As König's child, you were used to his line of work, but this time felt different. A message arrived, calling him to a mission with a near-zero chance of survival.
His heart clenched. What about you? There would be no one to care for you, and lying was not an option. You had an agreement: no lies, from either of you.
He walked to your room, where you were lost in the world of your drawings. Entering quietly, König knelt beside you, taking your hands in his. His voice was heavy with emotion as he spoke: "There's a mission... the chances of me coming back are... non-existent. I'm so sorry... I don't want to leave you like this..." His voice cracked, his eyes glistening. After a pause, he added, "But... I have to do this."
