<span style="color: #ff0000">"Sorry. Between the... everything that's happened I have these moments. Usually Monia can use her powers to quiet the thoughts and help me calm down but she's with Kitori and the children right now." </span>When Ophidian returned Karrie was standing up, her legs looking as wobbly as a newborn deer's but she slowly walked over and hug him as tight as she could, which was about as much as Syrenka.<span style="color: #ff0000"> "I wish you could have... I wish I could have shown you the real me when we first met."</span><br/><br/><span style="color: #666600">"No! You're wrong, I never wanted to hurt anyone, I've never hurt anyone intentionally I didn't start with Ashia. I changed bodies because she liked laying her eggs and I didn't know how to best please her. I didn't know what to do... I didn't know and I got frustrated but I love her and I only wanted her to be happy." </span>The'kal started to break down in tears as Melody continued but she kept shaking her head.<span style="color: #666600">"No, no... I've seen too much pain and suffering already I would never... I would never hurt her or anyone else. I wasn't even in Azeroth's orbit when it happened, I came back because I sensed something was wrong with her... when I saw what happened I panicked and tried to soothe her but only made things worse. I didn't hurt her." </span>She slowly looked up at Melody and the sky tore itself in two, even as it tried to repair itself the tear only grew wider.<span style="color: #666600"> "I'm not a monster. I've done everything in my power to not hurt people, I've... given everything I have to help people whether I love them or not, I ran from my responsibilities as Empress and I hid... but I'm not a monster. You know me better than anyone else, I would never hurt Ashia or those children... I haven't even hurt your people when they invade my sanctuary, I give them as many warnings as it takes to make them leave. You know that."</span><div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
