Each day her song brought warmth on his dying heart and he then begun to hope.

On one rainy day while passing the Hollthor’s forest on their trip to a nearby lake, their carriage was ambushed of yet to unknown group of people. Much blood was shed during the bloody bath but the young blood and his attendant were the only ones spared. In the darkness of the gloomy sky sacrifices and sins were made in order to be granted freedom.
