That woman from his dreams, since she shouldn't be a stranger but someone he cherished, then why was it in his earlier dreams, he had seen her holding a knife to his chest?
Was she an enemy? A lover? A lover turned enemy?

'What if rather than her ancestor…Ember is that very woman?'
He almost scoffed at how stupid he was being, yet he could not drive the strange feeling away.
'Though they looked different, their resemblance is too uncanny to say they are not the same person. But how can that be? Am I thinking too much or…?'
