Cassarae's heart skipped a beat. For a moment, she couldn't help but have the thought… was that why Sylas was feeling better all of a sudden?
If that was the case, it would hurt a great deal. She knew that the reason Sylas was spiraling was because of Nosphaleen, but she also knew enough about him to know that that wasn't the entire picture. In fact, it was probably only a small piece of it.
But when she remembered this, she slowly exhaled and nodded.
Sylas wasn't the sort to act like this. No, the only things that could move him so far off his baseline were realizations about himself.
Nosphaleen's death had made him look in the mirror in ways that he didn't want to, but now he didn't have to do this. He was sharper than before not because she was alive, but maybe he had even figured out the fact that she was alive at all because he was sharper.
A smile spread across Cassarae's face.
"What happened? How is that possible?" she finally asked.
