Capítulo 279: Please don't leave me, my love...

Celestia's POV: 

Sacrifice! I always thought that this was a noble thing to do. If one sacrifices himself for the greater good, then it is considered the noblest act ever. That is one of the reasons why I willingly gave up myself to the Holy Fire in my last birth. But this sacred word can be used to murder people too?!

The expression of the warriors got darkened. The head of the warrior clan stepped forward and said, "Your highness, we have to be the sacrifice for a good cause?! But what is the cause?"

I wanted to get into the mirror and appreciate the boldness of the warrior. Even though he was aware that the King was asking him to die, he was boldly asking about the quest instead of refusing to do the deed. 

"The Dawn must sacrifice her life for the welfare of this realm. But she will never agree to do that in her right mind."

I was stunned by my father's words—and so were the warriors in the mirror.
