Ishakan listened quietly and then shook out his tobacco, throwing the ashes into the tray on the nightstand.

“I mentioned that subject to her recently,” he said quietly. “There was an intense reaction. Her little body shuddered in pain, she couldnt even scream…”

Ishakan fell silent, hugging the Princess. Quelling his emotions, he spoke again, calm and serene.

“She told me she wanted to die. Is that a spell too?”

Morga couldnt keep the pitying expression from his face. Words as rough as thorns came from his throat.

“Thats… an instinctive defense mechanism.”

Ishakans cold stare encouraged Morga to keep talking.

“I think the Princess tried to overcome the spell in her own way. Unconsciously, she fought fiercely against the brainwashing, but was defeated each time, and in the end, she chose one method as a last stand…”

Unconsciously, she chose the only escape available to free her from the spell. Morgas lips trembled as he spoke.

“Death.”

The room was silent. Ishakans lips twitched in a faint smile, but his eyes remained impassive.

Morga shuddered, lowering his eyes to the ground. He didnt dare look his King in the face. He knew Ishakans anger wasnt directed at him, but his body still shuddered with fear. Cold sweat ran down his back and for a few moments, everything before his eyes went black. Perhaps feeling the energy coursing through the room, the Princess shifted, letting out a faint sound of protest.

The suffocating energy vanished in a blink, and Ishakan sighed as he caressed her.

“Im sorry. Im not mad at you, Morga.”

“I know…”

Morga, who had died and been resurrected, drew a shaking breath.

“Can I kill the Queen?” Ishakan asked.
