(Flashback)
It had been a few weeks, since the incident. Jason has survived his injuries but had lost movement in his right arm. I had been going out on my own to hunt for supplies and I managed to bring back some mana crystals from beasts that had unique abilities.
It was dangerous and I struggled to fight by myself but I had to do something. Jason had become a shell of his former self. He usually sleeps and when he's awake he doesnt speak to me.
I acquired a mana crystal from a beast that had a regenerative ability and gave it to him hoping it could heal his wound and it did. But it couldnt heal his mind.
When I had met him I was just a nun at a catholic church. After everything that's happened, I've lost my faith. He's the only thing I have now. My only reason left to move forward.
I've tried everything to get him better but nothing has worked. I even went as far as bringing him alchohol and giving myself to him, but even that didnt fix anything. His eyes are still devoid of life and he only goes through the motions. Like a zombie.
I'm lost about how to heal him and I feel powerless. He was finally able to go out with me hunting, but when he fights, it's like he becomes a rabid beast. He had eaten the mana crystal from the gorrila we killed before and sometimes he even resembles it, even when he's not transformed.
One morning I woke up in our bed only to find him gone. He usually is sound asleep when I wake up but he was missing.
"Jason? Jason?!" I looked for him frantically, but I noticed his bag and his sword were gone.
I waited and waited. I searched high and low for him, but he never came back. Days, Months, Years all passed in a flash. Many things had changed but I never stopped looking for him.
Perhaps it was fate. After he had disappeared I had met many other people. Some good, some bad. I had grown stronger and there were always people who wanted me to join them. But...
My heart wouldn't allow it. I knew why. I had been charmed by him from the beginning. He was courageous and strong. He always treated me with respect. He had saved my life on many occasions. I'm know I'm a hopeless woman.
There was a new city built near the ruins of old Star City. Other races had begun to settle in our world. Elves, Dwarves, Orks, and Beastfolk had immigrated and settled in the new city.
Just like humans there were good and bad amongst them. The beasts outside had become very strong and other types of monsters had started appearing. Things like goblins, trolls, undead and other beasts that one might see in a fairy tale became a norm for us.
Even still I searched for him. And then I found him again. Sitting in a tavern and drinking. He had a few companions with him and they seemed nice. But he still had a air of danger, like one wrong move and he would snap and kill you.
I watched him. I couldn't find my courage to approach him. I followed him everywhere. I even went as far as using one of my high leveled spells to connect myself with him.
Many years would pass and he had gone through alot. It hurt that I couldn't help him. I could only watch through my spell. Every year that passed he fell further into his darkness.
It was after many years when I was beginning to feel the onset of age that he began working on something. He used a mana crystal from a hyper intelligent beast and began building some kind of machine.
I watched in curiosity from the shadows. I realized that I had my own madness at this point and couldn't blame him for what he was trying to do. And on the day he was ready to depart, I destroyed my own body so that my soul could follow him.
This was our second chance. I wont let him get away from me this time. I'll follow him and get him to finally see me. I guess it's true. "Love can make you crazy.~"
