Helios, one day a little girl looked at you for minutes, remember that day? Shame on you if you don't remember. That girl who looked at you for minutes was blind, Helios. Unlike everyone who ran away from you, she turned her cold face on you. She couldn't see you, but she could feel, you know, what good is it to see something when you can't feel it?

Without waiting for Killian, I walked away from the church and made my way to the palace. I waited for Killian to come after me or call out to me, but there was nothing of his presence around me. It was clear that he wanted to leave me alone with my broken heart. So how correct was this move? After all, I was still too weak to heal myself. Wouldn't being alone hurt me more? Wouldn't it break my legs to look for any way out of my thoughts? It didn't really matter if my legs were broken. The only thing that mattered was how to heal those legs, but I had neither the strength nor the knowledge about this treatment.
