She could tell that he meant to soothe her with his words, but they had the opposite effect. Reverie's tears intensified, and in the brief silence that stretched out after his words she began to sob quietly. She was just... so tired of this — this endless battle her life had become. All she'd wanted was to be free. All she'd wanted was to be loved. But it was just too much to ask.
I don't want to, She whispered, feeling pathetic, likely looking it too. I don't. I'm just so sick of it, you know? It's like - like when I look at the world, I see something different from what everyone else sees. And instead of trying to understand, they try to change me, or they just start to hate me. Even Lestan... Her voice cracked and trailed away.
Why would I stay for that? Why would I fight for that? She knew the answer even as she asked the question. Reverie sucked in a breath before she continued. She's the only reason I have. My daughter. But one day she won't need me anymore, and then... And then...
She looked at him with great intensity then. Will you take me back? Back to - our place?
