GAHRYE
Gahrye couldn't stop looking behind him, back towards Elia, as they walked through the house to find something Kalle called the kar.
"I'm not sure I should—"
"This is the only way we can find what we need to help her, Gahrye. Come on," Kalle said, tugging on his sleeve. His very crisp, very uncomfortable sleeve.
And so, he found himself walking out of the "Big House" as the Guardians called it, with the woman who set him aflame, thrown together by both duty and desire.
He couldn't decide whether to laugh, or weep.
