【战锤40k同人作品翻译】 Ennui 第二十八章：异端 Heresy(19)

Alessa drew away from me breathless and flushed, but smiling.
“We will be alright, Isarae,” Alessa said, as if she knew precisely the thoughts that were in my head. “I promise… remember?”
“The Emperor protects.”

It was here that I had seen the woman I would fall hopelessly in love with. It was here that I would encounter the first embers of my salvation. It was here that I would lay my blade upon the ground and accept the shadow of death and the hunger of the laughing gods for the sake of Alessa’s smile.
