Khonshu tipped his head back and laughed at the reply, the sound coming out like a cawing bird. "So depressing!" he observed. "Has that sad shell you inhabit made you so jaded?"

Khonshu swept his tattered cape closer, his broad smile twisting the bandages on his face. "I want you to stop hiding," he replied simply. "I've missed my daylight."

"It has not. I did what I had to do. You don't understand. I don't exist without him, too. If I'm here, he's..."

The Sentry dipped his head, hair drooping over his eyes. There was an unsettling feeling in his chest; that feeling heroes get when they know they've let their public down. When they've let someone who needs them down. Would he have given up if Lindy were here?

"He could kill you. Everything. I needed to stop him for good."

Khonshu reached out, touching the fallen strands of Ra's hair, wanting to see those glowing eyes uncovered. It was strange to see a God so frightened. Khonshu's servant remembered him differently from when they had met last, back in the world in which they had been born, instead of this shadowy sister of it.

"Who, Ra?" Khonshu inquired, voice deceptively tender. "Who frightens you so, daylight incarnate?"

"Don't you know?" The Sentry stared forward again, his voice as stern as ever, but still quiet. Heat and light sizzled from his eyes like fire.

"The Void will come back. I finally thought he could stay gone forever, but it's impossible."

And the his eyes flickered back to normalcy.

"It's impossible."

Khonshu was quiet for a moment before he dared to touch Ra's face. His cheek was warm, the fire that blazed from golden eyes heating the skin. It felt good to touch, when such cold had gotten down into his bones.

"What is impossible to a God?" asked Khonshu. "To fear this dark half is to let it rule."

Khonshu's own avatar had shown that lesson very clearly.

"I don't fear it. But I can't ignore it, either. He always comes back, don't you see?" His eyes flicked over, meeting the gaze opposite his and holding it sternly.

"It just is. It's how it always is."
