Syn was not the type of person to wilt under pressure. Unless it was her own mental barrier, her very own lacking wearing her down on the inside, externalities had a tough time having any type of effect. Yet the Neutral Grounds...they made her uneasy. Wish was not at her side, because the area's poisonous effects of neutralizing powers would possibly destroy them. So Syn was alone. She was accustomed to traveling alone and venturing into dangerous places without anyone by her side. Although of recent she had grown a bit used to the presence of Wish, they were not glued next to each other. Often parting ways was the healthiest way to ensure they did not become too irritable with each other.
Therefore, it was not only the lack of Wish that made her spine chill. Combined with the effects the Neutral Grounds had on her own magic, it was safe to say that this part of Fiore was not meant for mages like herself. There had been a time before she knew the joys and usefulness of such power. The Neutral Grounds, in part, reminded her of that. Since those days had been so long ago, she did not have any hostile sensations associated with the memories. They were simply how it had used to be.
