[ He'd had her soul, after all. In his hands, kept close, at all times. Silco had hid her away, like a secret. Like something precious and special, all the while escalating the war over and over again. It had felt like an open wound, sharp and digging in. The reminder that if he lost, if he lost, then she was gone.
The time here had dulled it. The pain. The knowledge that she was alive moreso. He'd believed she was dead. She was not dead.
Did that make the wound heal faster, like a salve? Knowing that she was alive? He hadn't even known how β now he does, and it's that miracle that makes the undercity strong, keeps his eye useful, it's all because of shimmer. ]
Allies. Yes, I suppose I do. [ He never would have thought Geto would lift a finger, when they first met, but perhaps their shared... circumstances... well. He would consider Geto someone he would call, yes. ]
I find it funny, you know? It is a rarity, where I am from.
[ Doubly so, when the last "ally" he had, had decided to try and drown him in a river. ]
