There was only silence in the air.
A massive battle that destroyed a majority of the fortress just ended, but those who were contained within didn't show any emotion.
As Tyler, Synth, and Ash walked through the crowd and provided healing pills to the victims, they were only met with dull eyes and hopelessness.
'No, this is worse than hopelessness. They no longer have life in them even if they're alive.'
Hopelessness was a feeling akin to despair. The fact that it could be felt meant that the possibility of a spark of hope appearing still existed, since emotion still ran rampant within the mind.
But when even hopelessness was lost…
'They can't be saved.' Tyler realized.
Even if these people were saved, nothing would change. They wouldn't regain their minds. They'd been broken to that extent.
Ash shivered as she walked through the aisles of bodies.
