Shila could only watch in horror as her niece bled to her death in front of her. She couldn't believe that the young woman would do such a thing, especially since she could see in her eyes that she was truly beginning to change. There was reverence in Pinra's eyes whenever she saw her, and for her life to end like this… It was both tragic and confusing.
Still, her worry over her niece was overpowered by her fear of her own son's potential death.
Thankfully, before she could even scream for help, the pair of guards outside had barged in, clearly having heard the commotion as they moved to secure Gilas.
"Is he hurt?!" a guard asked as he knelt down in front of Gilas. "We should move him."
"How about Pinra?!" the other asked, drawing his blade to make sure that the area was safe. "Is she-"
"N-No…" Shila choked out. "I-I don't think she'll be a danger to us… Not anymore…"
