Explorer Awakening

[名字], did you feel your aura expanding?

Are you Empress Cygnus? D-did something happen to me?

My first act to boost the Maple Alliance was to awaken the inner strength of the lost Heroes and the members of the Resistance. I, too, underwent a transformation, though it was not my intent.

I heard about that. What have you done to me? I feel...

Is it not familiar, like the brisk gasp of air as you break the water's surface? That is the strength inside you awakening. At the break of dawn, when the moon's light still fully enveloped Ereve, I reached out and my touch found the hearts of all of Maple World.

This feeling, this is my strength?

The Maple Alliance needs your power, all of it, to succeed. You must take this strength and learn to control it, for the good of us all. Otherwise, your life will fall to ruin. Will you prove yourself to me?

Our bright future grows closer by the moment.

Why do you hesitate? Do not fear what lies inside you.
