"Oh."
Finn replies.
"Finn's head hasn't been right since he was stabbed. The damage left a... Scar I guess... On his light."

"If only I could help him..." She sighed.
-
"I don' think I can be helped..." Finn replies. "He's technically mentally handicapped. A cripple." Wisp adds, making the Hunter flinch and stare at the ground.

-
"Yes, but you're not mentally damaged like him. He's likely to slowly lose it until he goes brain dead. His days are numbered." Wisp says. Finn sighs.
-
"I will save him somehow...." Sarah says.
-
"Sarah... Love... I don' think I can be saved." Finn says, his voice quiet.
-
She lost it. Right then and there. Her will to live was gone. She hid that very fact. The Warlock fell silent.
-
Finn reached up to take her hand. "Well... It might not kill him." Wisp says. "I've been working on possible ways to help him. There are a couple possibilities."
-
She just silently nodded. An unreadable expression was permanently pasted on her face.
-
"Sarah?" His voice is worried as he holds her hand.
-
Sarah let go of his hand. And she ran. She would never be the same. She hid away in a corner, and cried.
-
He tried to run after her. "Sarah?! Wait! Come back!" When he couldn't find her he dropped to his knees. He felt so bad he was actually physically sick inside.
-
He hears a faint sound of crying in the distance.
-
He quickly follows the sound, looking frantically for her.
-
The crying seemed to grow louder as he drew closer.
-
He finally finds her, and immediately rushes to her. He quickly kneels down and pulls her into a tight hug, as if he's clinging to her for dear life.
-
She cries as turns around and hugs back. "Please... don't go...."
-
"Sarah, I promised I wouldn't leave ya, remember?" He replies, holding her so tight she can feel his heartbeat.
-
"I... remember. But what if that promise breaks? Too much thinking is bad for me..... Sometimes... I wish... I wish... I wish I was a Titan or Hunter." She continues to cry.
-
"Sarah, have I e'er broken a promise to you?" He asks her.
-
"No.... But this one is based upon pure hope. Oh, light..."
-
He now has tears in his eyes. He cups her cheek so she looks him in the eye. "Sarah, I swear naw e'en death would keep me from you. An' besides, I've made it this far, right?"
-
She nods.
-
"An' I didn't have you all that time watchin' my back. Now I do. I don' think the odds are tha' bad." He smiles, though it's forced.
-
She forced a smile. "I think I've cracked it... why she's like this. Well, at least how to figure out, what exactly traumatized her. I know it's third life origin. Trust me, I tried reading through those memories, but it was so... uh... lengthy.... and horrible, I couldn't continue," Lunar said. "I don't like to think about that life. I'm lucky I'm able to quote the Book of Sorrows without thinking of well.... The events," Sarah replied.
