Noah blinked as he looked down and saw a flash of something that made his stomach turn. Eyes looking up at him and his own body, crouched on the ice, banging and screaming and clawing and his father's eyes looking up at him. Warm light surrounded him as Evie's words hit his ears and Noah's heart surged into his throat.
He blinked again.
It was a mix of realization and a hint of PTSD that made Noah step off from overtop the frozen body. "Nothing." He said quickly, gathering up the last of his gathered ore to put in Deimos' sled as he quickly moved away from it. "A body in the ice. Dead. I don't know them." His voice was darkened, and the shadows behind the glacier pools now were covered in the trauma of the Core's illusions. He looked towards Deimos from the corner of his eyes, the attuned bond pulsing with the dark grey trauma, knowing that the Sword would understand.
"Let's keep going." Noah said, though he stayed closer to the Sword now as he readied his pick axe to gather more rocks.
Noah relives some trauma and then plans to stay closer to his friends while they mine.
