First, I felt fear. But who wouldn't when they see their hand melt right off?
However, once I realized that the one I loved was still alive, I replaced my fear with resolve. I was sad too, because I knew I would not survive to enjoy more time with him if I saved him. Even so, I valued his life more than my own.
I succeeded, so even though it resulted in my death, I was relieved and happy, and felt a strange sense of peace in the very end.
