*huff* *wheeze* This incline's gettin' steep. MC, you better not drop Hornton's egg. |
| It's so heavy... | Help me out here, Grim! |
 |
Are you okay, MC? I don't see anyone pursuing us. I could carry the egg for a bit. |
|
You'd haul Lilia AND the egg?! Do you have infinite stamina or somethin'? |
|
I do feel tired. But it's strange... There's energy surging inside me. Maybe it's because this reminds me of the day I learned Father and I weren't related by blood. |
|
Oh? |
|
I was so devastated, I fled the house. |
|
It was on a stormy night just like this one. The woods were dark, and the weather was relentless. I couldn't progress forward, and I couldn't go back home. I was at a complete loss and just started crying. But Father came looking for me, and he carried me on his back all the way home, even as I cried. |
|
So...maybe I feel a little inordinately happy about the situation we're in. The fact that, now, I can carry him on my back. |
|
This time, I'll be the one to take Father home. |
