Sage was taken aback as the tails gradually turned black, until all nine of them were completely black.
She wished she could leave the room and meet Cyrus, but what difference would it make? She couldn't change his dark state.
"You do not scare me!" she exclaimed after taking a deep breath. Then she carried the nine tailed fox to the bed and gently placed the nail tailed fox on it.
Sighing, she sat beside him.
"Are you the one who triggering his dark state?" Sage asked slowly and sniffed as she took one of the scrolls, lightly clutching it.
"To be honest with you, I am..." She paused with a small laugh and sniffed again, despite the absence of tears in her eyes. "I am terrified of Cyrus's dark state. My heart breaks when he looks at me so coldly and emotionlessly. I really wish I could undo that state of his, but I know it is impossible."
While he stared at her blankly, she placed the scroll on her lap and caressed the soft fur of Snowflake.
