章 395: Light and Darkness - Part 13

"As much as I want to keep her here a bit longer, Alicia needs to leave this world now, son," Kali said. She held both Alicia and Zeke's hands, and they could feel her hesitation, as if she didn't want to let go yet. But Kali's eyes were firm and full of conviction. She had the look of a mother willing to do anything to help her child, even if it meant parting forever.

"Alicia, my dear, please listen…" she began, gently pressing Alicia's hand. "I'm sorry that we don't have time left to even chat a bit longer. You have to get out of here as soon as possible. I will help you and Zeke cross dimensions. But once you two are there, Zeke will have to leave you behind. You will stay there until you're cured, while Zeke must return here immediately."

Alicia shifted her gaze to Zeke before she nodded at Kali. "I understand, Mother," she replied.
