzacóatl, perplexed by Asha's response, expressed his disappointment by shouting at her again.

Quetzacóatl: Asha, I understand your determination. I assure you we will find a way to right our mistakes. You are brave, don't take unnecessary risks.

Quetzacóatl: Your heart is noble, we perceive that you are different from other humans.

Asha: Oh!

Quetzacóatl: I am convinced that you will succeed in persuading the Leviathan sooner or later.

Asha was deeply moved by Quetzacóatl's words, and expressed her gratitude to him with a broad smile.

Asha: I’m grateful.

Suddenly, they were surprised by an explosive attack.

Asha: What is it?

After being separated from Quetzacóatl, Asha was seriously injured, but she got up courageously.

Quetzacóatl ran up to her and asked: Are you well?

Asha replied: It's okay, I've had worse.

Quetzacóatl then advised him to take shelter, because creatures were in front of them.

Intrigued, Asha asked: But what are these creatures?
