[: Daniel POV :]
Regaining consciousness, I found myself surrounded by a clear sky yet its expanse marred only by the tears streaming down my face.
Lying on the ground, doubt and confusion flooded my thoughts.
Why?
Why did the monsters strip me of everything I held dear?
Unable to fathom the reasons behind their relentless attacks, a heavy weight settled upon my soul.
It crushed my heart apart, however, in that moment, I realized I couldn't remain stagnant.
The pit of depression and despair had consumed me entirely.
But instead, it ignited a force within me - a seething hatred towards these monstrous beings.
The depth of my anger surged, and I yearned to obliterate every last one of them, not even sparing their ashes.
A few minutes passed, and I rose with a face contorted by fiery rage.
My heart lay in ruins as I gazed upon Areia and Lye's lifeless bodies.
