Celestia's POV:
I felt like I got struck by lightning as I heard what my father said. He was right! All those perished warriors will never get their lives back. They can't get a second chance and rise up from their graves. So I don't deserve a second chance too!
"Now tell me, Celestia! How can I give you a second chance when you are responsible for the death of a hundred innocent Faes?"
The rest of them in the court gasped as they realized the truth about me. So far, I was just feeling guilty. Now I was also ashamed to my core.
I was still kneeling in front of my father, and I had my gaze down on the floor. I didn't have the strength to get up from the ground. The dead rock chain that was holding my hands together had wholly sucked out my energy.
If I try now, I can break free from my chains, but I choose to let the restraints win. I don't deserve to be free! I am responsible for the death of innocent people.
