"Are you sure you want to go back to Pandora's realm alone?"
"Yes I want to be stronger, if that means going to a place of danger alone then so be it"

I projected all the resolve that I could muster out onto Darwin.
Seeing my resolve, Darwin sighed and gave me a pat on the head then made to leave. Though before he left I dashed over to him and stole a kiss.
My last sight of my Darling was of his smile and the small shake of his head at my attitude.

The world went dark again, the vision that I had worked to obtain with Darwin gone as a realms distance separated us.
Gone was the world of colors that I had grown so used to in that short amount of time and back was the creeping darkness that showed nothing but the souls of the damned.
Even now I could see the fading souls approaching me.
It seemed like I was in a hotspot of veiled guards as five of them approached me.
