No one knew what to do.
Nilrem was right. This was the first time something like this had happened in the Fawkes family. There had always been a push and pull of dark and light, but no one dared to break the bottom line.
But even if they hadn't personally seen Leonel kill them, after he killed one of their mothers with such careless disregard, how could they not just make the assumption that he had killed the three others as well?
Only a child would fall for "Nilrem's" confession, and it seemed like Leonel clearly didn't care if they believed it or not.
He seemed to be showing them that there was a door he was willing to open and walk through that they were not.
He was not a cripple, not someone they could just trample over; he was a Morales. And they all happened to be madmen.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
