Zachary brought Aethelwolf to his humble abode. He felt a bit embarrassed because of his poor living conditions, but Aethelwolf didn't seem to mind this.
To save himself from further embarrassment, he immediately led Aethelwolf to where his wife was.
Aethelwolf could smell the strong scent of medicinal herbs inside the room.
He saw a woman lying on the bed with her eyes shut tight. She looked thin and sickly with her pale face and dry lips.
Looking at her condition, Aethelwolf furrowed his eyebrows.
