Divine Purification

Zooey makes for Haramitsu Falls, the very same place the Twelve Divine Generals go for purification. Her resolve shines through as she undergoes the sacred rite with Dyrn and Lyrn.



Andira: Mahi and I will keep a lookout!
Anila: Very well. Here I go.
At the tail end of the previous year, the Joya had spread negative emotions throughout the skies before blasting off into the cosmos.
Zooey and a select few of the Twelve Divine Generals joined forces to stop the Joya in its quest for world destruction.
Because Zooey is the only one among them capable of reaching the cosmos, the Divine Generals entrusted her with the responsibility of quelling the Joya.
They now make for sacred grounds where Zooey can be purified in preparation to serve as a priestess and ring the Joya in their place.
Zooey: We're pretty deep in.
Vajra: Yep, the place is pretty far. But it won't be much longer now!
Anila: I know you're just helping us do our job, but I didn't think it'd mean a purification for you...
Vajra: There's no helping it. She has to undergo the rite if she's to ring the Joya.
Anila: That's true, but...
Zooey: ?
They are welcomed by the grand sight of a massive waterfall pounding the rocks before them.
Zooey: So this is... a waterfall?
Vajra: Yep. This your first time seeing one, Zooey?
Zooey: Uh-huh. What an amazing view! It's just beautiful.
Zooey: The air feels different too. It's really refreshing but somehow austere at the same time.
Anila: This is Haramitsu Falls, a sanctuary known only to those in our ranks among the Divine Generals.
Zooey: So this is where the purification happens...
Vajra: Mm-hm. Zooey, this way!
Vajra is as upbeat as ever as she approaches the waterfall basin.
Zooey: Hey, where are you going? You're going to run right into the waterfall.
Vajra: That's how the purification works!
Zooey: Wha?
Anila: Your shock does not come as a surprise.
Anila: The idea is to cleanse your mind and body by facing head-on the mighty cascade.
Zooey: And doing that will purify me?
Anila: Yes. While I sense no defilement from you, this is a trial that all of us priestesses must overcome.
Zooey: I see... I can understand why you were concerned.
Zooey: Withstanding this relentless downpour would be too much for any normal person.
Anila: Indeed. Waterfall training can present huge risks both mentally and physically.
Anila: The memory of my first purification rite still burns bright in my mind.
Anila: I shook in fear and wept so many tears.
Vajra: Oh, really? I didn't think anything could scare you, Anila!
Anila: I'm not some invincible being as you might believe, Vajra...
Anila: Though that was when I was much younger. I've gotten used to the frigid torrents since.
Zooey: Such a reaction is only natural for any child.
Anila: I apologize if it seems like we're forcing our traditions upon you, but will you accept the challenge?
Zooey: Of course. That's what I've come all this way for.
Vajra: Attagirl! You've got guts! But since this is your first time, I'll give you a hand.
Vajra: Gar was right beside me for my first shot at it.
Vajra: Made it so much easier!
Zooey: Thank you. But I'm sure you all ultimately overcame the trial by yourselves.
Zooey: And so I'd like to attempt it alone.
Vajra: Hm? You sure about that?
Zooey: Yes. But taking a hint from you, I suppose I can go in with Dyrn and Lyrn at first.
Dyrn: Rururu!
Lyrn: Grururu!
Vajra: Hahahah! Looks like you threw them quite the curveball.
Zooey: Hm... Is it too much to ask?
The dragons whimper to her in fear before the roaring waters.
Dyrn: ...!
Lyrn: ...!
Seeing Zooey's determination to go through with the challenge, they brace themselves for what's to come.
Zooey: Good dragons. Let's go.
Anila: Good luck!
Zooey: ...
Dyrn: ...
Lyrn: ...
Zooey: Rgh...
Dyrn: ...!
Lyrn: ...!
Zooey: Phew...
Dyrn: ...!
Lyrn: ...!
Vajra's Voice: Hey! That's good enough, Zooey!
Zooey: Mm... Good to know...
Dyrn: Rururu!
Lyrn: Gruru!
She tries to move from the basin, but her body will not budge.
Zooey: Rgh... It's like my body's frozen...
Anila: Uh-oh, that's not good!
Vajra: Shoot! You okay, Zooey?
Zooey: Ah-choo!
Dyrn: ...
Lyrn: ...
Anila: You did splendidly, Zooey! Here, warm yourself up!
Vajra: Woo-hoo! Good going! Was that tough or what?
Zooey: Yes... It was as challenging as any battle.
Vajra: Hahahah! I hear ya!
Zooey: But to think that you all experienced this multiple times to become priestesses...
Zooey: The Twelve Divine Generals are truly special... You have my respect.
Anila: Ahaha. And now you too have earned the right to slip into these sacred robes.
Anila: You've successfully undergone this most trying of purification rites. You should be proud.
Zooey: Hehe... So I'm a priestess now...
Zooey: Thank you. This makes me happy.
Vajra: Now you're free to help us out at the temples if you're ever feeling up to it.
Zooey: If my participation is welcome, I'd be more than glad to.
Anila: Ahaha, the work at the temples is just as demanding as ringing the Joya.
Zooey: Teehee. I was able to overcome the purification rite. I could use the challenge.
Vajra: Hahahah! How reassuring! We'll be sure to ask you when the time comes.
Anila: Yes, but for now we should focus on the present rather than the future. The Joya comes first.
Vajra: Right, of course! I look forward to our time together when this whole mess is over, Zooey!
Zooey: Likewise.
The purification rite has clearly demonstrated Zooey's resolve.
Though they first came together to face an unprecedented crisis...
Strong emotional bonds have begun to take shape between the Divine Generals and the keeper of balance.
