As the pain faded away, Tavyna rocked herself back and forth, cradling her hand against her chest as she shed tears of fear and sorrow. I can't... Free him... I can't... her panicked thoughts flooded her mind and made her body shake uncontrollably. Whatever had happened, in that moment of her willing him to be freed, something had happened and it had retaliated heavily. Tavyna cried harder as she realized that the ring was a curse that she wasn't ever going to break, not without hurting Nassir in the process.
His voice took her attention, asking for him to see. She wasn't sure what he wanted until she glanced up at him. With his hand held out, she assumed he wanted her hand, the one that shook and stung horribly. Tavyna only curled further into herself, sobbing harder than ever before and shaking her head 'no' at him. The crying was so bad she could hardly get words from her mouth.
"S-sorry... So-rry... Nassir..." she took several deep breathes, the weeping continuing though despite her best efforts, "Hurt you... I hurt you!"
With that, Tavyna doubled over, curling up into a ball on the floor. Her sobs loud and filled with anguish as she tried to speak at the same time, "Can't free you... I can't! I hurt you! I'm... Sorry...!"
