Lore:

After the fight with Scarlet in Eenah, Quartzone left the volcanic citadel and met Chalcelle at the foot of the mountain, still thinking about that last message Scarlet left him. The lava girl also seemed to... know him? Quartzone already realized that he had lost all his memories from before the moment he woke up in Gaia. However, the feeling of negativity that haunted Quartzone's mind was not as hurtful now. Maybe that giant tree's advice was helpful after all and the Scarf Hero had to look for answers about himself to find peace?

- It was about time you came back, wasn't it? - Chalcelle was as rude to him as usual, but Quartzone didn't really mind it.

- I'm sorry, it was something that for some reason I felt I had to do on my own... I hope you didn't get really bored. - Quartzone smiled nervously and tried to avoid looking at her eyes.

- In fact, you are really lucky that I am with you on this. So I decided to search for more information about the kingdom and yourself while you were up there. The people of Crystallia aren't really going to tell us anything, but it looks like there's someone called "Cyan", a kind of legendary warrior that wouldn't mind to give us information. They say we'll find him at the top of the Neegis mountains.

- Why are you helping me so much with this if you barely know me?

- I do it for myself, I am tired of being in the same place all the time. Fairy Dust Forest is beautiful but sometimes you just want to discover more. - Quartzone nodded silently.

After a long while wandering through Crystallia's valleys, rivers and forests, they arrived at Neegis, the current goal in their adventure. What they found there was odd from Quartzone's perspective. It looked exactly like Eenah, but at the same time it looked the exact opposite. Driven by the curiosity, Quartzone and Chalcelle crossed the gates to what looked like a citadel similar to the volcanic mountain one. The streets were silent and empty, but they still felt observed. Looking throught the windows, they noticed that they were being followed by the eyes of a lot of penguins.

Once they got to the main square of the citadel, they saw a penguin with a grey scarf who was standing in front of a fountain, staring at the frozen water.

- Hey there! - Quartzone said. - The penguin looked at him without a clear emotion. Anyways, as soon as he saw the bear's scarf, his eyes seemed to open a bit more. - We are looking for Cyan! We need to talk to him.

The penguin didn't talk back to them, instead he just made a sign with his hand to tell them to follow him. They arrived to a big iceberg where a boy with blue hair and a white smoking stood looking at the sun, he looked worried about something. The penguin met him and hugged him. Cyan spun around to look at our heroes.

- Information has a price. - He said. - Show us you are worthy. - They adopted a battle pose.

After dodging a complete snowflake storm Cyan shot at them, he hummed. He didn't look like he likes to fight.

- If you want responses... You need to visit the capital. The source... Travel to Mooth, center of Crystallia, and go to the kingdom's castle. At the end of the day, that place is your home, Scarf Bear. I don't think you'll have problems to enter. - He looked at the tiny penguin now. Please accompany them to the citadel gates now, Pinkee. - The penguin nodded and did as Cyan told him so.

At the gate, the penguin looked at Quartzone and Chalcelle.

- Good luck with your mother. - He said to Quartzone. And looked now at the ribbon girl. - Take care of him, I don't think he will be able to handle this on his own. You might have to protect him on your own at some point. - He now said to Chalcelle.

They then left Neegis and started their way to Mooth, the capital.
