A recurring dream from a fateful night haunts Varian. With a past he couldn't forgive himself for and a future he abandoned, his life in the present is in tatters. But when you're alive, there's hope. The hope comes one day in an unexpected form. The painful past, the meaningless dream and the unexpected way forward force him to make a choice. Stay broken and remain in the sorrow of the past he couldn't change. Or. Pick himself back together and try for one last time, to find the truth about his own dream and its connection to his unforgivable past, all in the hopes of forgiveness of himself, by himself. https://discord.gg/kBKaTtsrpb
"Huh?"
"What is he talking about?"
"Is he cursing his brother to die?"
"Weren't they close? Is it all an act?"

The King clenched his fists and the entire capital felt a heaviness in the air. Glancing at a one-armed guard, he said. "It seems Prince Shak's illness is more serious than we thought. Take 'good care' of him."
The one-armed guard, reputed as a maniacal torturer, nodded with a big smile. He never tortured any royal and decided to exploit this opportunity to the fullest.
Prince Shak's body shook as he realized his fate. But looking at his brother's bewildered face, he gathered all the air in his lungs and yelled. "Brother, please listen to me! You can ask any psychics to test if I'm lying. I beg you!"
Prince Sohan bit his lip and was about to step forward.
