COURTNEY'S POV
"I don't know, but I remember the Kerma has no concept of time it could be our souls were taken at the same time according to the Kerma," I suggested. "That or the Kerma works in mysterious ways."
"I don't know, perhaps," Maxwell said then his voice suddenly softened as he approached me. "You being here changes everything. I thought I was going mad that perhaps my previous life never existed because I've been here for so long."
"No," I firmly said and stepped back. I held out my arm and signaled for him to stop himself from getting any closer to me. "Why, why is this your choice?" I asked him. "Why are you doing all this!?"
I was happy that I found someone else to relate to, but that didn't mean I'd forgotten who Viktor/Maxwell was and the things he'd done. I now knew his story and understood his intentions to get back home. What I couldn't understand was why he caused so many atrocities in the process. I wanted him to explain why he was a tyrant.
