"When the links of life are broken and a child has to part, there is nothing that will ever heal a parents heart". The devastated king couldnt bear the loss, and breathed his last In Maria's very hands, his last words to her were, My queen Maria, I look back to regret how I have ignored you, I couldnt keep my promise of a forever, even though every night had been lonely without you, every breath had been wasteful without you, every victory had been incomplete without you, I continued to seclude you. I shall repent for my sins. I will continue to love you in my afterlife and yours will be the only name that shall stay on my lips. Live long to cherish the magic we made~ I announce Yulia kiev as my rightful heir to the throne.
