Despite everything, I… still care in some way.”For a moment, there was silence. Michael studied her emotions, facial expression, demeanor, and attitude— searching for deception, but found none.“Thank you for the warning,” he cautiously replied. “I hope you find the path you’re looking for.”Michelle chimed in a shaky smile and turned heading out until his voice halted her tracks.“Who are these unknown allied figures?
