What did pay mean? What was the payment for someone's life? Did it vary with the person who was revived? My first thought was another soul, but would Dusk really take the life of another to get me back? We weren't that close, so I doubt he would go that far.
So, if it wasn't a soul, what else could it be? Money, was it a special item? It made sense, maybe it was an item he got from killing that giant.
But am I sure he even succeeded in defeating that beast after my sacrifice? As much as I'm confident in his ability, there is no way for me to be sure.
So if it wasn't a soul, and probably not an item, what could it be?
As endless possibilities came to mind, from the corner of my eyes, I noticed something in the abyss that normally shouldn't exist.
I turned my head rapidly and faced the glowing eyes, their orange color reminding me of a great fire. Who did they belong to? Were they part of my imagination, or really did exist?
