I looked at Felix squarely in the eye. “I’m going to fight for you. You said it yourself, that we’re in this together. We’re partners, right? So I’ll fight to watch your back. It’s the same reason I’m out here trying to save Sile. There aren’t very many people in the world who care what happens to me. You, Sile, Beckah, Katty, even Mavrik are pretty much the only ones. So I’ll do what I can to protect you, even if that means fighting in a war that’ll end up being a no-win situation for me either way. It’s worth it.”
