"What do you mean by that?"
After everything that Heila told me about the Saint and the ruins, I knew there was some kind ritual and the fact of choosing someone to protect their folk in the times of need, but it was the first time when I heard about any kind of curse!
"My lord, this is nothing more my the opinion of my father. He used to tell me the stories about the history of our tribe, but whenever I wanted him to tell me more about the heroes… His face turned sour. But if I may ask, what I'm about to tell could be considered a heresy for the others, so if your lordship would be generous enough, I would prefer to explain myself in some… More private place."
Thinking about this, Gabriel's request was actually pretty sensible. With how Heila acted towards me, I doubt that she would intentionally withhold this kind of information from me, meaning that it wasn't something that everyone openly knew about.
