DARKEYE
Not the strongest win the battle —
He sighs for a moment. "I've only heard rumors about them, but they're echo sharks. They were there when the Spark bird was here, and they recorded the sounds that were made then and are now playing them back. A horror for those who survived it." It was also a reminder that he had failed. Every time he was reminded of it. It got on his nerves a bit and often led him to rethink everything he had done wrong.
Darkeye thought about how he should tell her. Since she had asked so clearly about Nero, the assumption was that she might have considered him a friend or even more. But when she smoothed everything out before going to the tavern and checked her appearance, it was more likely that she saw more in him. He cleared his throat. "There is no easy way to say this-...He fought bravely on the Grounds, trying to bring down the Sky bird. He has given many people the opportunity to escape. Unfortunately, he died in the process. I couldn't stop it, I'm sorry." Not that he would have done it for Neron. Maybe for the others or if he had killed the Sky bird. But he would also have tried to kill a weakened Neron.
