Yearning: By Your Side

Holy Chamber

You

Hey, Youngchun. I've been thinking...

It feels like things have gotten a bit too visually cluttered around here lately.

Youngchun

Oh, you can see those, too, now?

You

Yeah. There's this fluffy, cloud-like thing floating around some of them.

What a relief. I thought I was imagining it.

Youngchun

It caught me off guard at first, too.

You

Do you have any idea what it is?

Youngchun

I feel like this began after SHE turned up in the Order Underground.

You

It has something to do with ED?

Youngchun

I'm not entirely sure, but she's perpetually dreaming, right?

These things we're seeing... They probably have something to do with what the Apostles are dreaming of.

You

How many can you see?

Youngchun

There's something floating next to all of them. Can you only make out a few, Master?

You

Yeah... just the ones who are easy to read, I guess?

The ones I hang out with often or do stuff together with, those guys?

Youngchun

Looks like you can only see the ones from the Apostles you're close to.

You

Really? Close? I'm not sure...

Youngchun

If being able to transparently see what someone wants isn't being close, then what is?

When you're that close... constantly talking, knowing everything about each other... does physically seeing their desires like a drawing really feel that strange?

I imagine it's only visible to you as the Master, to the Apostles themselves, and to me since I bear Yggdrasil's power.

You

Still, it's really weird...

Youngchun

It's not a bad thing, is it? And it's not like seeing someone else's desires means you have to fulfill them.

Folks tend to treat you better if they feel you truly understand their inner thoughts.

You

Hm, I guess it's not something I need to worry about if it isn't a bad thing.

Youngchun

Worry? Why would you worry? There's no need.

You

I mean, anyone can tell Erpin thirsts for cake.

Youngchun

.........

You

Not to mention, Ashur secretly thirsting for great magical success isn't exactly subtle either.

Youngchun

.........

You

Amelia is secretly thirsty for—

Youngchun

Master, shh.

You

Huh? What's wrong?

Youngchun

Let's call it something else. It might cause a headache if we keep going on about what everyone "thirsts" for later...

You

What should we call it then?

Youngchun

Something that would be more fitting?

Something to capture these Apostles' dreams... desires...

Hmm, let's see... Um...

You

Yearning?

Youngchun

Mmm...

You

Okay, that's a yes, then? Are we going with Yearning?

Youngchun

Wh-What the heck is that? Yearning? What does it mean?

You

Didn't you just agree to it?! I thought you knew what it meant!

Youngchun

Uh, when?!

*Sigh* I suppose anything's better than the idea of "thirsty" Apostles.

You

Anyway, should we not do anything about these Yearnings for the time being?

Pretend we don't see anything?

Youngchun

It might be a good idea to tell them about it... It might cause chaos if their Yearnings suddenly pop out of nowhere.

You should guide these Apostles on the right path as Master.

The key is to steer the Apostles and their passion for their desires—no, their Yearnings— in the right direction so they work in our favor.

That should help us really draw out the Apostles' untapped power!

You

Hmm, okay.

Youngchun

Try your best! I'm sure you can do it!
