In the training hall, a girl was currently training herself to limits her body could handle. She was constantly pushing herself in the gravity 10 times more than what the world outside had.
The pressure on her body was so much that even taking a single breath was getting hard, her heart couldn't even pump enough blood for her body to hold on, her lungs feeling constricted as if someone had squeezed every last bit of air from it. Soon her mind started getting foggy as it failed to do its job.
'Is this how you felt, master?'
The face of her master, whom she was bound as a shadow, came to her mind. The one who gave everything to her, and the one whom she failed to protect.
The guilt she felt over his death could never go away, no matter how many times she punished herself.
She would've taken her life on the very next day, if her life was hers to take. But she couldn't. Her fate wasn't so nice to her this time.
