*Sits among the rubble of Butterfly Hall in deep thought.* (What was home is now gone...but strangely enough, the loss I feel is more akin to numbness more than anything.) *She brings out a small bottle, having visited her mother the other day. There were no more tears in her eyes when she had told her mother that Gunther was gone and never coming back. But the pain had been there.* (I wonder if...closing myself off is worth the price...) *The bottle was unmarked, the contents looking like water. But her mother had told her what was inside. Not poison, no...if she would drink this, she would still live. But then she would never be the same ever again. If she drank from the bottle, there would be no turning back. Then, she remembered her talk with Talon.* (Happiness...for a fleeting moment, I thought I could be that way again. But...with this, I can focus more on my duty as leader. Besides...who would want me anyway...) *Ember still stares at the bottle, still undecided. The contents of the bottle lay still, the last threshold to throwing away the rest of what made her human.*
