Complex Emotions

Mira spent her time while Maria was unconscious, brooding over what she should do in this situation. Truthfully, she's never been in this position before, but she felt so many conflicting emotions that she wasn't sure what was the correct answer. 

She felt indifferent to the fact that Erika and Cole had died. Death was just another part of life; in a way, she considered death a release. Take their deaths as an example. They lived the last few hours full of suffering that would make even the most battle-hardened man lose his mind. Death was no different from freedom in their case.

She felt sad that two kind, selfless, and caring cultivators died just because they were somewhat related to her. Deep in her heart, Mira knew they didn't deserve to die like that. They deserved to live a long, happy life, but Mira's appearance snatched that away from them!\
