Day 4: Today my father's job may have just destroyed the downside as one of the dump trucks fell through to the downside and the world is saying that it is an archeological find. When Talon saw that on the TV, he ran to the downside saying that the fates were coming back at him. Not waiting even a single moment, I chased him to the tunnels again and lost him trying to use my fine hairs on my arm to direct me with the breeze (the way downsiders get around in the dark). Then a train almost hit me until Talon pushed me against the wall until the train passed.
When I saw that his chain shirt was ripped off, I felt his back and it was bleeding all the way down. Then he led me to the nearest ladder and said, "You will never come looking for me or even think about me." I replied "What do you mean? What are you saying?" "It is as though we never met" - then he vanished. I felt lost as if I was back in the tunnel again and he was lost forever. Or so he thought.
