She looked around in the vicinity to check for the signs of the portal. But she couldn't see any trace of it. It had disappeared for good.
Mirah forced herself up on all her fours and dragged herself to the last location where she had seen that shadow portal.
And in her desperate attempt, she began clawing out the dirt and digging a hole in the ground.
"Master… stay right there. I'm coming to get you," she was shouting and sniffling. Her eyes were getting blurry with the tears.
She was angry at herself for not being able to protect her master when Lilith had been generous enough to welcome her into the mansion and treated her like a family rather than a mere servant.
Mirah kept on digging until she broke one of her claws while trying to dig through rock.
She slammed her fist on the rock and lowered her head in shame. "I'm sorry, Mistress. I couldn't protect Young Master." And she silently shed her tears.
