[ Edgin wants to keep running, but Kirk stops him. He falls to his knees, crying now as he watches the night terror run off, as he watches his daughter be taken from him. Maybe some part of him hopes she's still alive, since he'd never seen her body, and that's what the dream suggests. Or maybe he just wanted to torment himself with the unknown--all the horrible things he could conjure up about what might happen next.
He slams his fist into the ground and the skin breaks, blood dripping down the side. But it dulls in comparison to the pain of his emotions; the breaking of his heart. They're so strong, maybe Kirk can feel them too, through their connection. ]
