He still couldn’t believe his eyes. Here Bonana stood, in a place so far beyond the scope of everything he knew, standing in a field of glowing flowers– the same flowers that had been haunting him on this leg of his unending journey. Surrounding him were the people he trusted more than anything in the world, none worse for wear, as if shortly before their souls didn’t hang in limbo, waiting for him to make such a heavy decision.

He nearly squandered it, that trust they had in him. He almost ruined everything with his bullheadedness, his refusal to see what had been right in front of him this whole time. But now was not the time to dwell on near-mistakes. He was so happy, he wanted to cry. He wanted to hug everyone and personally tell them what they meant to him. He started with Sasabe, the one who had been with him the longest of any. He immediately pulled her into a tight squeeze, trying his best to hold his sobbing.

“I’m, ah, sorry for prodding you like that,” she sheepishly returned the hug, “but I’m glad you sorted it out.”

“Feels like you know me better than I do, sometimes,” he said as they let go, their arms lingering on each others’.“Heh,” she was looking him up and down, “I have to say, I think this is a much better look on you.”

“Oh, right, yes,” he did a half-hearted twirl to show off his new outfit; it had a light blue coat similar to Alphinaud’s, but the metals were golden, the pendant on the front bearing red jewels. The gloves were white and slotted perfectly with the ends of the sleeves, metal embellishments matching, the pants similarly bearing a stripe of golden embroidery down each side, and the boots were unambiguously Sharlayan in their practical design, “Tataru gifted it to me, right before we left.”

“Of course she did,” she beamed.

Bonana turned to O’ranje, who was pretending to look away from him.

“And…you are okay?”

“Hm? Oh,” she perked her ears up at him, “yes, of course! I’m very glad you’re okay.”

“That’s not-,” he furled his brow, “I was worried when that phantom attacked-”

“It is a knight’s duty to protect their charge,” she interrupted, smiling brightly,  “everything I did was my own decision. And…it’s good to see you well.”

“Well, I suppose we can talk more about it later…”

“Kill them,” Calyx coldly ordered as he continued to conduct his pet primal with surgical precision. The Necron obediently wielded its powers of darkness to overpower and overwhelm the Scions and their companions. It barraged them with beams of aether and manifestations of dead, icy hands. On another day this threat would have felt the same as any other they’ve faced before, but as the battle wore on their point of weakness became clearer and clearer.

Bonana’s confidence had all but waned as he struggled to find his footing. The first hit he took set his whole body ablaze, which in turn made it harder to focus on casting his spells. Y’shtola and Alphinaud had his back with their healing, but it still felt bad when he mistimed and miscalculated the use of his barriers. One mistake led to another, and each unmitigated attack left the whole party worse for wear.

Though he had never formally sworn to the sage’s oath, he still felt bound to its ideals. Or perhaps he felt bound to the years he spent having it drilled into his head it was his solitary duty to uphold the health of others. How could you let this happen, he thought, you’re failing them.

The true fear settled in as soon as Alphinaud hit the floor unconscious, Y’shtola not long after. Alisaie, Grammy, Sphene, one by one they all succumbed to their injuries. It’s all your fault. Every muscle in his body ached, screaming for him to collapse, yet he stubbornly continued to shield who he could. Soon enough the only ones remaining were him, G’raha and Wuk Lamat. If only I can hold out a little longer…“You will die for me now,” Calyx proclaimed, and in response Necron began channeling aether that fell from the sky like blackened pitch. It coalesced into an endless amount of arms, aggressively grabbing and pulling at the three of them. Unfortunately, the other two finally caved in to their injuries, and Bonana was unable to stave the arms off before the spell completed. “Surely you, of all people, understand how futile all of this is,” the Endless taunted as he was pulled under by a deluge of sickly aether.

Then, Bonana found himself floating in darkness. Pure, endless, suffocating darkness. Before he could catch his breath, he was assaulted by more of those hands flying out from the abyss. They grabbed at his arms, his legs, even his hair, tugging and pulling him every which way, threatening to rip him apart.

“Stop! Let go!” he yelled. He screamed. He kicked and he punched and he thrashed and thrashed as he became acutely aware of how much pain he was in. Everything hurt. Everything hurt. Everything had been hurting for weeks on end, months, even. Ever since that lightning strike. No, longer than that. He’d been hurting for a very long time, it made him sick to think about it. He didn’t want to think about it. He wanted to curl up into a tight little ball and never think about it again. Go deeper. He did curl into himself, as an aetheric barrier began to form around him, its swirled purple surface repelling the hands from touching him.

What am I still fighting for? he wondered, Why shouldn’t I give in?
