Now I find myself busy taking a deep breath while looking at the view of the sky of the city of Eutimia, which will soon turn into the night on the balcony of the room where I have slept for the past three days.
If only everything I heard straight from Iskandar's mouth earlier was just part of my nightmare that would disappear once I managed to get out of my nightmare, no matter what.
My mind then recalled the incident this afternoon, where I was still in the gazebo in the garden behind Iskandar's residence with Iskandar and Beth, and Shanon. There, I sat on one of the chairs while listening to Iskandar's explanation of the curse removal ceremony they were talking about earlier.
"About the ceremony we held for you earlier, Marleen… It was all to remove the remnants of the curse from the knife that had stuck in your body three days ago before the curse reappeared and killed you by sucking all your life energy until there was nothing left in your body."
