KORBIN
Leave my loneliness unbroken!
- quit the bust above my door!
- quit the bust above my door!
The raven had an easier time getting back into the sky. Lighter and made for agility, he needed only to jump off and beat his wings to take off. Almost immediately he felt the discomfort of the pulled muscle grow into pain, but he bit it back with stubborn determination and just kept flying. More focused on pushing the fear down.
Quite intentionally he made himself look down as they ascended and set course for the Citadel. Made himself swerve and dip in the sky too, challenging every motion that made his insides curl up and shrivel with remembered panic. It was a merciless brutal beating he gave himself, and he was too busy with it to really shield. There no hiding the pain he was in, or the depth of his resolve.
Or that it really worked. Slowly, gradually, the fear subsided, and his confidence increased until he flew almost like normal again. Only hampered by the stabbing needles zipping through the wing.
When the Citadel came into view, Korbin made a move to veer off, meaning to fly back home.

Quoth the Raven,
"Nevermore."
"Nevermore."
