in which a confrontation follows.
"Why?"
Silence. You lunge first.
Under his direction, she becomes your opponent.

10/16.
in which flinching is for losers.
You behead her, and charge.
Your blade finds his side—
Smoke?

He smiles bitterly.
How is this good news?

SpoilerNearing the end of the verse! Well done on the coherence thing. Bless your souls.
It's early to say, but there's an intermission between verses 4 and 5/8 and 9 where we pull our omniscience card and fill in some gaps. Don't feel too pressed to tidy anything up within the next 20 updates, and have a good time. :D
11/16.
in which he can still atone.
"If I die here, no-one'll stop Esgil."
The wound smokes through his fingers.

He held you on a pedestal that nobody else could reach. He didn't care about anyone else but you, and it drove you mad.
