Hero says "Ow, my head! Huh? What??"
He looks at me and then past me at all the bodies. Then he notices Mericel and his eyes go wide. He seems surprised to be alive and not tied up.
Hero says "Why am I alive? I won't tell you anything!"
"Mericel, introduce yourself and tell him your story. After you have heard her story you are free to go."
Hero says "What? Why would you let me go?"
"Because, I can tell from your aura that you are not corrupt like the others."
Mericel says "I am a ghost now but in life I was Second-Princess Mericel Feldster, daughter of King Raden. It was I who my father sacrificed to summon you heroes."
Hero says "We were told you were assassinated."
