*'''White-Ghost King's Soul:''' ''With the resources from Northern Empire and the knowledge we've gained from the laboratory, we were able to build the central portal. It naturally became the hub for everything in our land. The portal required a lot of manpower, which led to the two opposing races to cooperate. They shared technology and strength with each other in order to build their new homes. It wasn't perfect. There were still conflicts, big and small. But I thought it was just a natural stage in progress, like how a newborn pup trips and stumbles before it learns how to run. The two races began to learn how to get along and cooperate with each other.''

*'''White-Ghost King's Soul:''' ''This is what I wanted. The fear of the unknown, and hatred that stems from prejudice, all receding as we come to understand one another... If we can ally ourselves with enemies from another world, there was no reason that the two races, different yet similar, cannot come together in complete harmony.... Then the day might come, when I finally reveal that I am of mixed heritage.''
