Princess Garnet
The Sky Falls
She was a child. That much was true. The day she boasted to Marcus in the cable cars that she was a seasoned veteran was possibly the most childish she had ever been.
Now, she feels old. So old. Like the smallest nudge might unbalance her, the slightest touch break a bone. Her childishness has deserted her.
Her friends look on, and they look older too. Aboard the Blue Narciss, they stand together- their expressions grim, their mouths set.
She wants to tell them she's sorry- that it's all her fault. But it seems that the words just won't come.
