Death (1)

"Here, the Hanged Man."

Azrael's hand trembled as he handed the card to Dorothy. Selene and Edgar, who are behind him, remained silent.

Dorothy's eyes widened slightly the moment she noticed that Raphael was not with them, and that they returned quite early than she expected.

Seeing the situation, a frustrating sigh escaped Gael's lips as he realized the unfortunate situation with clenched fists.

Dorothy continued to stay silent as she received the Hanged Man card without saying any other words.

She barely recovered from Isla's death, and all she could do was being in denial.

"... And this."

Azrael took out a piece of paper, written by Raphael before he was sacrificed in exchange for the card.

Dorothy's eyes darkened as her eyes met the paper.

"... It's from Raphael, I hope you read it."

This time, Azrael didn't say words of comfort, because he knows how pointless it'll be.
