### Key events
- At a hunt, the infallible marksman misses a boar and is mocked by the others.
- In a childhood memory, a child who left the settlement alone is scolded, teased as a mountain warrior and great commander, comforted, and threatened playfully with broken legs to stop running away.
- After calling out Eden's name, the narrator apologizes and expresses remorse.
- The narrator decides to let go of the past, vowing never to repeat the foolish mistake; surrendering to loss means losing someone else.
- The narrator reveals that they and Liam carried a burden together for years, and that Liam knows the truth but cannot bring himself to say it.
- A haunting voice accuses the narrator of forgetting it, trusting a stranger, and trying to erase sin by abandoning memories; it says surviving itself is a sin and that the narrator should die like the one who died.

### Content
LIAM AND I CARRIED THAT BURDEN FOR YEARS.
BOTH OF US.
YOU THINK LIAM DOESN'T KNOW?
HE JUST CAN'T BRING HIMSELF TO SAY IT.

...PLEASE LOOK AT US TOO.
IT'S TIME TO LET GO OF THE PAST...

?

IF THE PRICE OF BEING CONSUMED BY LOSS

IS LOSING SOMEONE ELSE,
THEN I MUST NEVER

REPEAT THAT FOOLISH MISTAKE AGAIN.

BECAUSE IF I KEEP LIVING THAT WAY,

I'LL END UP PROTECTING NOTHING AT ALL.

FINE. WHATEVER.
LET'S DO THIS...

WHAT THE HECK!
HOW DID YOU MISS THAT?
YOU NEVER MISS A SINGLE SHOT...
EVEN THE BOAR'S PROBABLY LAUGHING AS IT RUNS AWAY!

ARE YOU OKAY?

...I'M A LITTLE COLD.

DID YOU FORGET ME?

ARE YOU REALLY GOING TO FORGET ME AND LIVE HAPPILY?
SO NOW,

YOU TRUST THAT OUTSIDER MORE THAN ME?
DO YOU THINK ABANDONING YOUR OWN MEMORIES WILL ERASE YOUR SIN?

YOUR SIN IS THAT YOU SURVIVED.

SO IT'S ONLY FAIR THAT YOU DIE LIKE I DID.
EDEN.

...I'M SORRY.
...|...

I SHOULDN'T HAVE DONE THAT...

EDEN DIN.

YOU LITTLE BRAT!
I TOLD YOU NOT TO WANDER OUTSIDE THE SETTLEMENT ALONE, YOU BRAT!

YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW DANGEROUS THE WORLD IS!
SO WHAT IF IT'S DANGEROUS?!
YOU THINK A WARRIOR OF THE MOUNTAINS
IS SCARED OF SOMETHING LIKE THAT?

OH, LOOK AT OUR GREAT GENERAL!!!!
GET OVER HERE, YOU LITTLE...!!!!
HEY, HEY, IT'S OKAY. DON'T CRY.
I OUGHT TO BREAK HIS LEGS OR SOMETHING SO HE CAN'T RUN OFF AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!

MISTER!
