"Saint's Trial..." I mused, glancing at Aquarina and wondering if she could qualify to enter. But perhaps she wouldn't want to bother either way. I also wondered whether I myself had the qualifications. Mist, Zephyrus, and Nephilim are not Saints, yet they went through the Trial and gained tremendous power from it. "I wonder if I could go myself one day?"
"Maybe you could," my mother replied with a nod. "I chose not to bring you with me because I believed your talent in Alchemy held far greater potential and carried less risk with Felicia than it would have with me. If you didn't have what it takes, the Ruler of the Guardians of the Saintess could have simply turned you away. I'm still surprised she ultimately allowed everyone I brought to participate... perhaps they were all exceptionally talented."
