Raze rushed from the courtyard and headed to the main building, thinking of the words spoken by Zon. He had asked him to put his trust in him. Raze started to remember the last time someone had said those words to him in Alterian—one of the few people he could call his friend—and believing in those words had ultimately led to his friend's demise.
There were many times Raze thought back, wondering what if his friend had never gotten involved in his mess, what if he hadn't believed in him and stayed away; maybe there would still be one person left in his life.
This was why it was so hard for Raze to leave Zon. Yet he had ultimately decided to trust those words again.
'I underestimated the Deleter, and I let my anger take over me,' Raze thought. 'Seeing Himmy's head, I wanted to get some payback for him. But the Deleter was slimier than I expected and caused more trouble than I thought... still, I need to head to the Demonic Faction.
