Hey Aiden, you want some sweet peaches, this wonderful morning Aiden turns to see the old fruit seller with the green peaches in both hands. No sweet Old Lonalde, my wife must have prepared some broth this this morning dont want to keep her He silently drops the peaches in the foyer. Aiden reaches the foot of the stairs in front of his house, he had plucked some rose flowers in front of the town hall, Maia loved roses, shed be moody when one withers and dies, he was thinking of cultivating a rose garden for the fair maiden. He climbs the stairs and knocks at the door, smiling trying to envision the face of Maia when she sees these flowers, she knocks a second time and waits for a minute. He turns on his Inner eye and sees black auras around the door. No! He screams. He kicks the door in and the black aura seems like its emanating from a room upstairs, Maia!!! He yells Yet no answer, Selmo the stable boy runs in. Call me Gabore now! He orders the boy as he rushes into their bedroom, the sights alone makes him drop on his knees as tears stream down from his eyes. He cries out, sobbing bitterly, Maia was impaled on a spear, through her lower abdomen, killing the baby in the process, who could have done this. He rushes towards her pulling down her hair and hugging her, his tears, his tears drenching her hair, her blood drenching his hair.
