Capítulo 495: Betrayer for Salvation

LERRIN

Lerrin scanned the crowd who were all watching him and Reth, and he swallowed his fear. 

"There is only one way that we can be as one," he said, keeping his voice calm despite having to project to the backs of the crowd. He turned to face the Tree City Anima. "You are right to be concerned. We wolves do move in darkness. And when we do so with good intent, it is helpful to all. But the reason I brought the wolves back was because I saw the darkness within." Then he turned to face the wolves, who were all staring at him with a mix of awe and anger. "When we carry the darkness with us, we do not just do harm to our enemies, we do harm to ourselves."

The clearing was silent. Lerrin could feel his people urging him not to reveal their secrets. He would hold tightly to as many as he could. But the time had come to bring his people back to the Anima and if their secrets were the sacrifice… he would make them.
