The next morning, Ruri and the whale returned peacefully to the camp. Ruri held their hands while silently absorbing all the dense information that had been revealed to her. She didn't utter a word or judge, even knowing that her master was far from being someone good and pure.
He had taken the lives of so many people that she would have difficulty finding an equivalent throughout her entire existence. She had heard him say this to Almin when they left, but it was challenging to truly comprehend. But after they told her in such detail, she finally understood... an entire universe was completely massacred by them...
However, she quickly understood that the past could not be changed. Currently, they were committed to saving lives and building a different path. Ruri could clearly feel the pain of guilt haunting them, but she was convinced that one day they would redeem their sins.
