Subaru:  The demon beast’s fangs gently traced the drops trickling slowly down his cheek. Those fangs that were sharp and looked like they could break anything, moved so gently, so as not to hurt Subaru, who was easier to hurt than anyone there. Endearingly, gently, kindly…

Shaula:  “Mrgh, I don’t know what to do with all this love!” Closing his eyes, he heard her voice answering him. And yet she was nowhere anymore.

Subaru:  “…Ah…” Kneeling in the sand, Subaru tore at the ground. Someone’s voice reached his ears. He didn’t know who, and he couldn’t bring himself to check. But, drawn by it, he looked up, and his eyes widened. The desert was covered in black dust. It trembled slightly, and something crawled out. It was a small creature that could fit in the palm of his hand. Scraping at the sand with its two pincers, it used its tail to deftly pull its body out of the sand. A little creature with a red carapace… It moved toward Subaru kneeling on the ground and leaned against his sandy hand. It was just a touch, but it felt like a vestige of her charm… Crumbling away. Peeling away. Fading. Everything gleaming in the distance. Everything gleamed so much in the distance. —And it’s because you were there.
