"The darkest parts of people reside within their soul."
With the death of Arthur Pendragon came the fall of Camelot. It had been with the completion of the Eclipse armour that the Trollhunters fell to shambles. Esmerion must fight to keep Jim alive...
Chilling darkness seeps through his bones. The runes on his hand burn like ice, blistering in scarlet red. Unlike the boy, he is aware of this.
His mouth is open in a silent cry, a plea for mercy. Glassy tears slip from the edges of his dulling amber eyes.
"Don't touch the darkness."
"He will claw out your heart."
"Your soul will cease."
Memories, lessons, and reminders swirl within his mind. Everything he has been taught, all the knowledge he has given. This is forbidden. This is suicide.
And yet he could not allow the boy to go. To wander alone in festering lands beyond the Bridge. For all the logic in the world, his compassion overrode it.
He loves his brother far to much to abandon him in a place he does not know. He cannot bring himself to forget the boy as the world forgot him.
So they float together in the endless expanse between two places, lost in the fears of their own minds. The darkness has never been kind and it will never forgive.
