[The Shattered Fragment has reached its conclusion.]
[You will be pulled out of the Fragmented Memory.]
Shatter—!
The scene splintered like fragile glass, countless shards cascading into nothingness. As the fragmented memory collapsed, the world around me began to shift and retract, dissolving back into its original form.
In the blink of an eye, I was standing in Victoria's room once more.
I blinked.
The weight of what I had just seen pressed down on me, and I stumbled to the bed, collapsing onto its soft surface. My mind whirled, struggling to piece together the truth that had just been revealed.
Julian.
He was the killer.
The realization hit harder than I expected.
So it really was him…
I had my suspicions, of course, but actually hearing if from his mouth left me stunned. Shocked, even.
He killed Reginald. But why? Rage? A fit of uncontrollable emotion?
