At one point, he seemed to see clearly from the enchantment enveloping him and was now overwhelmed with the desire to protect himself from this woman.

Horel noted the silence and emptiness of Marro Castle, which arose due to the fact that Lillian executed everyone right and left, even for the smallest offense.

He brought his country into decline. Personally.
