Sekani looked like he was a child again and had done something he shouldn't have, about to get the punishment of his life.
"Uh yeah, I'm so sorry Nikolai. I know you wanted to do it yourself." A part of him wasn't sorry, he felt himself shift when he felt the life drain out of him. He didn't want that for someone as young as Nikolai.
Nikolai could barely see in his right eye, if he said he wasn't disappointed that he wasn't the one to drain the life out of his father he would be lying. But he couldn't blame Sekani for this, it was his own weakness that made him unable to finish what he started.
With much difficulty he got up from his sitting position and walked up to Sekani limping as he did so.
"Thank you, thank you for helping me, thank you for keeping me alive." He said extending his hand, revenge was important to him sure but he'd already decided that he wanted to live.
