The human male takes a deep breath, closes his eyes… And when he opens them, his expression is as stony and as steadfast as he can form his soft features to be.
“Ismena,” Edwin says, “I can’t. I’m sorry.”
“Edwin, pleasse, jusst LISSTEN!”
“I have,” he says. “I did. I… I still… I care about you. If you stop all this, if you turn yourself in, we can be together.”
“Pfft, like THAT’S gonna’ happen, amirite?’ Irinnile laughs.
“And if I don’t?” you ask softly.
“Then…” Edwin sighs a ragged sigh. “I think you should go. I won’t… I won’t say anything to anyone, about any of this. I understand that you have your reasons, but… I can’t be a part of this, whatever this is.”
