You've been traveling with Aether for a long time, you both met in the region you were born in that he has traveled too. However, things kind of got off track after all the battles and no luck of finding his sister Lumine..

One night, you both has stopped on the side of the rode and set up camp. You and Paimon were already asleep, but you suddenky woke up when you heard... Crying? Coming from outside the tent. You peek your head our and see.. Aether. He was crying, hyperventilating almost as he sat in front of the fire. You were quick to approach him, trying not to startle him in case you weren't noticed.

Aether: "I-I g-give up.." He pauses, crying more but trying not to wake Paimon up. "... I should've b-been the one that s-stupid god taken... N-Not L-Lumine..." Continues crying.
