It was not right that anyone would announce the death of people in such a casual manner as if they were ordering groceries.
Commander Rel did not move at first, and a small part of me hoped that she could see that what emerged from the mouth of Rex was madness, but her hesitation did not last for long as she nodded her head.
I had thought she would refuse, for one second there I had actually let myself believe that the woman who had organized the retreats in every previous loop, who had stood at the northern line until her squad fell behind her… that woman would not raise her hands against three Acolytes she had been sent to escort.
Then, when I saw that acknowledgment from her, I think my world got a bit darker.
She began walking towards us in a calm manner, not even bothering to draw her staff. I mean, why would she do that? It is not as if we were any threat to her, right?
