Time arrived to meet the witch. A carriage was ready and the couple hopped in, leaving for the forest.
Evelyn sighed and said, "I hope she agrees to inform everything."
"We don't have any other choice, Eve. It's her or nothing else," Elric replied to her.
Silence surrounded them as they two sat with grave expressions. Although Elric had accepted his fate already, the desire to spend the rest of his life made him meet the witch. The determination to lift the curse in Evelyn's eyes gave him some kind of assurance.
"It's good that we have informed Earl about the plan. There should be at least someone who knows about our whereabouts," he said.
She nodded her head and shook her leg anxiously. Reaching the outskirts of the forest, they both hopped out and sent back the carriage because of what had happened last time. They two entered the forest, not too deep but enough to have privacy so that no one can eavesdrop on them.
