Decision To Send Her Away

"The decision has been made. Gregor, you will go with my knights this very instant and leave your daughter there."

"Father, I won't—"

"I am giving you the chance to see her for the last time. Regardless if it is you or even the servants, I do not care as long as that cursed child is left on that mountain." 

Just as he was about to dismiss his son, he recalled something. 

"By my name as the King of Valor, I decree that after leaving that cursed child in the haunted mountain, you are to immediately report back to me and will not be allowed to set foot on that mountain ever again."

Gregor knew he had to listen to his father. Like a puppet with its strings pulled, he stood up carrying the little princess in his arms. He could only hope that another miracle would occur—since she was not meant to die now, then she would continue to survive till the end.
