"Your scars...they are violent" he asked as he gently washed her broken body. Her naked back showed an arrangement of old and new scars, mixed with fresh bruises and tender wounds. He studied two of the larger scars on her back carefully. They were old, almost invisible to the naked eye. She said nothing. He continued asking his questions. "What are they from?" Still silence. He continued to wash her, his hand moving over the ancient runes tattooed over her body. "what do they mean?" He knew there is magic in them, but he was unfamiliar with it, a feeling he is not used to. "Damn it, talk to me!" he demands. "Who did this to you?" She sighed, turns her head slowly and glanced at him from over her shoulder "man" she said quietly. Humans? He was confused, he knew all the magics of man and didn't recognize this one.

The darkness of the past catches up to the present and looms over the future. The now-grown undead god meets someone from his past for the last time in his infinite life. An ancient artifact that unlocks a hidden ability comes into his possession and will stay with him throughout his infinite life.

Not with these people._ Glancing around the table, he saw that everyone was looking at him, overtly and covertly, watching and waiting for his reaction. ... The young god stood up in excitement. _It just talked to me! I'm talking to it! This is so weird. What else can I ask it?_ ... _What should I say? I should say something, right?_ "Umm... Hi!" he managed to say. He stopped himself from wincing at his awkward greeting as he felt every eye in the room on him and maintained a casual and relaxed facade. _'Hi'? Really? After not seeing her for so long, all you can say is 'Hi!'? Say something else._ "I came here to see you." _No, idiot. Say something less obvious._ "And, uhh, talk to you." _What's wrong with you, self?_ ... "I don't know. I don't really know what to do anymore. I've done terrible things to him but I don't know anymore if I did the right thing."
