The unexpected event

With a newfound determination burning in her eyes and suppressed fury barely contained, she peered down at me and spoke with a chilling tone, "Orion, you have two options: either accompany me to the market square or wait until your gift awakens and join Reena to work on the farm. I won't allow you to make me bury your corpse prematurely, so those are the only two choices you get to pick."

The sheer absurdity of her response left me dumbfounded. I couldn't help but blurt out, "Are you serious?" The words echoed in the air as I searched her face for any sign of humour.
