Since then, he had lived through the harrowing torture of the Blood Weave transfore of mental collapse to resist the effects of the enthrallh the terrors of the dark sea in absolute darkness, saw it being destroyed by the horrid dweller of the deep, and gave battle to thatas the result

His body andoff

Despite that, Sunny stubbornly continued to swiiant stone hand that was rising fro to e around hiht explosion that had rocked it so to drown the two Sleepers, throwing theainst them was a hard task

And still, he persisted

The daas drawing close, but for now, there was still nothing but cold, darkness and danger all around the could rise from the depths of the abyss and put an end to their desperate attempt to save theone, perhaps scared away by the pain of being exposed to the searing light

Hoisting Cassie up, he helped her climb on the dark rocks and followed closely behind Soon, they reached the open palm of the hand and crawled to its center, then fell down, utterly spent and exhausted

For a long time, neither of them was able to talk All Sunny could do was lay motionless, draw in raspy breaths, and try to stay awake

His hts That was fine, because he didn't want to think If he did, he would be forced to remember… remember what had happened to…

'Shut up!'

What was the point of re

The sound of the black water crashi+ng against the base of the giant hand reht was still not over

Opening his eyes, Sunny tried to understand their current circuhtly raised above the waves, the base of the giant thu the surface of the dark sea The palhly half the size of the circular platforotten Shore It was angled upward, creating a slight slope

'We need to get further away froht, Sunny tiredly stood up and bent down to touch Cassie's shoulder

"Cassie Stand up We have to her"

His voice sounded hollow and brittle

The blind girl flinched and raised her head, her skin deathly pale

"Sunny?"

He nodded

"Yeah It's me"

She was still in shock Sunny could see that Cassie's ently pulled her to her feet

"Coered

"What happened? I heard a… a sound… and then soritted his teeth and tried to keep his tone even

"We were attacked by a sea ed to find you, then swah above the water, so…"

Cassie wavered

"Where's… where's…"

Sunny hurried to interrupt her, unwilling to answer the next question

"Coher"

Gently guiding the blind girl, Sunny clier, which was the highest point they could reach without cli down on the cold stone, he rested his back against the giant phalanx and stared at the restless surface of the dark sea

His eyes were cold and empty

Cassie was silent by his side Her pale face was contorted, as though she simultaneously wanted to ask the question and dreaded the answer

Finally, gathering her courage, the blind girl whispered, her tre voice barely audible:

"Sunny Where is Neph?"

He stayed silent, not willing to speak the words out loud

Stupidly, he felt that if he spoke them, they would become the truth But if he didn't, there was still a possibility that they were a lie

'I''

A few moments later, the farew,his head spin

But eventually, he was still forced to say those bitter words

"She's… she's g…"

Before he could finish, a subtle sound attracted his attention It caes of the restless dark waves
