After a quick rest, you and Ethan had to continue onwards, you hoped that if you got out of this area that you could contact your team and be able to tell them that you were alright but needed to meet up soon to check something out and it was urgent.


Having to shoot the lock on the door and removing the chains you and Ethan had found yourselves inside a cave-like path, following it where it went there first was a little fish pond but you both ignored it and continued onwards, once you both climbed up the small ledge you began to hear someone speak in a chant.


"Who the fuck is that?" You asked.
"Might be that old woman I met at the village before I got inside the castle..." Ethan replied.
"Old woman?" You asked.


Walking up towards the door Ethan gently pushed it open and indeed the old woman stood there before...an alter?


"As the midnight moon rises on black wings, we await the light at the end...In life and in death, glory to Mother Miranda." The old woman finishes.
"Hey, remember me? I almost died up in that castle! And (Y/N) was nearly used for that woman's wine! Tell us what is going on around here!" Ethan explains to the woman.
"How can a man and woman be 'almost' dead? That's a question for the wise." The old woman tells him.
"You know what I mean. And I still haven't found Rose. Where did Mother Miranda take her?" Ethan asked trying to get information.
"You're too late! Or maybe... 'almost' too late? The child will be sacrificed. Life for life." The old woman says.
"What kind of sick medieval shit is this? She's just a baby!" Ethan explains.
"What the actual fuck!?" You whispered horrified.
"The crests of the four bloodlines may open the path you seek..." The old woman says.
"Will you please stop talking in riddles? I just wanna find my daughter." Ethan says.
"It's only a riddle if you don't know the answer." The old woman says then leaves as she laughs.


You however had walked up to the wall that held the symbols of the four houses and noticed something inside of it all...a familiar symbol that haunted your life since you were a teenager...a symbol that continued to be your reason to fight these certain things for a living.


'It can't be...' You thought.


But even so, you took your phone out quickly and began to take pictures sending them over to Chris hoping that it would actually go through better so that you could give whatever evidence you could get for any reports once this mission would finally end.


As you were busy checking over the wall, Ethan tried to get the old woman to stop so he could get any more information out of her but to no avail. Though he did remember that there was something she placed in that small box, once opened he realized it was a key and looked over up ahead to see the door that matched the key...guess that's their way out of here.


"(Y/N) come on, let's get out of here." Ethan sighed.
"Yeah, I need to get out and contact my team. Hopefully, the connection will be better there than the castle." You replied.


Using the key the two of you went through the gate and headed up the stairs to a heavy door that leads a leaver once more. Ethan took this chance to push it down as you waited there to open it since he made another rant about you being a pregnant woman and that you shouldn't touch heavy things.


'Yup my husband is gonna be worse than Ethan when he finds out...though that's only if what they say is true...' You thought.


When the doors opened the both of you were lead back outside but in a different area, looking around it kind of creeped you out since it looked like it is some sort of Ceremony Site and when you checked the village map...you were right.


"Good grief this is the Ceremony Site." You commented.
"You think this is where they'll take my daughter if we don't get to her in time...?" Ethan asked.
"We're gonna get her back Ethan, together." You replied firmly.
