“Mother...”
Rion’s chest heaved up and down. In his dream, he replayed the night when his mother was killed to protect him.
“Mom, don’t go! Don’t go there, Mom!” The sound of the rain muffled the voice of little Rion. He called out to his mother, who was walking towards the enemy and….
Swooshh…
BLARR!
Under the dazzling lightning followed by an explosion of thunder that made the land shake, Rion saw dozens of arrows shot and pierced his mother’s body from head to toes. His eyes, that were forced to open in the pouring rain, could see the blood gushing out as soon as the arrows pierced Queen Ahana's body.
His hazel’s eyes quivered.
“Mother...” Rion’s tears flowed and Odette was surprised to see that.
Rion was still dreaming. This time, he saw that his young self had just been thrown into a dark room. His face was covered in bruises. He shrank back as his grandfather stepped towards him with a cold, emotionless face.
SLAP!
