“Yes,” Lucresia glanced at Duncan, nodded subtly, and said, “After being lost in the fog for three days, I saw a silhouette that looked very much like the Homeloss pass by in the distance through the dense mist. As it passed, the fog seemed to momentarily thin out, revealing the appearance of normal sea areas. I…hesitated for a long time, but had no other choice at the time, so I summoned the courage to head toward the silhouette. But it suddenly disappeared as the Brilliant Starship was about to approach… Then, I returned to normal waters.”

After Lucresia finished speaking, she looked at Duncan with an odd gaze for several seconds before adding, “That was in 1862. You have fallen into Subspace for sixty-two years.”

Duncan was silent for a while, turning his body quietly to look out at the distant sea, disguising the change in his eyes as he calmly said, “I don’t remember this.”

“I know,” Lucresia nodded, “So I have been wondering whether what I saw was really the Homeloss, or just a hallucination from exhaustion, or perhaps… another ‘special phenomenon’ of the Frontier.”

“That was my first and only time crossing the limit of ‘Six Nautical Miles.’ After that, I never ventured into such deep places again, nor have I seen similar ‘phantoms’.”

Duncan stayed silent, his thoughts tumbling.

From Lucresia’s story, he truly realized for the first time how strange and dangerous the boundless mist known as the “Civilization Frontier” and “Eternal Veil” was. Yet, it sparked countless conjectures and… curiosity about the baffling phenomena that appeared in that mist.

It was clear that entering that fog came with great risk. Even a seasoned Frontier Scholar and grand explorer like Lucresia nearly became permanently lost in that veil under prepared circumstances. And even within the relatively “safe” inner areas of Six Nautical Miles, various peculiar and dangerous “entities” and phenomena could claim the life of an explorer at any time.

But those peculiar and dangerous “entities” had precisely captured Duncan’s interest.
