Waddle sighed, leaning back, his eyes focused somewhere far away. "Yeah, you and me both, man. I've lost a few close people since coming here. It's been tough. Other than one person, I don't have much reason to go back to Earth—maybe just some closure, and a rematch against Erebos."
Ty's brow furrowed in surprise, his gaze snapping to Waddle. "Wait, you haven't seen him again since he took your soul?"
Waddle shook his head. "Nope. Haven't heard anyone even mention his name since I got here."
"Then why did you assume I'd know who he was when we first met?" Ty asked, genuinely curious.
Waddle chuckled, though it was humorless. "Just the way you talked, I suppose. You had that look—someone who's been through hell, same as me."
