Some time later, Duck is still standing on the bridge, staring into the water.
She's got lots of questions. But she can't seem to ask any of them aloud. She's sort of afraid of what she'll hear back.
I want to make sure, but . . . both Rue and Fakir say Mytho doesn't need a heart. And Mytho's suffering . . . so what is there to make sure?
It's at this point that the pendant around her neck interrupts her thoughts with a bright glow, and Duck's head jerks up.
"A heartshard!"
Then again, why should she be excited about that? Giving whatever it is back to Mytho will only make him suffer more. Rue and Fakir think it doesn't do any good, and Rue at least should know.
Slowly, she unbuckles the pendant from around her neck and holds it in her hand, staring down at it.
"Being Princess Tutu is pointless. I could quit, and -"
