Eon's words made it sound like he was not going to come with us. I was not the only one who picked it up either.
"E-Eon, what are you saying? Are you not going to come with us? N-No, I don't want that."
Nyx almost burst out into tears as she spoke. Her voice sounded wet, and she looked almost heartbroken at the fact that Eon wouldn't be coming with us.
Erebus's hands also closed into a tight fist around my pants and almost tugged them down.
"I am afraid that it wouldn't be right for me to come back with you. As the guardian of Goddess Helia, the griffin cannot leave the sacred grounds for too long. And now that I am bound to him, I cannot leave for long either. But that should not stop you both from living your lives."
Eon sounded like a grown-up when he spoke these words. His eyes looked sadly at the twins in front of him, and Nyx's small body shook as emotions took over her.
"N-No, then I also—"
