"You are not John Falken."
Rui's eyes widened with horror.
"You were never John Falken."
His expression flared with despair.
"You are just someone who was brainwashed and hypnotized to believe that you are John Falken."
He gritted his teeth as he clenched his fists.
"Who are you?"
"NO!" Rui bellowed as he ran away from the memory with an expression of grave severity. "This is just a dream. Just a nightmare. None of this is real. I just need to wake up and I'm sure that my mother will be there."
"Your mother is dead."
"No, she's not." Rui gritted his teeth. "She never died. She's still alive! She's still—"
He choked with emotions he didn't understand.
An extraordinarily deep grief gripped his heart.
The grief of losing a loved one.
The grief of losing a mother.
His breathing grew strained as despair and misery plagued his heart.
