Eve Warren's voice grew a little louder. Her gaze was fixed on the empty space before her, as if expecting her backer to tear through the void at any moment. But despite her anticipation, the powerful figure she relied on did not come.

The backing she was so proud of failed to appear.
"You lied to me... You lied to me."
"I trusted you so much, how could you lie to me?"
