"I never once regretted marrying you my dear. But you are no longer the same person whom I love." Waheb whispered in sorrow.

Evi just continued to bleed and laughed.

"I kinda knew you will be the one to kill me. But I won't go down without you. We are married remember?"

"We will be togther forever dear." Evi stated.

"No! you will burn in hell!" Zayin argued and got caught by Evi's suicide facade.

Her head got untangled from her body. Her heart got ripped out and her members scattered.

Cyprus and Ain did not make it. They only caught the explosion. The Tale Barears put on a simple funeral. They send out the old folks in a solemn ceremony. The Tale Bearers released the ashes as the sea washes the bloodshed left by yesterday. The once prosperous nation became desolate.

They were the only survivor.

Urchin cried till the last ash got washed a shore. If only he went to the flow then none of the tragic incident occurred. Ophir sat beside him and comforted the chubby boy.

"Don't blame your self too much. None of this is your doing."

Urchin looked up Ophir and said.

"Urchin was scared to loose my mother but Urchin did not forsee the many lives that will be affected just by saving a single life."
