Jade Fern Grove mea maxima culpa

here again she was aided by the same odd detachment she'd felt when she'd encountered the bloody scene a few days ago. she knew Aditya to be standing there, and yet the scene seemed slightly removed from reality. her maw parted slightly, auds twitching a tiny fraction as she registered this. "I know what you did. not why." he'd left her family. left them with Sunny, who she knew well was unfit to lead, especially in the wake of disaster. and so had she. no matter her intentions at the onset, when she'd passed the borders of Teekon she's chosen not to go back. together they'd foresaken Morningside. 

"choosing not the come back to Morningside when we'd all been crippled by grief was unforgivable. I left them, and more died, but I'm still here." she paused. "you're still here. you told me before that no one known how to move on - you just do." she still didn't, and most days passed in a fog. she's learned enough to know that to hate him, hurt him now (however much of herself wanted to) would cause nothing but more regret. "what you did, what I did, maybe that's unforgivable. hating you now won't change that."
