Summary
"It's very rare for a Guide to survive the death of their Sentinel. A Bonded relationship is so symbiotic that it is difficult for one to live without the other. And that isn't taking into account the emotional backlash that the death of such a pillar would cause. Usually in the few cases where a Guide or a Sentinel survives the death of their partner, there is a child or other dependent involved. The majority of those Guide's and Sentinel's, after the bond to their partner is severed, their minds and senses are blown completely open. All of their shielding dies with their partner. But occasionally, a Guide looses their partner and they go Offline. Their shielding is gone but their minds are still closed. Something about the stress of the loss destroys the Guide's natural empathetic ability and, usually, their ability to empathize at all."
Tomoe is gone but Kotetsu survived. They declared him offline and Kotetsu did not argue. But Jake Martinez is about to expose a secret that Kotetsu has been hiding for five years.
