Where did it all go wrong? When she accepted this mission with the others?
When she met Alice? When Alice demonstrated her power?
Ellie didn't know.
All she could think about was death and the inevitability of it. The gap between the talented and talentless.
The power difference despite having more Sigils.
She wished she had never met Alice nor asked her to demonstrate her strength. If she had never met her, she wouldn't have understood the meagre strength she possessed and lived in blissful ignorance.
If it wasn't for Alice, she wouldn't have fumbled against beasts that would've been easy kills for them.
'Where did it all go wrong?' Ellie asked herself once more as tears formed around her eyes.
Reaching for her arrow, she desperately pulled it back before letting go.
However, her aim was off.
