*Wren, wrapped in chains, suspended in front of the face of the Wretched Shadow of Fear, a large earthen beast spilling sand as it laughs in victory*
"I was holding on to the safety of the chains when there was nothing else to hold on to. All these things that I surrounded myself with to feel better: food, money, stuff. I denied myself health and trust because I was afraid of losing them. I believed it was better to stay my distance, but distance is cold and lonely.
These chains we've made tell me that I never wanted to let go of life, or of the people waiting for me out there.
I wanted to be close. I am now. I'm right next to you."
*Wren breaks free of the chains and wrecks WSF's shit*
