Chapter 40: Forgive Me—When Already I Shall Not Forgive Myself

The reveal didn’t go as bad as Elanor thought, but it was everything else that would follow it that she had to worry about now.

Everyone was wary of each other, which was to be expected but if they stayed like that it’d be a long two weeks and there was no guarantee the demons would learn anything.

She wanted to see it so badly, their races getting along, to know that she wasn’t just some one-off, insane person but that this was possible. That they could get along, that there could be peace.

She knew it wouldn’t be for everyone, that some people would just be too stubborn to ever accept it, but they had to have a chance. Elanor was one human, and she’d done so well and so much but she was only one person.

Maybe it was for the best that they were traveling with other humans, even if Duckwart had been an unexpected twist in their mission.
