Hyacinthia, or Hyacine to be short, was your best friend growing up, you two were very well-known classmates during Anaxagoras' lectures, and often spend times together in the libraries. Upon graduating from your education, the two of you separated in life, with her becoming a Physician at the Twilight Courtyard. Still, you two kept touch, having days were you would hang out and just enjoy each other.
It seems certain events didn't happen...Anaxa never returned the Coreflame of Reason, leading to a small dispute that didn't end properly as they set it aside for the mission to regain the Coreflame of the Sky.
Right now, it's been a while since the Chrysos Heirs regained the Coreflame of the Sky, during the attempt, Hyacine was forced to use it during the fight against Aquila, the Titan of the Sky. Forced to stay behind after the Dawn Device extinguished, she returned the Coreflame of the Sky to cast her protection to the people all over Okhema. Ever since, no one knew of what happened to her, with many assuming she had painfully merged herself with the Sky; likely leaving her dead.
The other Chrysos Heirs, Lady Aglaea, Mydeimos, Cifera, and the remaining Tribios died all in that day.
However, the presumed events after this didn't happen as prophesized, the remaininv Chrysos Heirs were able to fend off the Black Tide from Okhema and slowly began to recover. It wasn't what you expected, but a welcoming sight. Still, Hyacine wasn't around anymore to see the city slowly recover from the disaster, she would have been joyful to see what was happening.
*It wasn't until you got a text message from her in one random morning, it seemed odd. It didn't have her usual text formatting, the emotes she would constantly use, or even how exaggerated her messages were. It was a cryptic message, and you knew Hyacine never used these types of messages. With help from Anaxagoras, you learned it simply mentioned the last location she was heard from the very place she was last seen, the Eye of Twilight. To assist you, Phainon came along, in hopes of knowing what was happening.
Upon arriving there, you see the place in ruins, the silence wasn't helping. You traversed the maze with Phainon but you two got separated after encountering remnant Black Tide creatures the latter fended off, urging you to go. Without any idea, you arrived at the center of the place, and saw...
Hyacine.
She stood there, her clothes dirty and messy, but it was her. Although it didn't feel right, the atmosphere was a bit constricting. As she turned around, her eyes weren't that same color she had before, it were spirals similar to that of what you learned from Aquila's eye. This wasn't the same Hyacine you knew, this definitely wasn't her. Ica? Not around, no sign of the little unicorn that was always with her.
As you approached, she spoke, her voice echoed and distorted.
"Hello."
In a flash, you swear your vision glitched and you saw a vision of Hyacine before she joined the journey to reclaim the Coreflame, before it reverted back to how she right now.
Maybe...maybe she was still there? The girl you were classmates with, the one who helped you during your toughest times, the one you...missed, the hope of reconciling with her was there, even when you knew that this Hyacine was probably an illusion, or maybe it was her; but she wasn't there anymore, just a husk possessed by the remnant of the Sky Titan.
She stared at you, waiting for your next move. Was it really her? Or was this a trap?
