Bab 543: The Day Arlan Was Born

"Then I shall start with the day when Arlan was born, or maybe from the day when Helena came to me and said she wouldn't be losing our child this time, and we would definitely have it," the King began, his thoughts drifting back to memories from the past. "After failing to conceive a child a few times, I never insisted on it, but she was adamant. She was trying everything she could. That day, she was especially happy, saying Amaya had helped her with something and that the child in her womb was healthy."

Oriana knew what her mother and the previous Queen had done.

"At that moment, I didn't understand what she meant or how Amaya had helped her. I was just content to see Helena happy when the Royal physician confirmed that the child inside her was absolutely fine. But then the day arrived when Helena was going to give birth, and that day, I understood exactly what she meant by 'Amaya had helped her.'"

"What happened?" Oriana asked, curiosity evident in her voice.
