... Now. Inhaling sharply, Tear's eyes fluttered open and she immediately sought Ace's hand without even pausing to think about it. Gaze still unfocused and her face paler, the melodist tentatively reached up to touch her brow as she struggled to even comprehend what she had just seen, how to put it into words they could all understand. Before there had been no question about where she stood regarding their opponent's fate, but after the vision she had willingly brought onto herself... she wasn't so sure.
Focusing her attention on the fallen Tarutaru, her expression still did not hold much sympathy, yet it couldn't be any more clear that hesitation was beginning to bloom.
"Jade." Silently cursing the faint tremor that had managed to escape her control, the look she fixed on him was nonetheless fierce. If there was anyone she could speak to, it was him, and ultimately it would come down to his decision as the only one with the capability of healing Palitutu. "She'll wake up. If we spare her now, then she will wake up and while we might find an ally in her, it could be because of a catastrophe that will center in Aqures Tosf."
Again, again she had been bestowed a vision involving the remains of a castle and dark energy. Did that mean it was unavoidable, no matter what they did? The girl shook her head to clear that thought—in this moment her focus had to be in delivering those details, however much she was struggling to piece them together as she went.
"Everyone... Everyone will be there, our enemies and allies alike united against this." Or so she had understood it, why couldn't she have seen more? "I don't know what plan she had conceived or what will happen to cause it, nor what would allow all four Black Crystals into our possession only to hand them over to known Avatars."
It was hardly all the details, only what she perceived to be important to share now. There was also another crucial message to deliver alongside it, too.
"It's only a possibility." Breaking her gaze away from her companion, she looked to the Heroes still remaining, lingering just a few seconds longer on those who were so earnestly advocating to spare their enemy. "The future isn't set, we all know that."
However, even as she said the words she couldn't stop her grip from tightening around her partner's hand, pressing past the unpleasant memories such words might rekindle.
"The future... is still ours to make. It starts here."
Because the fact of the matter was, they were running out of time to make that decision. The girl found herself longing to have been able to hear what the Tarutaru was about to say, closing her eyes as if she were tempted to try again, just to know what could have happened to unite them.
