Marcus gave a short nod and set the paper aside. He looked around the homestead and I could see his eyes linger on the scarred land, burnt buildings, and charred trees. This once beautiful land was ruined by Tobias and his cult. It was a painful cut that ran deep in both of us. Tobias was once a boy who loved the forest and its inhabitants. The fact that he remembered his past caused such hatred in him to turn against everyone and everything he lived through.. it was like a contrast to Archfey. Even though I regained my memories, I still remained the same person. In that instant after my Awakening, many would have thought otherwise and my show of magical prowess not seen in the world for centuries; yet my personality and being was still the same. I didn’t immediately turn evil and sought to kill everyone who I was once close to.
