Summary
Nothing about the small cell of rock and metal is comfortable, but Rumi rests her head against the wall and resists the urge to lay a hand on Jinu’s face. He’s quiet, but not dead. Gwi-Ma can’t kill his leverage, but Rumi doesn’t like the alternative any more.
It’s no surprise that the demon king has a deal for her: break the Honmoon she worked so hard to create, or Jinu suffers. There is no good choice, no winning here. Jinu however, insisted on which she should choose. To hold firm, no matter what he does to him. Said that Gwi-Ma would do so much worse if she gave him a path to the surface.
She knows he’s right. It doesn’t make it any easier.
Rumi doesn’t think she’ll ever get his screams out of her head.
(Or Gwi-Ma wants Rumi to use her power to break the Honmoon. If threat of torture won’t sway her resolve, maybe it will if it’s Jinu. However, no matter what happens, Jinu continuously tells her to be strong and hold out.
Rumi doesn’t know how much longer she can last.)
