Trace: I could… I’d only need to use a little…
Trace: I’d just need to—
Nora: (thoughts) Trace, no!
Nora: (thoughts) You can’t use that power again!
Trace: But what else am I supposed to do? I can’t just leave her to die!
Nora: (thoughts) Trace, every time you use that power, you draw from your own lifeforce. That magic always comes at a cost. It will destroy you! And if you take her back to the Basitin, they’ll only kill you as well.
Nora: (thoughts) You must learn to accept that sometimes death is inevitable, or you will be destined to return to a path you’ve traveled before. Please… don’t sacrifice yourself.
Trace: Ngh…
Trace: I don’t intend to get myself killed.
Trace: But I remember enough of yesterday to know she risked her life for me.
Trace: I couldn’t live with myself if I didn’t try to do the same for her.
