I've lived a dark life. Well, not that I particularly mind, though.

Starting from Al-Kamar, my emotions were erased, and I've been through all sorts of things. I guess that looks like a miserable life in other people's eyes.

……

Thinking back, maybe it was a miserable life. Looking at others, hardly anyone has faced the kind of misfortune I have.

…Well, it doesn't really matter what it was anymore.

…The past is already gone, after all…

This might be a bit out of nowhere, but that's why I feel you and I are so different.

Intuitively, if it's light and darkness, then more deeply, it's the difference between the deep sea and the shimmering surface.

I wonder if you realize that you shine that brightly.

….!

Look, even from this far away, aren't you dazzling?

Guest!!

I want to be like you.

I thought that if I stayed by the side of someone who shines more than anyone else, even someone like me could become bright.

Where are you going?! I want to go with you!

I guess the deep sea has no choice but to love the surface.
