[ It was almost over. Or so she convinces herself. She was so close to ending it all. To ending the war and suffering in Ravka. To ending him. To ending herself. She had finally seen the way to end it all...
And now she was in this other world. In another war.
Alina needs to clear her head. Parties make her stomach turn right now. She was just at a beautiful feast. And then it had turned into a blood bath. She could still see people she had once called friends split down the middles, guts spilled on the floor as their loved ones cradled their lifeless bodies. She could still hear the queens screams as Vasily lay mere feet from her without an arm. She could still see Genya... or what remained of Genya.
Everything in her felt cold. Parties were nothing to her now. She didn't have the energy for them. So she found her way to a place called the Station. Somewhere away from everything, where she could think and process her own life before trying to figure out how to handle this world.
That was when she saw him. No, she didn't see him. She felt him. She felt him to her core before her she ever laid eyes on him. ]
