(Echoes)
“Well then... then you should just use the power of the spiral... why can’t you use that power?!! To bring Nia back? And not just her! ... all the other people we lost....”
“Sorry, but Simon isn’t God... Gimmy.”
Tears fall from my face from utter confusion.
“Those who are dead... are dead. If we bring them back to life, then they’ll just get in the way of the next generation, right?”
He puts something in my hand....
“It’s in your hands now, Rossiu.”
“But... Simon?...”
“I’m just... Simon the Digger. There’s someone better suited to go down the tunnels I dug.”
His eyes are looking directly in mine when he made that statement.
Rossiu emphatically says “You can count on me.”
I open up my hand... and I couldn’t believe what my eyes were seeing...

I’ve been having the nightmares again. They started happening right after the Battle with the Anti-Spiral, but they’ve been reoccurring in my mind again. But they aren’t necessarily nightmares. They are flashbacks. In a moment so dark, it was him, who was the only one who could be justifiably upset... but he... just kept walking. Once he started, he never looked back. We never saw his face again. I...... I........
I just don’t get it.
Not one damn bit...
