Fury. He grabbed Irial's arm and hissed. "There's no way I'd let you change me back. There's no way in hell that I'd want the life I had before. What you did was the best thing that anyone's ever done for me, Irial." Travis felt his eyes sting and he blinked, letting go of Irial.

"There's nothing for you to be sorry for," he said, regretting losing his temper. "I'm the one that has to apologize. I didn't keep my promise." Travis held the pendant in his hand.
