Just when things were starting to calm down, I am taken on a little field trip by the Host. I was walking by myself when I was grabbed and suddenly found myself in the Path of Black Leaves. Again.
The Host was hard to focus on; when I looked at him, it was as if my eyes were being pushed away. Then I asked him why he brought me there. He told me that Choices was lying to me, and I should follow him, with Matthias. So predictable.
Naturally I refused, so he attacked me with a knife. Then the Tall One showed up, and the Host vanished. Instead of the standard suit, he wore a cloak. He spoke to me, I don't know how, and it's imprinted on my mind like a carving.
Me: Why did you protect me?
Him: Because you are more valuable than him.
Me: So, now I'm a tool?
Him: In a way, yes. But keep yourself safe, not all the work should be mine.
Me: Wait! Who on earth are you?
Him: The Guardian. You were right.
Then he vanished and I found myself back where I had been.
For it is from the Light that light shall dawn.
