Standing there, face-to-face with his best friend, someone who seemed to have gathered every bit of rage and regret they possessed and pointed it directly at him, Adisa took a moment…
'I've long known how merciless this world is, how devoid of hope it has become. But when my Inheritance awakened months ago, any lingering doubt vanished.'
Adisa thought.
'And yet… it's strange. Couldn't fate spare me even a small mercy? Not even one last chance to look back on the past with my childhood best friend before everything ends?
'Inheritance, life, even the air in our lungs, none of it was ever meant for humanity. This world is the Red's dominion. Nothing is beyond its reach. Not the Scarlet Kins. Not our Inheritances. Not even the moon that hangs above us.
'I believed this would be my last option. If my best friend stood beside me, together we could surrender this world to the forces that rightfully claim it.'
