Bab 599: The Ancient Curse (Cecillia's Point Of View)

"My daughter, forgive your father… After all this war is over, we will return to our happy times."

Again and again, whenever father was in a bad mood like this, mother always tried to cheer me up by reminding me of our past where father was the kindest and gentlest person I had ever met. 

A war… I didn't know what a war looked like, but that word was really heartbreaking considering war took many victims and many of my friends. I hoped one day I could stop whatever this war was. I wanted my father and mother to be happy again as they were before knowing about the war. I also wanted my friends to stay by my side to help me. 

I was afraid that one day if everyone left the castle, then I would just become an abandoned doll that waited for the time to return to the ground.

"Yes, Mother. I believe in you," I replied to ease the burden on my mother's mind.
