'Why? Why? Why did I ever encounter this demon? Why did Jath decide to approach him? Why did Jath decide to provoke him countless times?'
'Just why?'
'I don't want to die. I don't deserve to die.'
'I did nothing wrong. I did not provoke him. I did not attack him with the others.'
'I did nothing wrong. I don't want to die.'
'It's all Jath's fault. If he had not provoked this demon, I would not be in this position. The others would not be dead.'
'I would not be facing this demon's madness and fury.'

His innocent and calm smile remained on his face as he watched her cry.
"And why should I let you live?"
