I suppose you are right. Perhaps I simply cannot accept his resolve to die.
[Melqal truly is a bleeding heart when it comes to anyone in need, but more so because Dohalim is his descendant. truly family, and he can't sit and watch one of his own kin suffer in silence. but Morax is also right: if Dohalim is unwilling to listen, then is there a point of trying? no, it's not a thought he wants to entertain... Melqal isn't sure he would be able to live with the guilt if the other half of him disappears.
after all, this is Dohalim's body, first and foremost. he... is an invader. perhaps in his selfishness of wanting to be reborn, he hadn't thought about the consequences. he wanted a second chance in life, but what about Dohalim's first? and not just him, but if Melqal were to be reborn to anyone else, would the same thoughts linger? or are they just exacerbated because of Dohalim? Melqal sighs softly, hand gripping onto Morax's tail just a little more. he's thankful for this gift, but the price to pay for it... he must make it up to Dohalim somehow. he must save him somehow.
as they reach the entrance, Melqal slows to a stop, before shifting around to stand in front of Morax]
Would you be able to change your appearance? As much as I miss your true image, I feel the Renans and Dahnans waiting outside would be less appreciative.
