Gravis felt a pit in his stomach.
Wendy looked down at the ground. "You can probably guess what happened next. The executioner had been sent here to kill my husband," her voice quietened. "He never stood a chance."
Gravis also sighed. Wendy went through a lot of hardships. The closest person to Gravis that ever died was Stella, back in his homeworld, which couldn't be compared with losing one's love. They had only been very close friends, and Gravis had still been young.
Wendy continued narrating. "I was devastated for months, and I only felt pain. How foolish was I to believe that Heaven sent my husband back to me? I tried to cope with the situation by learning about history because I wanted to understand why that happened. I went to a city and learned all I could about Heavenborn and how they acted."
