302 Break Through Part One (1/2)

”You want to create a monument?” Tang Guanting was surprised that Alicia would go so far for people she did not even know.

”Yes, and I will also send them off.” Alicia raised her hands causing the ground underneath them to rise high into the sky. She shaped and forged the monument into a large monolith. She then carved into it in large characters. 'In memory of those who died in the battle between the Mortal Plane and the Machine Empire. May they rest in peace and find happiness in their next life.'

After she finished carving these words Alicia knelt down in the sky clasped her hands together and lowered her head. As she began to pray a song appeared in her mind. All of a sudden Alicia had no idea what was going on, a bright golden light formed around her body. Her green robes suddenly became a long white gown and the black and white wings on her shoulder blades appeared and extended throughout the sky. The golden light slowly expanded out and before she knew it her whole body was out of her control. Her mouth opened and a beautiful melody flowed from it.

”Ashes of time, Ashes of time...”

”The flow of time is always short...”

”The souls of the dead will always return from once they came...”

”Sending them off to be reborn...”

”Death is never the end but a new beginning...”

”Ashes of time, Ashes of time...”

”The flow of time is always short...”

”Guide and guard the dead until they have passed on to the next plane...”

As she sang, thousands of balls of golden lights began to lift into the air. Alicia had no idea what was going on. But she felt warm. It was as if an angel had wrapped their arms around her and helped her release the souls of the dead to allow them to pass on to the next life.
