Axorn shook his head for a moment and took a deep breath before replying. This wasn't quite what he expected, but it was good of her to ask questions.
"First of all," he began, "I passed out becuase of the extreme mental trauma I was experiencing. The shards had nothing to do with it. Next, I'm not sure whether or not Max has entered the Omniverse, I'll have to ask him when he's awake, it seems like he passed out himself after exerting so much power. About looking for you... what would you think if someone who just looked like they got shot in the head was suddenly showed up in front of you and they were completely fine? I'd rather wait then potentially freaking out a newly found friend. I'm also very grateful that you went out of your way to save me. I'm sorry for worrying you but there was nothing I could really do about the situation. It's just one of those moments in life where you're powerless to do anything even if you really want to."
Axorn sighed and looked out at the Colosseum floor where the sounds of battle still resonated. "People get a little awkward around me after finding out about the mask, which is just natural instinct. I don't blame them. I would have told you earlier but I completely forgot about it until just now. I've been preoccupied with the new and strange things going on around me. But really, the mask is just like your bracelet. It's a communication device as well as a memento of our lives before all of this." Axorn gestured to the scenery around them of snacking fans, battling competitors and bustling crowds in the arena around them.
Axorn turned back to face Alexyana. "I'm truly sorry about all of this. I should have told you earlier. Could you please forgive me?"

"If you truly want to save the world, you'll need to withstand it's flames."
