As it turned out, Kysa, now his clone, had never expected their battle. In a way, perhaps fate had intended for them to be together.
She'd had no desire to hunt Halo at first, even after her encounter with Fade of Bridle. But when Seraphim came around often and casually spoke of Halo, she saw the opportunity and took it.
Actually, Kysa had wanted Seraphim to travel to StoneHaven and drag Halo to her immediately.
Seraphim refused multiple times and even resisted violently, but when Kysa nearly killed one of her teammates, something in her changed as though she'd suddenly learned to fear death. Even then, she insisted on waiting until Halo had fulfilled his Purpose.
"Tell me… what do you think convinced her to act differently? Was it to protect herself or to protect her comrades?"
After a day of rest, Kysa gave her corpse a proper burial, knowing her disappearance would raise questions. Halo had recovered enough to travel, so they journeyed to Noah's estate near Silent Hill.
