Her smile had broken with his words. For a moment, she remained where she was, gazing down at the roof as she debated how to answer. She had been told the truth. He should as well.
"Yes." She spoke the single word with ice on it. Finally her eyes came up and she gazed towards his face. As young and unchanged as her own. Maybe that had been what Xan, Delilah, and even Mercy had been like before...
"I cannot say I have seen it with my own eyes yet but I have seen the effects. Some people very close to me have witnessed death and some have been forced to kill to either save themselves or others. I have even heard stories of people on the same side killing their own..." Meteora offered, somberness as she felt the words leave her. "I do have to agree with you. Maybe if people fought evenly matched, things....things would not end so poorly. However..." Eyes closing a moment, she gave a long deep sigh. "Such is not the way. I have not heard rumor of much death in the past few months but I do know that even recently, a large number of lives were lost."
"It sucks..."
