Summary
‘You do know what happened to him, though, don’t you?’ Enjin said, tightening his jaw. ‘You just don’t wanna say it.’
Eishia blew a strand of hair from her face. She fixed down her dress, visibly unnerved from the accusation. Then, she inhaled a short breath and turned to face him properly.
‘I do know,’ she murmured. Her eyes, usually so bright in their pink, seemed haunted, derelict, and bewildered all at once. ‘He got hurt, Enjin. Really, really bad.’
Enjin narrowed his eyes. ‘How bad, Eishia?’
She nibbled her lower lip, desperate for an escape from the conversation, but Enjin was through with the damn enigma of it all. Even so, he knew he was being too forward.
Perhaps in place for someone else that wasn’t there to do it.
Eishia dropped her head. ‘Down there, bad.’
And there it was.
Rudo was, in fact, an anomaly. He was capable, defiant, brave, empathetic, often blinded by his own rage - but most of all, a child.
And there would always come a time when the Ground, and the things in it, got too big - even for him.
This, was one of those times.
