*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''???:''' '' | *''A large group of fully armed knights surrounded the dormitory.'' | ||
*''Raven knew something wasn't right, but forced himself to stay calm. He did not wish to have his anxiety spread among his allies.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Series}} '''Series:''' ''I don't understand... They're closing in. What's going on?'' | |||
*''Seris whispered so only Raven could hear. She sounded cool.'' | |||
*''Others would have thought she was angry, but Raven knew from experience that she was trying to mask her unease.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Seris}} '''Seris:''' ''Should I grab my weapon?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Raven:''' ''... No. We should stay still.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Raven:''' ''Don't worry Seris. They are knights of the Kingdom. I'm sure it's just a misunderstanding.'' | |||
*''Even as he calmed her down, Raven had to tear his gaze away from the blade he left leaning against the wall.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Raven:''' ''(I do not want to see anymore.)'' | |||
*''After this... is a memory he repeated over and over again.'' | |||
*''The officers that came barging in... and their old friend who came barging in with them... Owen.'' | |||
*''Before he can even question why his old comrade who left disgracefully is here, he is accused of treason.'' | |||
*''The mercenary troop was overpowered without even a struggle. Looking back, persuading his comrades to stay unarmed was a mistake.'' | |||
*''At this time, he was the only one charged for treason, so he was relieved that his unarmed allies would likely be let go without serious charges.'' | |||
*''But if they resisted... then maybe some of them could have escaped their fates.'' | |||
*''... As he was forced to kneel, Raven's eyes met with Owen's.'' | |||
*''But he could not read anything from his expression. Despite their time spent together, it was like he was staring at a stranger.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Raven:''' ''(I don't know.)'' | |||
*''An even older memory surfaced.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Raven:''' ''(You said we were... pawns. Do you really mean that?)'' | |||
*''Owen didn't say anything.'' | |||
*''Now, there was no one around them. Only Owen and Raven remained.'' | |||
*''He could smell stuffy, sickening humidity from somewhere.'' | |||
*''Raven was unfazed with the sudden change. It wasn't anything different. He was merely reliving his memories.'' | |||
*''He knows he was used by an unknown faction that was against the Kingdom, and he was used as a scapegoat.'' | |||
*''The mercenary troop was released after a brief questioning, and they were not accused of treason.'' | |||
*''However, his allies tried to rescue him. They lost their lives, and their honor tarnished because of it.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Raven:''' ''(I should have told them to raise their swords.)'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Raven:''' ''(I should have told them to protect themselves.)'' | |||
*''Though he knows it's useless, his mind still races.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Raven:''' ''(If I made a different choice, would I have changed anything?)'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Raven:''' ''Owen, is this what you wanted?'' | |||
*''Owen from his imagination does not respond.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Raven:''' ''Our friendship, the achievements and struggles we had together, were they all merely stepping stones for you?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Raven:''' ''Were you just like the others?'' | |||
*''Owen smiles without a word. It's the same smile he saw multiple times at the academy.'' | |||
*''He didn't understand back then.'' | |||
*''But know, it looked like a smile... commending the lucky commoner who knew his place.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Raven:''' ''Were you... always the same?'' | |||
*''Despicable.'' | |||
*''His body felt strangely heavy, but his sword raised against him.'' | |||
