Creation of the corrupted...

Chiron's actions were surprising. But she could see in his eyes that he was serious.

She wanted to refuse, but then she remembered that her entire family was gone. In this world, she was officially genuinely alone. All she had left was Chiron.

If he left, she would have nobody else.

This was a scary thought process.

She had no one except him. And time and time again, he had proven himself to her. Truly, there was no one more reliable than him.

The thought of him leaving if she did not prove to him she was capable was an even scarier feeling that the loss she had just experienced.

One only realized the value of something when one loses it.

More than anything, she really wanted someone to rely on.

Slowly, she took the heart from his hand. It was punctured all over because of her continuous stabbing when she killed her mother.

It bleed continually.
