"….."
I thought about getting on my knees, but decided against it. The floor looked a little uncomfortable.
'Alright, I'm ready.'
My arm pulsed shortly after, and two figures appeared before me. They stood in silence, staring at me without saying a single thing.
The silence that took over the space felt suffocating, and unable to bear it for any longer, I started to speak.
"…Sacrifices were made."
I paused, covering my mouth while keeping my hand from trembling. I wanted to show that I truly meant my words.
"Two innocent souls were hurt under my watch. The thought has been haunting me ever since it happened, and I am struggling to get some sleep while thinking about all the suffering they went through, and while I can't rewrite the past, I can write the future."
Slowly, I raised my head to look at Mirelle and the Dreamwalker. My hand trembled further as I stood up and looked at Mirelle.
Gently bending over, I smiled warmly and extended my hand to pat her head.
