<div style="text-align: justify;">Gina noticed Daniel's reaction to the markings on her body. Her gaze went to his face, and she waited for him to calm down. "I don't know, Daniel", she replied in a matter-of-fact intonation. She would really have no idea which one it was. They were all similar to her, so there was no way to know. "We can deal with her...", Gina started, but Daniel's statement interrupted and stunned her.<br/><br/>Feeling her heart race and tighten, Gina didn't reply right away. It was for the best, as Daniel kept on talking. She listened to him, trying to understand and help him. It pained her that he felt like this, like he was facing a losing battle before he had even started to fight it.<br/><br/>Placing her hand on Daniel's chest, Gina listened in silence. "You don't know that, Dan", she finally replied. "You have been trying to fight alone, and this... person, is obviously not helping. She is feeding the beast. I would soothe it, and work with you, not against you". Gina spoke softly, but firmly. "Let me try, Dan. Everyone dies. If I die helping you be a better... you, I... I can deal with that. And if I can help you and go on living... we don't need to have children. If you think they could suffer for being ours, we will not have them. We can be happy with each other. We can go away, somewhere where you can't harm anyone. We'll live in a forest and off the land". Gina held Daniel's hands tightly. "Let me help you!".</div>
