12. Without Promise
It's only now that it's over that Shou has a chance to understand just what he has done. Just what he lost.
He hadn't been able to think about Peckmon dying for more than a few moments. He hadn't even been able to mourn his friend after being turned into glass and plastic. HE hadn't had anything.

That was enough for encouragement, he supposed.
