The Darkness dilated, and Max saw… he saw himself.
They were back at the Church.
He seemed to be in a sort of trance. His friends were calling for him, snapping their fingers, shaking him.
“Max! Maax!”
The Knight let out a sound seemly like a laugh, but rough and metalic.
“Your friends are waiting for you…
They care a lot about you, don’t they?
I feel that you care a lot about them, too.”
