Magi Heart
The Dark Heart is suddenly glomped by the wolf child
@Raid Boss . She was deep in the heated area, did he run all the way here? This selfish behavior! He wasn't a savior she was! This sort of thing disgusted Wendel!

"Gee whiz. Get off of me!"
He cares.
He makes the same mistakes with his heart that I as Wendy did.
Then, I as Wendel will show him the right way to care.

"You see them over there?"
She grabbed his head and forcibly turned it towards the chaos of battle.
@Moonsong fighting her own lover.
@Yugam Fighting for the loss of his beloved Tubby and his love afar
@Luthien
@Cain Darlite exhausted but refusing to ever leave a field where the souls of champions burn brightly.
And of course...
@Seigi Ling Ling who embodies heroism and is immortal even through her own death.

"They fight constant battles and no matter what never reach a happy ending. No matter how kewl it looks. It is a useless cause...understand? They can't have peace unless they die. Because that is what living means. To suffer is to live."
She turned his face to look at her. Although almost 18 years old, she still looked closer to 15. A face that belonged to a girl that would believe everything just worked out. Now pale, grayed, and with an eye that was as black as the nightmarish things it had seen.
She was going to push him into the next attack. Let him die. Heck, the flames here alone could do that for her. She had no longer the power to heal, for years it caused the wounds of targets to worsen. For that was true healing. A hasty death.
What about hope?
Not the camp.
Actual hope?
Isn't that what fuels you for a happy end?
Wendel's hand was grasping the boy tightly and black energy crept over him. She would use her dissonance, she would ensure even his soul died. He would be safe and no longer a pitiful person like this. She cared for this soul. Save him forever!
Hope says he will live.
Even if it's impossible you can still hope for it.
Sometimes miracles happen like being free of Vermillion.

"...So now I feel you pest. I knew it. It's why I unleashed what I did at that tower. I'm Magi Heart, I don't need to hope, I only need to do... but...if hope can give me what I want I'll take it too."
If he dies I shall eat his soul.
He will be saved.
If he lives I shall heal him.
He will be saved.
<When this is all over... which shall it be?>
