The ship rattled lightly as the stabilizers adjusted, preparing to land.
"Be prepared to be attacked as soon as we set foot—" Neo's words cut off when he felt a tug at his leg.
He looked down and froze.
A penguin stood there, flapping its stubby wings.
"What are you doing here?" Neo asked, recognizing it immediately.
The little bird tapped his leg several times in quick succession.
"You want the Darkness Firmament?" Neo guessed.
The penguin, Solus—Moraine's soul weapon manifestation—tilted its head and tapped his leg again, harder this time.
Like the current Moraine, it rarely spoke.
But somehow Neo always understood what it meant through its gestures.
Solus tapped him again.
Neo raised a brow.
"Why would she be angry if I didn't give it to you?"
Still, he sighed and extended his hand.
He drew out the Darkness Firmament Seed from his core and placed it in Solus' stubby flipper.
The penguin held the floating seed above its palm, staring at it with wide, gleaming eyes.
