This was the first time Aiwass had seen Isabel cry, shedding tears.
But in her crying, there was neither sadness nor fear. Instead, Aiwass could sense a kind of reassurance and warmth.
— The first thing that came to Aiwass's mind was the diary Isabel had once shown him.
In that diary, passed down by members of the Du Lac family to record the traces of their lives, the first two sentences written by a nine-year-old Isabel were:
"I am so scared..."
"Daddy said, I can cry..."
Back then, Isabel, immersed in the fear of death, was so lonely and frightened. She had no idea that Queen Sofia, the person she most wanted to stay, was actually her. From Isabel's perspective, the gradually dying relatives were like a blade hanging in the air, ready to fall at any moment.
She couldn't smile no matter what.
— So she could only cry.
Latterly, even the "Daddy" mentioned in the diary silently fled from Glass Island. Isabel was left utterly alone.
