Fear of Failure
"What?!"
The gasp was unanimous. Such a rebound could not be taken lightly. If this continued over time, the repercussions would not be limited to this Ordeal alone.
"Why didn't you say anything?" Enya questioned her with a hurt expression.
"I didn't want to worry you..." Her sister confessed sheepishly.
In response, Jake and the others drew a long, weary sigh. They couldn't really blame her, but it was clear that she was partially responsible for Will's condition. If she had spoken up a little earlier, they might have been able to act in time.
Though, the biggest culprit was Will himself. It would have been enough for him to tell them about it. Even without any solution, it would have at least warned the rest of the group.
After Jake reconfirmed that Will' condition was not worsening, he asked the younger sister a few more questions to clarify the facts. It turned out that this Skill's disappearance was not just a matter of missing words in her Oracle Status.
