Asteria moved with cautious determination towards the star cavern, a place her late husband had sought to transform into a sanctuary for her. Once a haven, it was now infested with monstrous beings, rendering it a perilous location. As she resigned herself to a similar fate, a sudden portal materialized, and a heroic figure emerged. Swiftly darting past her, the hero engaged in combat with the invading creatures. It was then that she noticed the familiar moon sigil adorning the hero's sword and realized that her younger sister had sent this valiant savior.

After the battle, she led the hero into her modest abode, her mind filled with unspoken questions. Why had she been the one to be saved? Why not her husband? She gazed at the hero but held her silence. After all, she couldn't bring herself to trust this hero, regardless of who had sent them.

"Why have you come here? And why now?" she asked hesitantly, uncertainty evident in her voice as she finally posed two questions. The hero had saved her life, and she felt an obligation to express her gratitude in some way. But she thought about how her husband would react but didn't know how.

“Just…go away…. You're too late.”
