Chapter 0282

‘There’s that soul shit again.’ Aero mutters. ‘I don’t understand how someone can see a soul.’

“Are you saying her soul is tainted?” I ask Abraxas. I wasn’t sure what to think of him saying he could see souls. At one time, I also didn’t think someone could be bound four times. I’ve learned a lot in the last couple of years.

“Everyone’s soul starts off as a small ball of light. It grows as the person grows, gradually taking shape of the person. Sometimes, it gets to a certain size and never grows anymore because a person is trapped in a cycle that they can’t get out of. Others, like those who have experienced levels of trauma, develop cracks. When the cracks meet, the soul breaks along with that person.”

“How bad are hers?”

“She should have broken long ago.”

“Is that how the darkness got in?”

“No.”
