Maura shrugged. She had already said more than she felt obligated to say. She might have taken a light fancy to Zach's physique and potential, but she wasn't going to give him the guidance and comfort he needed or whatever it was he was asking for.
Zach sighed.
No matter what he said, it wasn't like Maura was going to change reality or the past.
"I'll just say that if you wanted the Hydra out of its seal, you could have always broken it yourself instead of helping the Hydra get stronger." He eventually said. There was no need to get worked up about something he couldn't change right now. But he was going to get the last word.
"..."
"Oh, don't tell me you didn't think of that?"
"The seal was made by Isuls, the god of nature," Maura said as if to explain.
"So, you can't handle the seal, but you can handle the Hydra, who can break the seal?" Zach asked.
"...It's easier for the Hydra to break the seal. It's been wearing it down for millennia."
