《Son of the Eternal Eclipse》Chapter 15: To Find a Demon Soldier
Advertisement
Syren and Tyra left the building back onto the streets. There were plenty of akkedis and knights running around. The whole town was just a chaotic mess. But Syren was convinced that he could fix it. He figured that the masked knight that killed the mother and child was the demon he was looking for. He just couldn't believe that a sane person would actually commit such a crime.
"Good job, Syren," Tyra said sarcastically, "We have only just been in this town for an hour, and we made enemies with both the citizens and the military police."
Syren became unsure what to do. He knew that the akkedis didn't want his help. And he certainly didn't think that knights would just ignore what he did. He looked down depressed and Tyra tried to cheer him up.
"I'm fine. So, it didn't go exactly as planned, but at least we have an idea of who to look for. If we can find this demon disguised as a knight, we can show both sides that the fighting was all just a demonic plot. We just got to find some knight who just doesn't want to show his... face," Syren said as he looked at all of the soldiers around the town. All of them covered their faces. "It might be a little harder than I hoped, but a clue's a clue."
Tyra could tell that Syren was still uneasy. And as Syren spoke those words, Tyra was certain that things wouldn't be that easy.
She replied in a somber tone, "Syren, even if we find this demon and show both sides that it was responsible, it won't just cancel everything out. Even if they sit down and make peace today, it won't get rid of decades - maybe even centuries - of wrongdoings. If this demon didn't cause this, all of this would have eventually have happened. This whole place is a powder keg. All it takes is just one spark. I've seen other places just like it." She took a deep breath. "Syren, it's alright. You can't save everybody, and you're not responsible for everything bad that's happening in this world."

Syren just fell silent. He had no words. Even when Tyra said that he wasn't responsible, he still felt that it was his fault. The eclipse above his head was still there. As long as it was, he put the blame of everything on himself because of it. But Tyra's words did speak true. This world was ugly and malicious long before he was even born. Deep down, he knew that not everything was due to his own mistakes, but at the same time, he did. And those opposite feelings constantly tore him apart from the inside.
"I sense it!" Whisper shouted.
Syren jumped up in shock and Tyra was confused as to why.
"What's wrong, Syren? Was it something I said?" she exclaimed.
"Whisper, you sense where the demon is?" Syren asked.
"Sort of. This place is strange and murky, but I just needed one little chill to know where the demon is," Whisper said as he pointed to a strange, abandoned building, "It's in there. I can feel its presence like I did with Gula just before it was about to consume you whole."
Syren looked at Tyra with a smile. "Follow me," he said as he took her arm. She blushed as the two of them went off. Syren smiled, but he was just anxious to just get this whole ordeal over with. He just wanted this eternal eclipse to just fall.
