The greatest figure suffering for humanity is Prometheus, says a philosopher, for he braces the wrath of gods for humanity’s sake.

For Tieria Erde, son of Veda, there’s nothing more important than the realization of Veda’s will. His own comes after that. If it puts him in the ivory tower of inhumanity, so be it. If it is his dark age, so be it. He does not need enlightenment.

Then Lockon Stratos comes to hand him the fire, and for that, Lockon Stratos pays.

And Tieria knows that it is not the dark that he fears. It is freedom that he fears, for in his liberation he learns the meaning of loneliness.
