I FEEL THE exhaustion wash over me, a cascade of energy accumulated from the tension of the previous moments, during which I can seriously say I saw death in the face. If I had a shred of mental vigor, I would make a list of the absurdities I've witnessed. Shall we talk about Zandeimath and her statement? Going against you is certain death. From the way she looked at me, she understood something about me.
I think it's an exaggeration to believe I'm that strong, and I can't conceive having frightened her. What did she really mean?
"She's gone..." The prince exhales the air accumulated in his lungs. "I've made a mess, no one will be able to forgive me," he murmurs, speaking into the void.
"I've never seen a prince willing to promise his life," I point out to him, but with a hard tone, not wanting to be friendly or open.
Bell remembers it's better to talk to me, as the void won't answer him. His face is full of shadows, torments encrusted on his conscience.
"In short, you don't seem terrible," I say bluntly. It's unclear whether he or I am more awkward. "I saved you because I have vested interests. Try not to waste this opportunity."
From the window, the sun fights for its place in the sky and dissipates the fog: Zandeimath can't return in broad daylight, the danger is averted. She has definitely withdrawn. All's well that ends well... more or less. Will it be enough for the Confessor? In the worst-case scenario, my battle in Ocleodathe only served to make me lose more health and to sacrifice Gazazhel's life needlessly... Gazazhel! Right! What happened to him?
