Ella had only met Luther once, and she would hardly call them friends. Still, the man had been memorable, and she was trying to focus on the world again, instead of on the roof and missing sisters.
Their prior meeting had been two years ago, in a bar after Ella's relationship with William had come to a screeching halt. It was a dark time for Ella, one in which she'd lost herself in too many bottles to care to recall, before remembering how much she hated seeing her father drunk, how much she hated cleaning up after him and holding his hair as he vomited.
The night she'd med Luther, she'd found herself in the same predicament - kneeling over a porcelain toilet in a public bathroom with someone she barely knew holding back her hair. It had been the last time it had happened.
But even with all that, she remembered Luther and his search. She remembered arguing with him that it was personal, despite his repeated insistence that it wasn't. And when he'd popped up on the forums after all this time, she was saddened to see his life was still being consumed by the need for revenge.
She left work a few minutes early, and she made her way to Bellum Letale. It was warmer out today, and she looked up at the cloudless dusk sky as she waited for Luther to appear.
