บท 154: Sharing The Fire Would Never Be Enough

"So you don't get mixed up here?" Leo asked.

"It is so that I don't have to remember watching my friends and loved ones die or be killed in front of me. It's so I don't have to remember all the times that I failed, was tortured to death, or burned alive. You all have no idea what I have to do sometimes, but not even the Guides can erase everything. Leo, I just want to have someone like you to come to at the end of each run to hold and love as you do with Capricorn," I said with a heavy sigh. "I just want to have someone, and that person is Tallia."

Silence fell between us, and only the crashing water that sprinkled lightly on my shoulder made noise.

This was the first time that I had opened up to anyone about how I really felt, and it felt good, but that didn't change things. Kaedon told me that the only way that I could get Tallia up to Yaggisdral was to do as the three Guides, Hellios, Angelios, and Apocolios, had asked.
