Before Walker could even look elsewhere or move he felt his body move on its own. "Come forth those who are lost. Join again those who walk the line of the living. Feel the warmth of life. Find your path." 

The feeling of cold was pushed out of the night air and the square became much busier than it was a moment before. The words Walker had spoken were not in his voice but one he did not recognize. It was almost as if he had used a mastery skill but he knew all too well that he had not used it. It had just been used through him. 

There were many figures he could not recognize dancing and walking around him. Many black clothed people that found dance partners and seemed to drift off in smoke. Most people didn't realize what was happening and Walker thought he might have lost his mind. But when he saw the people dancing and drifting off in smoke he could only feel that his heart was more and more full. As if this was something finally becoming complete. 

The tug on his coat brought him back to reality, "Are you alright?" Alice was standing next to him. Her sweet voice had broken his daze and caused his focus to return. 

"Umm, yes. I think so. I may have just seen a ghost though…" Alice just held him tighter and looked about. She had seen the girl in the blue dress but as soon as a man had interrupted Walker and the girl the two had disappeared. Then she had seen Walker raise his hands and the wind gave a slight breeze. She had worried something had happened. 

"I'm fine. I think I understand. It's a lot, just another ghost story for the harvest festival I guess." Walker knew that if he tried to explain it he would just sound crazy. But Alice shook her head anyways and wanted to hear it. 

The two sat down by one of the fires and Walker told the story of a wine merchant and his wife traveling with their two children. The older son had gained a spearman system and vowed to protect his parents who sold and traded wine on their travels. Their daughter had become excited by the harvest festival and had been promised dancing and food. 

However, they had been mobbed by orcs in the plains just as they could see the city far in the distance. This led to the little girl's spirit wandering every year in hopes of a dance partner. Never to be seen or noticed because of her existence. 

But for some reason, someone did notice. Someone caught glimpses of her and finally was pointed to focus on the lost spirit. They danced, finally bringing an end to the dream the girl had. A guide managed to find the spirit and take it away to where it belonged after many years. 

Alice listened intently to the entire story. She had no doubt that this was what had just happened. She had true trust for Walker and everything. However, she could not help but feel tears in her own eyes while listening to the fate of the family. But the ending was the best part. The finality of the spirit finding her path. The fact that there was hope for all the lost. 

The two sat for a long time watching the square slowly become less and less crowded. The bonfires slowly dying out. The embers becoming dark and grey. They didn't need to say anything and didn't need to worry about anything. They felt the peace and calm that was unlike any other night before. 

"Can I escort you home miss?" Walker stood and extended a hand again. Alice took it and they walked the empty streets to the cathedral. There were a few sounds from inside that Walker knew must be those that had gotten in to mischief during the night being treated. He didn't want to hold Alice from her rest.

"I guess we are heading our separate ways. I haven't said it properly, but you make that dress look amazing. I don't think there is anyone that could compare in the entire world." The sweet words were all too cliche but had new meaning when Alice heard them from Walker. They were new being said by him. 

"Close your eyes." Alice had a stern tone as she ordered him to close his eyes. Walker did not know how to react to the way she said it and complied. 

The tender feeling on his lips that followed was immediately met with a rush of air and the slam of a door. Walker opened his eyes to find that Alice had rushed inside. He could only wonder if he had actually felt what he felt. 

His mind was muddled by the events of the day and night. He couldn't even walk straight as he came inside the mansion and flopped on to his bed. So much had happened and not all of it could be explained. The world continued to surprise him in the mysterious ways it worked. He always found himself a little lost. 

When he finally drifted off to sleep the image of the family riding a cart to the harvest festival and dancing together took his dreams. There were many that joined them and danced as if they could float and fly. There was a warm and happy aura to the entire area they were in and many of them beckoned for Walker to dance as well. It was fulfilling and peaceful. The joy that could never run out or be lost. The dance of the harvest festival. 

The harvest festival had gone on through the hardships the kingdom had and a bright future had been outlined. There was no reason for anyone to frown as they awoke to find that the streets were cleaner and brighter than before. It was as if the city had been blessed.
