Nameless' voice came calm… yet filled with something deeper.
"I couldn't do it."
"I couldn't burn your soul completely… because the moment it ignited—
the moment I gained that power…"
"…another flame ignited inside me."
He paused.
"I was enraged. Overwhelmed by anger and sorrow… to the point I wanted nothing but to destroy Agaroth."
"But…"
"The moment I struck him with the fangs of your raging soul…"
"…my own soul began to burn as well."
He looked at me.
And I saw it ...
the truth reflected in his eyes.
"When you burned… I burned too."
"When you die, Frey… I die as well."
I was stunned.
We… lived together.
And we would die together too.
"When my soul ignited," he continued, his voice trembling slightly,
"the death aspect of my ability stopped functioning… and the burning halted with it."
"That's why… you were able to open your eyes again."
His voice quivered ...
revealing emotions that were entirely his.
"I couldn't maintain that power."
