The news of the return of the Dark Lords and Annalise had already reached the people of the Cursed Castle but unlike the happy environment that should have been present there, both the place and tge people there looked gloomy.
The iron gate of the castle was covered in dead vines, and the gardens seemed lifeless as the grass, trees, and vines looming over the walls had turned dark over the past half month. The fountain was no longer sprinkling cool water and the inside of the castle seemed to be in a similar state as the exterior.
"What are we going to say to the lords and my lady? They left the responsibility of the castle to us and we just watched this beautiful place wither to nothing without being able to do anything. I feel so bad right now that I don't even want to face the masters." Sera told the others as they all sat outside on the porch.
