The desperation is still there, the need for him to leave, to at least know that he'll be safe when she sees him go, but this is a battle that she's losing quickly. It still hurts, everything hurts, and she can feel her heartbeat pounding in her temples, though she's sure it was never that soft before or that fast. The world tilts depending on where she looks, and Nill knows that she's dying, she can feel it.
But the ways she died before this were so awful, and this was awful too. She doesn't want to die alone again. She'd done some bad things after she left her world, some of them even awful things, but it's so unfair, and she's always hated being alone.
The tears she's been trying to hold back finally make their way onto her cheeks, and Nill's lips tremble as she tugs on his hand a little, to get him to look at her again.
