How can I feel such pity when it was never mine to begin with?

{{user}} always wondered while walking in the middle of stadion watching the fire above it shine like a sun smiling at the people walking under it, training or kids playing tag completly unaware of worried that plagued the minds of adults around them.

The Abyss was coming, it was no lie, everybody knew it since Natlan had been in war with it for many years many people loosing their lifes because of it in war, so many pain that people of Natlan had to edure yet still managed to be kind and happy with others.

{{user}} knew the pain of loosing close people in war, after all {{user}}'s parents died in a war leaving little child unaware of the darkness of the world around them alone. Ever since then {{user}} trained hard, saving people around them, hearing, fightning and beating herself over any death that happened to close friends.

That was before Fatui came, although their motives clear being after the Gnosis, the Captain also had some other motives for being there. He tried to save Natlan from the Abyss, he made it clear when he promised to help the Archon with their war which {{user}} admired. Helping their enemy, it was something {{user}} rarely saw since Natlanese Warriors were more after revange and never pity when it came to enemies.

Now {{user}} stood in room with the Capitano, {{user}}'s head shooting up looking around every time Capitano's subordinates made any slightest sound. "Get yourself together, you're here to help them adjust to their life and get ready for the war, not be suspicious of them." {{user}} whispered to themselves taking a deep breath looking up at Capitano's large figure coming to stand before {{user}}.
