Visiting Ul'dah was fun and easy now that she lived so much closer! She could stop by Una'to's shop and give him sweets and get scolded about eating too many sweets any time she wanted! And today was a day that she wanted! Without thinking about it, Lina rushed over to greet her friend with a big warm hug. "Una'to! I missed you! How are you?"
Unaâto was sitting in his usual alleyway, dusk falling overhead. It was a quiet night so far, that is until the weight of Lina fell upon him in a hug, pulling him up with her to be a proper hug. He lightly hugs her back, but something feels off and he has to push her away quickly to catch the cough wracking his body. Catching his black blood in his hand, the other keeping Lina clear of it getting on her. Despite his best efforts the blood pooled in his hands and seeped between the cracks.
Slowly but surely he can feel tears streaming down his face. He had been so careful to keep her from seeing his blood this whole time. The wound on his neck throbs painfully, as if reminding him that itâs the reason for his worse than usual constitution and his sensitivity. Slowly confusion dawns on him at he attempts to blink tears away from under his mask. Looking at Lina, his hair standing on end, tail end poofed out as he keeps his mouth covered he probes around in his brain for that all too familiar alarm bell that sounds with those of the void.
