The luxurious room, dominantly in gold and emerald colors should have amazed Edith when she entered it. But… Edith didn't care about all the luxury furniture or the beauty of the interior. Edith's eyes focused on the body of a man in a night golden robe that had turned red because of his blood.
King Darius' body was torn apart by the hooves and fangs of a beast. Those beasts of unusual size had killed the King of Xiantra. Edith had to swallow her disappointment when she saw that King Darius had died. Edith felt guilty, how could she ignore Xavier's orders. Edith had failed.
[Just to keeping His Majesty safe, I can't. What else will happen when I become supreme mage?] Edith felt inferior, love was truly blind and made her a fool and a failure!! Love made her weak.
[Forgive me, lord Xavier. I let you down.] Edith screamed in her heart.
