Unmask Yourself: No Fear - Chapter Update (6) ❀࿐
The updates are going slowly, but I can't really do anything about it right now. The story unfolds at its own pace as if I don't really get any saying. Sometimes (more often than not) I imagine that the stories themselves are living things that just use us, humans, as vessels to come into this world. I've read this somewhere and I think that there's some truth about it.

The man’s look pierced Ruka’s soul one more time. “That is not negotiable.” She felt relief. They didn’t take away what she loved. A flicker of irrational hope smouldered that they might one day change their minds and let her go. At the same time, her logical side knew better. This was a good middle ground… at least for the moment. “Understood.” Her voice floated softly and quietly, but still clear enough to be heard.
