Coming to a close

"Finally!" Vivian sighed in relief as she managed to get behind a line of people. She was beyond tired and her body ravaged with wounds. All she wanted was to rest. To have a moment to catch her breath.

"Hey! You ca-" The man stopped as he saw her condition, "Quick, move further back."

"No, I can't" Vivian shook her head as she took a seat, "I-"

"You need to rest. Going back into the fight will just cause your death. Do not think that we will be able to revive you."

'Right... This fight will not end in a few minutes...' Vivian sighed and felt like crying. She had thought she would get used to death. Alas, life was not so kind. 

All those she had known, who had also come in the name of Phallos's help... All her comrades were dead. And now too so was Eldrian. She was certain of it and she was incapable of believing that something as great as resurrection could truly be true. Not without a cost.
