I thought I would have every bit of mercy in me to spare Alistair a slight moment away from death. The thought came to me that maybe it was never my right to kill him, and I should lend my father the opportunity to make that decision himself. He is my father's brother, and it's their dispute.
But when I thought the chaos was about to come to an end, things took an unexpected turn.
And it's all my fault.
The shattering glass had everyone intensify their screaming, and I hear my father shouting at me, thinking that I'm causing it. But no, even I bent down to take cover when the walls followed by crumbling down. I lost control of my power, causing me to lose my ability to float in the air.
I come crashing down the ground in between two ladies with beautiful dresses but terrified faces. Thankfully, I wasn't that high up, and I manage to get myself up quickly to know what is happening with the ballroom.
