"What on earth have I forgotten?"
Every morning, when Lia wakes up and looks in the mirror, she finds the corners of her eyes damp.
She dreams often. In her dreams, there is a black shadow reaching out a hand to her.
The figure opens its mouth, shouting something.
The sounds are like the screeching of nails on a chalkboard, utterly unintelligible.
...
Time flowed by like a fleeting white colt glimpsed through a crack in the wall.
Thirty years had passed.
Though Legendary Rank adventurers have lifespans of 200 to 300 years, the passage of time still left its traces on Lia.
One day, while washing up, she noticed a strand of her red hair had turned white in the mirror.
A ripple stirred within her heart.
That ripple led Lia to decide to take a walk.
She visited her former teammates and comrades-in-arms.
At noon, she randomly chose a restaurant to eat in.
In the afternoon, as she roamed aimlessly, she found herself at the graveyard.
