"Our time as gods has been far from easy," Ekal said. "Aila and I were already close when we were called, but as time went on, we became closer still. While we were young, we made decisions that led to Aila's first pregnancy. Unfortunately, about the same time, I found out that I had to leave Nycisia and would be living in Inailia for... well, we didn't know for how long. I broke her heart, and she caught the eye of another."
"While he pretended to care for me, as soon as it was evident that I was bearing Ekal's children, he became possessive of me," Aila said, biting back tears. "With the help of my beloved friend, Nyera, I survived the pregnancy and delivered two beautiful children--a son and a daughter. Sadly, they did not even live a whole day, and--"
Here, the tears that were steadily building up in Aila's voice spilled over. Ekal placed a hand on her shoulder, and kissed her head gently.
"They were killed because they were not his own. I returned just minutes too late, and found my beloved crumpled on the floor, three scars over her eye, and no infants to be seen. Had I been there a few minutes earlier, I would have been able to save them all--but that is in the past, and we have learned better because of it."
Maybe I'm foolish, maybe I'm blind
Thinking I can see through this to see what's behind
Got no way to prove it, so maybe I'm lying
Take a look in the mirror, what do you see
Can you see it clearer, or are you deceived in what you believe?
Don't ask my opinion, don't ask me to lie
Then beg for forgiveness for making you cry
'cause I'm no prophet or Messiah
You should go looking somewhere higher
I'm only human, I make mistakes
I'm only human, I do what I can
I'm only human, that's all it takes to put the blame on me
Don't put the blame on me
"Human", Rag'n'Bone Man
