Aether took Voidpiercer out, noble blood flowing down slowly from the pure black steel onto the guards, falling through the cracks, and onto his hand.
This is what he hated about his blade. The guard may block slashes and such, but never blood. Every time, he got painted by those he killed. His hands had to endure the take the sin of those who had lost their light because of him.
Yet it was different this time, since... he hadn't ended the life of a stranger, but his own. It was weird. He was alive, yet at the same time, he could see a dead body exactly like his in front of him.
From where did it appear, to whom did it belong?
Was it him?
He never understood alternative realities, and never did he think he would find himself in one. If he killed himself from another timeline, was it still him, had he killed himself, or another person?
