The gift Elysia gave him was quite a surprise, something he had never expected. It was a painting of him and her, yet not of their current lives….. It was a painting drawn from their previous life.
Both of their faces were different from the ones they carried now, and even their hair and eyes had changed. The background too belonged to another time, a memory far removed from the present.
As Ash looked at the painting and then at Elysia, he was left speechless. He could imagine how difficult it must have been for her to recall fragments of the past in such detail, how much effort it must have taken to put them together into something whole. After all, not everyone had the Rune of Knowledge like he did, and to reconstruct such a memory without it was something he could not help but admire.
