"No. As soon as Nyka is done, we are going to Zeska." Solus replied.
"Isn't it one of the cities occupied by Thrud's army?" Tista tried to sound casual but Solus could hear the eggshells creaking under her feet.
"Yes, it's one of the cities Lith and I stormed in the attempt to rescue Phloria. It's the reason we are going there. I want to see how things are and make up for the destruction we caused. I owe it to all the people I've killed."
"Are you sure? It doesn't sound like a vacation to me." Tista countered soberly.
"I never said that this is a vacation." Solus shook her head. "This is a trip to learn who I am and what I want. The first step to do that is to take responsibility for what I did and face the consequences."
"Why didn't you do this with Lith? I mean, he's responsible as much as you." Tista asked.
