Bab 511: Sacred Arrangement

A silence between Kieran and the Sacred Inheritor ensued. 

There was no relationship between them, yet Kieran asked for help. It wasn't completely unthinkable, though. Every Inheritor understood there would come a time when they would be forced to work as one. 

Still, from what Kieran gathered of the Sacred Inheritor's personality, she didn't seem like a person keen on rendering selfless aid. She had said it before — her individual needs took precedence when it came to herself or others.

But, this was not a situation they could unravel alone. It required teamwork, and that understanding became increasingly clear the longer Kieran remained inside the Trial.

The incident with the Bloodwight was the gravest catalyst of his current understanding. He may bear the most tremendous burden, but it was a shared task.
