Chapter 157: Combined Runes

Leona's father had fallen overseas and while the entire family mourned, she alone stayed strong. She had too. Her mom was falling to pieces and her brother was like a lost sheep, so she had no choice. We all encounter that at some points in our lives, the point where everyone is relying on you to be strong, even though you feel the weakest you have ever felt. That was how their family was for the longest time. The arrangements with the funeral, his belongings, the paperwork with the army. All of these things combined almost sent her mom over the edge, but luckily Leona was there for her. She held the family together.

Inside though, she felt the pieces fall away one by one as the days turned into weeks, then into months.
