— When I first saw him in White Sand Paradise, I never thought he would become the bane of my life.
At that time, I was just a coward who couldn't stand the sight of blood, driven insane by the mental pollution of White Sand Paradise, trembling under the covers. But he walked out from the darkness, bathed in radiant light, and pulled me out of my cocoon.
He said he would send me back to rest, that White Sand Paradise would drive me mad.
His mind wasn't well either, with deep dark circles under his eyes and a pallid face, yet he had no intention of going back to rest.
I mistakenly thought of him as my mother. Because in my memory, only a mother would be so warm.
"Mom, is humanity going to be destroyed? I don't want to go back, I can't go back, I still need to... earn points for humanity..." I cried loudly.
His finger pressed against my temple.
"You're already mad, go back."
"Mom, aren't you going back with me?"
