I had to hide within my other memories to regain my temper and focus. My hands couldn't stop shaking and my emotions were making a turmoil in my head. I felt a desperation and a panic I hadn't felt in a long time, and now, Irina wasn't there to help me.
My tears were threatening to come out like rain and I had to close my eyes strongly to stop them. I am a tough woman, I am a being of powerful abilities that had killed men, that had drunk blood from a dragon and from many other creatures, that had battled shadows and nightmares enough to bring down any strong man. I can't be so weak against a mere illusion.
I won't let that thing manipulate me. There must be an explanation for everything, that damn shadow is shaping my thoughts, he is only making me see what he wants me to see. There must be something else in between those scenes.
