*Modern day
Location: Realm of the Watchers
All the other watchers had already left, but Elixir remained. Lemei held him for a few minutes, needing to discuss some mattress they couldn't talk about openly with the others.
The head of the watchers waited for Elixir to start the discussion, her eyes resting on him. Elixir kept his distance. He knew exactly what Lemei wanted to hear.
"She would overcome it, I promise you." Elixir assured her, trying to lace confidence on his words. But even when he had said it out loud, he knew it was far from the truth.
"What happens if she loses sight of who she was before you gave her a second chance to live?"
Elixir bowed his head.
"I will see to it that she won't."
Lemei folded her hands on the table. She took a deep breath.
"I'm not convinced. But I'm giving you a chance to prove me wrong. However, if things don't work out, I will have no choice but to take back what has been given."
