“Hey darling, what's wrong?” she asked, upset.
Miron answered weakly.
“I don't think I went too far. But maybe, something went wrong more than I thought. And once again, all force has deserted my body.”
“It has always been like this, especially since he released his powers." Kei intervened, kneeling next to him, his face smeared with mud, moved. “Every time he unleashes a gigantic power, he loses all his energy and faints. But lately, it hasn't been as bad. I don't know what's changed. What brought that weakness back."
Clarine looked at him for a moment, her eyes full of tears.
“It was like when he saved you both from that place you hated so much.”
Kei nodded his head, his eyes also foggy.
“Yes, he did. And I feel like it's been a hundred years already. So much has passed since then. So much that makes you forget despite the dark depths of memories.”
The witch stroked her blond boy's silver hair for a moment before looking down at Miron again.
