While Gaelion was fighting with his life on the line, this man was simply doing a job.
The irrationality made him think he was going insane.
Taniko’s troubled, crying face.
Taniko’s slightly lonely face when he went out.
Taniko’s happy face when he returned home.
He could no longer see any of them.
The Dragon Emperor fragments are immortal.
But when will he revive? There’s no guarantee he will ever see Taniko again.
If someone were to extract his core and use it, then revival would be impossible.
And with those thoughts of anger and despair, Gaelion died.
