"Yes! Your other self!
The one who fought with Zarveth was your other self!"
Nux answered proudly, as if his words made perfect sense to everyone present here but—
"...huh?"
Sharnoth blinked. Now she was even more confused. Not just her, the other women were confused as well, especially Lane.
"Her other self...?"
She muttered, pointing at Shadow, who no longer looked like her other self at all. Nux turned towards Lane, knowing exactly what she was thinking, and shook his head—
"No, this isn’t the same case as yours.
It is much simpler."
"Simpler...?"
Lane muttered softly.
"Mhm."
Nux nodded.
"There have been similar cases in the past, quite a few actually. It is usually known as split personality."
"Split Personality?"
"Mhm, two personalities sharing the same body."
Nux nodded. He then turned towards Sharnoth and—
"In your case, your current personality is much stronger."
"Are you saying... there is another being living inside me...?"
Sharnoth tilted her head in confusion.
"Well, theoretically... you are the one living in her body."
Nux corrected casually and Sharnoth...
"What...?"
She felt like her world was falling apart. Nux then looked into her eyes and—
"Answer honestly, how much of your past do you truly remember?"
"My past...?"
"Your life back in Nocthys, then your time in Aurendor, and the time after Zylarith—how much do you remember?"
Nux asked in more detail.
"Do you remember your mother’s face? Your father’s face? The subordinates who worked for your family? The traitors who turned to the enemy the moment your father fell? Do you remember everything?"
"I... remember my mother’s face..."
Sharnoth answered, her voice, however, was oddly low.
"Do you?"
Nux narrowed his eyes.
"Can you draw her for me?"
"...I do not remember it that accurately."
"What about your father?"
Nux questioned and Sharnoth slowly shook her head.
She did not remember.
And Nux did not even bother asking about the subordinates. Sharnoth was quite close to her father and mother. If she didn’t even remember their faces, then the subordinates were obviously out of the question.
The rest of the women stared at Sharnoth, a little taken aback, and Sharnoth felt compelled to explain herself.
"All of that was more than a hundred thousand years ago. It is obvious I won’t remember everything in detail!"
However, instead of answering her question, Nux waved his hand. The Energy of Genesis gathered, forming a clone of a being from his memories—
"What about him? Do you remember him?"
He questioned, staring at Sharnoth, and her expression turned grim.
"He raped my mother thirteen times."
The answer came automatically. It surprised even her. After all, this happened a hundred thousand years ago as well...
To think she remembered this face and everything he did as if the memory was fresh in her head—
It... it made no sense, especially when she couldn’t even picture her mother, the one who was suffering through everything this man did.
"What about the time you spent with Zylarith? How much of that do you remember?"
Nux asked another question, and this time, Sharnoth turned silent. She had never thought about it before since everything felt so natural, but now...
It didn’t.
Did Zylarith do something to her?
She wondered in her head.
"Answer the question, Sharnoth."
And as if knowing her mind was distracted, Nux spoke up, pulling her out of her reverie.
"I... I remember the time when I acted as a mercenary and gathered allies, later taking over Khaemorr and everything after that..."
Sharnoth answered after giving it a thought. It was quite strange. Her memory before this time was so blurry that, other than a small overview of what she actually did, she did not remember anything at all. Her mind could not recall even a single beast out of the hundreds of thousands she had killed.
And surprisingly enough, everything changed after she became a mercenary and started gathering allies. From here on out, she remembered every detail, every face she met, everything she did—clearly.
It was almost as if... someone had messed up her memories before that time. Other than everything that happened in Aurendor, she did not remember most of the things or had a very blurry memory of what she did.
"Makes sense."
Nux nodded to himself. The more he heard her talk, the more assured he grew. Sharnoth and the rest of the women stared at Nux, waiting for an explanation, and he began.
"Sharnoth was born with Darkness Element. That element was then forcibly taken from her, and her body was changed into something capable of handling a completely different form of Energy.
"Because it is not you."
It was her.
The current her.
"Well, it was something the real you chose to do.
As I said, calling her the real you or your true self is incorrect.
"Also—"
Suddenly, Nux called out.
"You didn’t exactly ’take over’ your other self. She isn’t gone. She is still here."
Those words attracted Sharnoth’s attention as she quickly recalled where this all began—
"So the one who fought Zarveth..."
"Mhm, that was your other self. And trust me when I say this—she was indeed a monster through and through.
I saw Zarveth’s memories, specifically of his battle with you, and I felt his emotions clearly.
He was scared.
One of the strongest Eternals in all of the Universe was scared of you."
"He was scared of my other self."
Sharnoth clarified.
"That is you. You just... do not have a normal relationship with her."
"..."
Sharnoth didn’t know what to say about it.
"So... how does it work?"
Suddenly, Amaya asked a question.
"How do she and her other self switch? They aren’t present all the time, right? She cannot talk to her other self. Or would she be able to do that in the future?
Would she have a second body as well?"
This was what the Devourer was worried about the most.
She already knew Sharnoth was going to join them whether she liked it or not—it was all set in stone. She wanted to know if they would need to pointlessly add another one into the mix just like they did before.
The woman stared at Lane and Shadow and then—
"Tsk."
She snorted before turning towards Nux, waiting for an answer, and Nux just laughed.
He could literally look into her eyes and tell what she was thinking—it was that apparent.
His Devourer was indeed adorable.
"No, Sharnoth won’t have two bodies.
She would need to share the one she has with her other self.
So stop eyeing Lane and Shadow like that."
"Good."
The Devourer nodded.
