Amnesia

Epilogue

It's been three weeks since Grian's passing.

I still can't move on.

I stare at our bed all day just waiting for him to be there.

To be home when I get here.

I miss him.

I'm alone.

But it doesn't feel like I really am.

I swear I can feel his presence.

But everyday is still the same since then.

I'd wake up alone.

Visit Grian's grave.

Then work all day.

After everything I did to protect him...

I still just can't believe he's gone.

Prison.

Sam.

Attacks.

Amnesia.

Mind Control.

Freezing breath.

The universal sign that a Watcher is near.

Today, I sat at the top of the mountain watching the sun set and trying to imagine Grian sitting next to me.

I felt tears streaming down my face as I watched the sunset completely.

Reminding me of Grian.

It was almost like I could feel him next to me.

Three people died that night with Grian.

We called it The Night of Mourning.

I've always believed in angels.

More so when I met Grian.

We've lost a lot of people because of the Watchers.

All of which we miss dearly.

But for Grian...

Now that he's gone...

Not a day goes by where I don't think about him.

My other three hermits who died that night...

I couldn't revive because I didn't have the power.

That was all Grian.

"Always look for rainbows when it rains," He said, "But at night look for the stars."

"Because one day, I'll be looking down from them at you, watching you live your best life."

I never thought of it as anything when he had first said it.

But now I know.

I still wish he was with me.
