When You Rely On Physical Strength

You can't always rely on physical strength.

That's what everyone's told me.

But I always thought I'd have my powers.

But now...


I'm powerless.

Only under Xisuma's protection.


He's been helping me through physical therapy to help me gain strength.


But ever since I lost my powers...


I've never been the same.


I can't ever be alone anymore.

They're afraid I'll pass out.

Or worse.


I always have Xisuma though which is nice. He's helped me through every step.

Every breath.

Every beat of my heart.


He's always there.

Where ever I turn.


I can tell he's scared.

More so than I am.


I know I'm weaker than I used to be.

I'm still getting used to having the weight of a normal player.


It's only been a few days.

I'm recovering.

I'm learning to pace myself.


I'm learning to be human.


It feels nice.

But it doesn't.


It's like a burden off my shoulders.

But I still worry.


It's as if all my problems disappeared in one breath.

But they're still on my mind.


Nothing I say or do can keep Xisuma away from me.

He refuses to leave me alone.

It's actually rather frightening how scared he is.


He knows that people are coming for us.

For him.

For me.


It doesn't matter.


Watcher or not.

Someone will always be after me.


Xisuma has VoidWalkers after him.

Those are scary.


Glowing eyes with no pupils.

It seems like they have no body.


But despite his problems...


He's still here.


He still loves.


He's still calm.


He's still with me.


That is...












Until he wasn't.
