If I can just snap her out of it.
She may try to kill me, but at least she will be in her right mind.
Salina comes down from the ceiling slightly, and her rot magic starts to swirl around her even more quickly.
I know that the building will fall down around us if I don’t do something soon.
That is when I throw myself into the air, at her, and scoop her up into my arms.
We fall to the ground, and there is nothing I can do to stop our fall, except fall and draw her closer to me so that she doesn’t get hurt.
All I can do is hope, hope, hope that neither of us gets hurt.

SALINA
HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?
How could this be possible?
I don’t know what I am feeling. It could be rage. It could be heartbreak. I don’t know.
The world falls away from me until all I can see is Ocuri’s face.How could he still be alive?
Ocuri Thuvrol is alive, walking on Protheka as if he didn’t cause chaos and destruction.
As if he didn’thurtme. As if he didn’t take my sister away from me.
He is alive, and my sister isn’t.
I want to scream and sob as old grief and new hatred wells up inside me. I become light headed as I step away from Denve.
You’ve stopped breathing. You need to breathe.
You need to breathe!
My skin is prickling, tingling, and I want to scream and tear my skin off. I want to pull my hair out.
I seem to be feeling every emotion at once. And a thought that this isn’t a good thing lingers at the back of my mind as the world falls and falls and falls.
Maybe I am the one falling.
The world becomes dark around me.
Everything is quiet here.
Now I am not seeing Ocuri’s face.
Now I am seeing my sister’s face.
She had the same golden eyes as I did. Her hair was a brighter silver than mine, almost white.
She was rounder than me, softer than me, the opposite of me in every way.
Her magic was slightly weaker, but she didn’t care.
She didn’t want anything except to find love and have a family and make a home for someone.
