Chapter 443 – Half-broken
"I will take back my soul."
Maryam said, her hand reaching for Selene.
The latter did not do anything, except looking at the approaching hand in the way a mortal would look at an approaching divine punishment.
Selene realized that there was nothing she could do. Her own being wanted to abandon her, after all.
Luminara, at her side, did nothing but watch. No, she was doing more than that. She was staring at this event with awe and devotion, as if eager to see Selene absorbed back inside Maryam.
None of the two thought this was something bad. To them, Selene was simply a small fragment of Maryam. She was meant to eventually go back to Maryam, and that since the beginning.
That was their plan.
But did the plan do its job correctly?
Selene might be only a wisp of Maryam, but that wisp had come to be her own person.
To avoid people recognizing her clone, Maryam had cleaned her soul from her memories and her emotions before using it to create Selene.
