"You have become the very disease she was meant to cure," Izanami had once said to Sakura a month before Liu left Doiwa for Shenxia. Back then, Liu was intent on keeping Sakura safe and taking all the hits for her.
She had never wanted Sakura to feel any pinch of anything when night handed, Liu had managed to get hurt and never get something that she hadn't ever thought was possible for her and Sakura.
And now, years later, as she stood before the young woman who was so defiant and brave, perhaps stupid, but gutsy enough to defy and challenge her at the same time.
Liu knew at that moment what Izanami had meant back then.
The day that Sakura had taken her as an Erasthai suddenly, that was all insane. Liu had wondered about it over the past few years since the rumors of Kiyomi Kimura began.
But now, she could see it.
