Introspection in the Dark
The primal beast plans to use the magic stored in Estarriola to create a new world but that is all she will admit to. As the old man continues to deal with his lost emotions, the primal beast offers him naught but silence.
Estarriola keeps questioning the primal, trying to discover the hidden truth that extends beyond the realm of knowledge.
Estarriola: No, you will heed me.
Estarriola: What do you plan on doing with the power you've been fomenting within me over these past one hundred years?
Primal Beast: To answer is to err. Thus I heed you not.
Estarriola: Then I'll change the question. Am I a cup to you, pactkeeper?
Primal Beast: Yes.
Estarriola: Like the cups you hold in both your hands, are you waiting for me to fill with water?
Primal Beast: Yes.
Estarriola: What do you desire from this water?
Primal Beast: To answer is to err.
Estarriola: Does it have anything to do with your dream?
Primal Beast: ...
Estarriola: Don't hide it. I already know. You'll use it to create a new world, yes?
Primal Beast: Yes.
Estarriola: But you don't want to discuss the details.
Primal Beast: Yes.
Estarriola: How disappointing, but within the bounds of expectation. Haven't you realized that you're already heeding me?
Primal Beast: ...
Estarriola: That night when I—no, when you invoked a spell 'pon the country, is my guess on when it started.
Primal Beast: ...
Estarriola: But I won't go willingly. I'm not a cup without a voice.
Estarriola: I am Estarriola, who strove to be a magnificent sorcerer.
Estarriola: You'll not lay hands on the water inside this cup.
Primal Beast: ...
Estarriola: I fear not death, but rather fading into a forgotten memory.
Estarriola: The thought of becoming a cup whose heart feels nothing when looking at your face is what terrifies me.
Estarriola: The vivid memory of my wife's murder stays with me, but I'm empty inside. It makes me shiver.
Estarriola: Agony, regret, anger, sadness... Any normal person would experience these emotions...
Estarriola: What did you do with them? What have you done to me?
Primal Beast: ...
No response comes however. Whether the primal beast can't answer or is unwilling to answer, all that greets him is her silence.
