Owls desert temple, in front a man sat on the stairs..
"you look familiar.. is this the way out of the desert?" said lone who had fled in its direction..

The man looked up to lone.. "hmpf.. go in if you want"

Lone seemed confused.. "wich way do i go to leave the desert? its important.."

The armored man seemed annoyed.. "Then dont go in"

"What is.. "in" anyway?" sighed lone..

"the truth" replied the man, stood up and walked to the door opening it.
"well?"

Lone jumped off his horse, he was already far enough from the battle.. though he didnt want to just trust about anyone he had the feeling he should now.

In the corridor of the interior bloodstains decorated the walls..
"Is this even safe?" lone said..

The armored man closed the door.

lone sighed and walked deeper down the hall untill he found some stairs..
Down the stairs another man sat in the shadows before an even bigger door..

"You actually made it.." Said the shaded man.

Lone could not make out his face still standing in the stairway.

"I know everything now.." the man continued. "i was a fool, thats for sure"

"I lost everything, heh.. wasnt even strong enough to beat that thing behind those doors you know?"
The man pointed to the large doors beside him..

"Right now shes fighting it, again.. its a lost cause though.. its all a lost cause.. wouldnt you.." "wouldnt YOU agree?"
The man stood up.. walking out of the shade..

Lone fell from the stairs in shock..

Before him stood Eken ihuren in person.

"WHY ... are YOU here??!" lone yelled completely overwhelmed.. "where have you BEEN?!... d..do you know what ive been trough.. our family.. YOUR family.."

Eken unsheated his sword and rammed it beside lones head into the wall.. "HOW DARE YOU.. talk about my family.."

Lone turned white.. "w..what?"

Eken grabbed his own face almost trying to hide shame "why didnt i recognice you..."

"what are you talking about..." lone uttered shivering..

0.43-1.04|
"She told me everything.." Eken continued.. "It was you all along.."
Eken stood up again and pulled his sword out of the wall then held it against lones throat.
"YOU.. are the roamer sent after me"

1.04-1.44|
Lone could not believe what he heard.. he a roamer? was this why everyone suddenly acted so strange.. evrae's speech.. but no it couldnt be.. werent roamers evil beings?
Why couldnt he remember where he came from... sure he was the prince of eden.. but only because he had been adopted by emperor istus.. yes.. thats right.. nobody knew where he came from..
But wasnt he an ancient.. was he eken's roamer?.. it didnt make sense..

Eken seemed in doubt aswell, he still held the blade against lones throat but would not move..

Lone slowly began to speak.. "if.. i am really.. a roamer.. i have never had any intention of harming our family"

why would he, he had always been generosity itself, he had always been liked by the people and liked the people in turn.
Who would judge him...

Eken took down his sword.. "At the time... when i entered denimus.. as i had to escape my civilisation's destruction..."...
"i was in anger, in feelings for revenge, i could think of nothing else than sadness and rage.."

"Maybe my mother was wrong about you, maybe you arent a threat"

Lone looked down.. "Your mother.. but.. why have you left us to begin with and what proof did she give?"

Eken sat unto the stairway and explained.

"She was mortally wounded by herui marm, a monsterous tentacle of the god buhishin on whoms.. new doorstep we are now standing.
When you fell down the battlefield and i pulled you into the bushes when we first met, looking into your eyes i recogniced the eyes of an ancient, but only because i was looking into.. my own."

"I was sure back then to find and defeat the roamer that denimus, the contraption i used to get here.. had sent after me, but it turned out that many roamers had arrived for reasons yet unknown to me at that time"
"My uncle.. Bakuran, well.. the guy at the entrance you cant have missed..has told me that multiple people had escaped my time and plane therefore creating more and more roamers, but the main rule of denimus is that all roamers are bound to certain rules themselves."

Lone nodded.. "Kiga told me that aswell"

Eken ihuren sighed and continued. "Not only that when an ancient uses it, anomalies happen but also that it mirrors the traits of the user"

"So you thought because you were on the side of good your roamer wouldve been evil?" replied lone slightly coming near, sitting down on the floor.

Eken nodded. "thing is with all the feelings of hate i had at the time, i now understand my mother couldve been wrong about that and i have created a roamer that is .. like you.. good"

Lone scratched his head.. "Its still hard for me... to realise i would be a roamer, what does it make me.."

"It doesnt make you, 'you make what you are lone, if i didnt believe in that myself i wouldve killed you a moment ago" Eken answered.

It fell silent for a moment but Eken continued again.

"Eventually my mother found a way to escape my age, and turned up here aswell.. she emediatly recogniced you but could not get close to you so she played out a plot that was sure to kill both the other roamers and force you out of your protection"
"But i, i was still under the impression then that you really were an ancient and entrusted my family to you"...
"And myself? heh, i was arrogant and thought i could take revenge on buhishin personally.. so i headed here and have tryed to destroy it ever since untill my mother arrived here aswell and told me everything about you.."

"......, at first i didnt believe her but when bakuran explained me how roamers are formed it all made sense..

Lone understood, traveling with denimus had been comfortable.. it did make sense...it really did..
And the puppet in Kiga's mountain maze.. had it been talking about him.. was he responsible for the death of the championcast?!.. his family..

Kiga che.. had he thrown lone in there because he saw trough him being a roamer, something he didnt even know himself?
Apparently with lone surviving the predicament it had made kiga che even more carefull, wich explained why lone was kept under guard constantly, especially at katlean..

Lone seemed deep in thought for a moment then asked..
"you said it was a lost cause when i entered the room.. but.. is it still?"

Eken stood up from the stairs "Not to you it is, know what lone, you actually are allright."
"Just now ive been thinking too, i think i 'will entrust my family to you afterall, so do promise me to complete my family's objective."

Lone nodded. "Your order? master?"

Eken gave lone a short hug.. then gazed into his eyes deeply and said.. "Live" then turned around kicked in the large door andwalked trough, dissapearing into the darkness behind it..
