Malevolence's blade sheared through Malan's Enulling once again. "Do you know what this sword is? Look at it! See your demise!" He lunged for Malan, blade pointed at the evil Enuller's heart. Where is Bat? He's the one we're all relying on.

All of that had gone out of Bat’s head along with the rest of the plan when Malevolence had betrayed them. 

He did take stock of his assets though. 

OH, RIGHT! 

Well, scud, how was he gonna get close?

"I guess . . ."

He swung his feet out over the ledge.

". . . I have a brother. He's younger than me by a few years. I hope . . . I hope he's going alright. My dad, too."

“I’m sure they will,” he said, trying to be reassuring. “I don’t know what happened to my dad, but he moved on when we lost my mom, so he’ll be okay.”

He wasn’t. He died of overstress and grief.

He nodded. "Thanks." He bit his lip and looked over at the waterfall.

"Do you think . . . the rest of my family is through there?"

“Probably,” Gaioh said. “We could just go in that direction, if you want. Stretch our legs and decide later.”

"What?" the boy exclaimed, head swiveling in Gaioh's direction. "No! No, I can't!"

“Can’t… what?”

"Go over-" he gestured wildly in the direction of the waterfall, "-there!"

“…why?”

"Because- just because! I don't know what's on the other side of that!"

He twiddled his fingers, anxious.

"And- and what if my brother or my dad come through? Who's going to help them?"

That was a good point. Gaioh traced the edge of the plateau. 

“I will,” volunteered a woman behind them. She was in her late thirties and didn’t appear to be anything remarkable. “Been meaning to come check on you for a while, kid.”

He turned his head to her.

"You . . . you will? You did?"

“Yeah. There’s just a lot of people out here, y’know? Came as soon as I could.”

"Oh. Do you . . . help a lot of people here?"

“Some. Depends. I’m not a therapist.”

He turned to face her fully.

"Do you . . . stay here, then? How long have you been here?"

She shrugged. “A long time. I don’t try and count. There’s no way to tell time anyhows.”

". . . Oh. O-okay."

He looked over his shoulder at the chasm.

"Well . . . thank you . . ."

“You seem pretty okay on your own, so I’ll leave you for now.” 

“Where are you going?” Gaioh asked. 

“Back to the shadows. Find the ones who gave up.”

"Gave up? What does that mean?"

“Yeah. They just sit there. For one reason or another, they don’t wanna move on.” 

“Can I come?” Gaioh asked. 

“Sure.”

He scrambled to his feet.

"Can- can I come, too?"

“Sure. If won’t be pretty, but sure.”

"Um . . . okay . . ."

She beckoned them over to the edge of the plateau. A small, foot-narrow series of very crude steps led down into the chasm. “You can just fall if you want. It won’t hurt.”

He shied away from the edge anyway.

Bold?

Malevolence staggered, turning his fall into a roll and managing to keep to his feet. He cursed, holding his side where he'd been kicked. "That's hardly enough to keep me down!"

Malan growled, slamming a fist into Love's face.

"Just... be ready with the Notblades." he said, staggering forward. This was a fight he couldn't win. But he would die trying, nonetheless.
