"I'm tired of running. For once, I am in perfect agreement with the one who so desires to capture me and will do my damage. It is time for me to face and fight."
Zion regarded Castellian with hesitation and pain, who had turned to its enemy and stared at him with strength and defiance.
Then Zion turned to the mercenary and studied him well.
