Chapter 4-4

== Minori ==
Minori wakes up in a cold cell. He is brought before Kyokku and sees her in all her power. He is rattled and upon seeing her fully understands the crisis that will fall upon Yatan.
In a careless and disgusting display of her power, Kyokku shows Minori what happens when a being houses too many Sprites in their body. Eito combusts and dies on an altar as she overwhelms him with their power. Minori can only watch in horror.
Kyokku shows off The Unnamed, a prisoner of hers unlike any ordinary man. She explains his origins from the Arsylonian Empire and even reveals the creation of the Kikono through visions. (Excerpts on Unnamed and Temple of Skies are important here)
The Priestess reveals Somnium's name and shows no fear when Minori tells her he will cross her. She offers Minori the chance to stop the War, but he refuses.
