"So," Veon broke the silence. "Tyler has been here for quite some time already," he asked and Sheloah nodded.
"When he arrived here, he was hurt so I did my best to treat him," she said and Veon sighed.
"It's because of your stubbornness," Veon commented and Sheloah pouted at him. "Because of your actions, people get dragged in with you," he added and Sheloah felt ashamed as she looked at the floor.
She thought that what Veon said was right. If it weren't for her decision, none of this wouldn't have happened. Tyler wouldn't have been hurt, and Veon wouldn't have been here and would have been recuperating instead.
'If I didn't go, I wouldn't have met Shannara, right? And… Veon wouldn't have met her again, either…'
Sheloah was quite surprised to what she had thought of so she slapped herself out of the blue, surprising the three people with her. She didn't want to have such thoughts so she impulsively hurt herself to wake her up.
