Bab 83: His father's Message

" Dear son, by the time you find this, I will no longer be alive. That isn't as important as having you heal and be healthy. Forgive your old man for being too weak to survive your mother's wicked ways.

She wasn't always like that, you know. She was the sweetest woman I knew before getting married to her. At the time, I didn't know about the curse that was cast upon her family. Truthfully, even if I knew, I would have still married her.

Being a direct descendant of princess Mariam, she was of royal blood. It just so happened that a curse was placed upon her ancestor by her twin sister Maimuna. The curse was one of greed and thirst for power.

Whether one could overcome it or not was dependent on their willpower. The curse first manifested in your mother after the loss of your twin sister. This must come as a shock to you. Pardon me for not letting you know earlier.
