After saying this, she resumed her steps, quickly catching up to her Big Brother Lucian. [Lily would have all the time in the world to do anything she wanted!]
In response, Lucian let out a long sigh.
[You're right, Lily, you would have all the time in the world to do whatever you wanted. But it's not as simple as that. Eternal life isn't just about endless time. Watching everything around you change while you stay the same. Friends, family… even entire worlds come and go… while you continue on.] He paused for a moment, as the memories of solitude went past in his mind. It was a mere brief moment, but it was more than enough to clench his heart. [You become a witness to countless stories… and even star in many, but even those stories will be forgotten. Soon, you'll be desensitized… nothing will matter.]
Hearing this, Lily's eyes widened in pure disbelief before tears welled in her eyes. As soon as they appeared, they slid down her beautiful face.
