Ash's eyes widened. That wasn't something he expected to hear. Out of everything so far, this felt the most unreal.
"You said… You have a soul space inside mine? How's that even possible? Every soul only has one soul space. Even if yours is inside here, how are we both sharing it?"
No answer came right away. The silence didn't feel empty. It felt like the voice was thinking, searching for the right words. Then, finally, it spoke.
"I'm sorry, Ash. I really don't know what's going on. I don't understand any of this soul stuff. I don't even know how I got here. I just… I want to see the world out there. I want to leave this place, but I can't. I don't know how."
The voice cracked like it was holding back something that had been buried for too long.
