Thought and Did

Dakshana’s eyes opened, and Chadstone felt something leap in his chest. He swiped a hand across his eyes and was horrified to see inky blackness - like his blood - dripping down his skin. Another quick swipe and all the evidence was gone. But when she looked at him, everything he had hoped to say vanished in an instant.

“Chadstone,” she said, and her brow furrowed, as if she were confused. She cast a glance at her surroundings, tried to sit up. He was there, sliding an arm around her waist to support her.

“I thought I died.”

He thought, You did.

So that is her first death. When does she become an Omni? Has she always been so?
