Shadowheart

I'm sorry.

[Genuinely. Even though he thinks she may have already come to terms with that being in the past. Sometimes, resentment and hurt lingers, though.]

I would never allow the commune to do such a thing. We had children, the ones I healed, but I would never allow them to be taken.

But I do understand what I offered was difficult not to take when in pain or turmoil. The collective was simply a part of the Hexcore's internal magical design.
