封界內，銀光漸息，但所有人的心仍懸於驚愕與不安的邊緣。

紫苑沉默地站立，額心龍紋已微微收束，八重光環緩緩旋轉，彷彿整座封界正聽候她的第一道選擇。

艾瑟蘭將手伸入空中，律柱反應似地綻放符文光脈，投影出一張完整的「融合試煉環陣圖」。

「這八項試煉，非比尋常。」
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QaAN1FAfk
「它們不只是考驗妳的力量，而是考驗妳是否真正被這八個族群所認可——在血脈、靈魂、情感與記憶的層面。」

40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVm0OE5iPr
艾瑟蘭微微點頭。
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQwRAd2k8D
「每一血脈皆承載著歷史與意志的殘響。妳要面對的不只是當代的族群特性，而是來自過去千年累積的『創傷與期待』。」
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDvpcty2xe
「祂們將不以語言詢問妳，而是以夢、幻、痛、愛、恨——投射於妳的意識之中。」

「這取決於妳與那族血脈之間的衝突深度。」
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBbjSp648g
艾瑟蘭緩緩答道：
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVohgPzOjA
「若妳壓抑過某段族群的力量、曾傷害過、或曾被其遺棄——那試煉便會引導妳面對最深層的『記憶之鏡』。」

「準確地說，」艾瑟蘭點頭，「試煉允許一位共鳴者同行，是為了當妳靈魂無法承受試煉重壓時，有人能以『感情的實體』呼喚妳回來。」
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4h0GJVIQf
「但並非每一場試煉都能允許如此。」
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKAZt7iBhe

「這是納卡赫斯所定的融合基底——若連最初的『人性認知』都無法面對與自解，那後續七族之力將全數排斥。」
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYThhQbcz7i
「第一試煉，是融合的核心與起始。」
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEniv57pB6R
「因為妳的身體原初來自『人族之定義』，但靈魂卻被世界視為『非人』。」
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFabwCE8iZR
