I wanted to talk with Mia. Have a proper discussion during which I would reveal the details about my past that I omitted during our earlier conversations. Bring her fully up to speed in regards to my past life.
Then, I would love to hear her opinion on the problems and questions that I struggled to answer myself.
All of that was a simple desire of mine, coupled with my need to spend some time alone with her, borne out of the heated atmosphere of the recent fight and its violent outcome.
I wanted to make all of that happen right away… but I couldn't.
"They really can't do much unsupervised," I muttered when I turned around, a mere moment after giving the otherworldly cultivators their orders.
They were supposed to count and then gather the deceased, get rid of all the fires, and map out all the devastation that came due to the attack.
