Capítulo 65: Lifeless Esme

He raised his hand and a glow appeared on his hand, illuminating the dark forest. 

Aleister followed the footsteps that led him inside the marshy parts of the forest. 

His steps came to a halt when he noticed that the marks had stopped near a bush. His gaze landed on the parchment that was stuck to it in the twigs.

As he reached towards it, a haze formed around his mind and all of a sudden the world turned dark. 

"Help... me..." A voice cried, it was filled with misery. 

His heart skipped a beat. That familiar voice...

When he opened his eyes, he found himself standing beside a river that had two cliffs on either side.

He looked around the place.

"No..." That voice cried again.

Aleister tilted his head and looked in the direction of the voice. 

His pupils shrank when he found Esme tied to a wooden cross with her hand chained to either side of the wood, she was wearing one of the gowns he had picked for her.
