Ready To Sacrifice

Arlan's Perspective

That unfortunate day in the village of Wimark, the day when Arlan discovered Oriana was Philip's granddaughter, a shockwave coursed through him, leaving his senses momentarily paralyzed. As he observed her hurried and fearful approach to her injured grandfather, it felt as if his entire world had crumbled in an instant.

How could this be? How much more his destiny could be in ruins?

This young woman had been his solace, a source of relief from the silent pains he bore. However, now she seemed destined to become the catalyst for a new ordeal. Yet, that wasn't his primary concern. In that critical moment, all he could focus on was Oriana's impending danger.

Helplessly witnessing her tend to her grandfather's injuries, his mind raced with thoughts on how to shield Oriana from the imminent threat that could jeopardize her life. The looming danger took shape in the form of a witch eagerly anticipating her arrival at the palace.
