"Elijah!" I shouted, reaching for him, but he had already pulled the map from the bag. My heart pounded, disbelief rentingto the spot as I watched him tumi and begin walking toward Mother.

The world seemed to slow down, each second stretching into an eternity, I couldn't believe my eyes, couldn't fathom what I was seeing.

But Elijah didn't stop. He kept walking, every step heavy with purpose and regret. My heart shattered with each footfall, pieces of my soul crumbling to dust. When he finally reached Mother, he didn't hesitate. He turned and handed her the map.
