The Aftermath (The Characters)
Erifia has been… I don’t know, especially quiet. I knew when she threw me off the ship that it wasn’t her. I was proud of myself… For like, I don’t know, three seconds, before the massive migraines began.
She’s walking around in a daze… Yesterday, she had to kill a I don’t know, Magma Shard, or a Magnus Bard, or a Magnet Card… I don’t know, she didn’t even smile. I tried to read her mind, but there is this massive barrier, one I couldn’t even cross.
I tried to talk to her, and she just stared past me… Like she was looking for something, but couldn’t find it. She will occasionally say the Jedi thingy…
To herself, under her breath. I don’t know…
I guess I am asking for help. I don’t know how to help her.
She cries… Please don’t tell her. She has cried a lot for the past week. I just want her to be okay.
I feel like such a bad friend, I don’t even know what is wrong.

Sick (Tatooine)
Mommy is sick… She is blowing her nose and she is always screaming like she is hurt. I tried to help mommy… Mommy isn’t getting better.
I gave mommy my bubblebubkin. She pushed it away without looking at me. I hugged mommy. She pushed me away. I got mommy my old bottle. She tossed it to the ground.
I want mommy to stop being sick.
I gave her some medicines, the thing she sticks under my tongue, that always makes me better. She wouldn’t take it.
Does mommy want to stay sick?
If me –
Tatooine…
I can count to 8.

Failure (Inferna)
I failed… Where did I go wrong?

Sleep (Erifia)
Can’t I just go to sleep and not wake up?
If you’ll excuse me, I need to sleep, a lot,
Sobs and Pain,
